Bug Description

What happened?

Auth type Inherit changes to None in OAuth 2.0 authorization after /oauth callback

Steps to reproduce?

You may have to import a sizeable number API collections to observe this behavior
Go to a child request, you will observe that the auth type is inherit
Go to the parent collection's properties and Generate Access Token
Save the access token after the /oauth callback
You will find that the auth type changes from inherit to none and even with a valid token you would not be able to hit the API
To verify the token was valid, you could copy the generated token and try a bearer request.

Root cause was a race condition in collection tree loading and auth inheritance computation. It has been addressed in the above PR - would appreciate a review.
