Before submitting the original PR I tried to determine if a `Pending` check was necessary. Apparently not well enough. It is indeed but the situation requires subscriptions to be fired synchronously within a subscription. Multiple atoms can be used to acheive this.

since atom.get() does an if check already it's probably okay to just drop this if entirely? Thoughts?

Give it a try; if the tests pass I'd say it's safe
The `.get()` call already does the necessary dirty checks so we can unconditionally call it

Fix synchronous subscribe callbacks still not re-running if a subscription triggers another one through multiple levels of computed atoms.
Turns out checking for the
dirtystate wasn't enough — I needed to check for the pending state as well.Essentially the following test currently fails but now passes after this PR:
This happens because b1's subscription callback runs during a1's subscription callback (which the previous PR handled) but the state of the atom is different in this particular case.
