DynamoDB normalizes Number values, so different string representations
of the same number (e.g., "1000" vs "1e3") should be treated as the
same value in all contexts.
In Alternator this is true in most cases, thanks to implicit normalization in
Decimal `to_string()` function.
However this is fragile - and in fact this function should be fixed
due to OOM vulnerability in CQL use (#8002).
This patch adds tests that should prevent regression in cases
that work currently.
Unfortunately not all contexts work currently - mainly the HASH keys
are not normalized and backend handles them by byte representation.
Added test replicate this incorrect behaviour
All added tests pass with DynamoDB, with one exception: weirdly
DynamoDB doesn't recognise unnormalized numbers in BatchGetItem
as duplicate keys.

Migrate runtime pytest.skip() calls across 34 files to use the typed
skip_env() wrapper from test.pylib.skip_types.
These sites skip at runtime because a required feature, config option,
library version, build mode, or runtime topology is not available.
Also fixes 'raise pytest.skip(...)' in test_audit.py — skip_env()
already raises internally, so the explicit raise was incorrect.
Each file gains one new import:
from test.pylib.skip_types import skip_env
With the latest changes, there are a lot of code that is redundant in the test.py. This PR just cleans this code.
Also, it narrows using dynamic scope for fixtures to test/alternator and test/cqlpy. All the rest by default will have module scope.
test.py will be a wrapper for pytest mostly for CI use. As for now test.py have important part of calculating the number of threads to start pytest with. This is not possible to do in pytest itself.
No backport needed, framework enhancement only.

With migration to pyest this fixture is useless. Removing and setting
the session to the module for the most of the tests.
Add dynamic_scope function to support running alternator fixtures in
session scope, while Test and TestSuite are not deleted. This is for
migration period, later on this function should be deleted.
The new_dynamodb_session() function had a bug which we never noticed
because we hardly used it, but it became more noticable when the new
test/alternator/test_vector.py started to use it:
By default, boto3 retries a request up to 9 times when it encounters
a retriable error (such as an Internal Server Error). We don't want such
retries in our tests - it makes failures slower, but more importantly
it can hide "flaky" bugs by retrying 9 times until it happens to succeed.
The new_dynamodb_session() had code (copied from the dynamodb fixture)
to set boto3's "max_attempts" configuration to 0, to disable this retry.
But this code had an incorrect "if" to only be done if we're testing on
"localhost". This is wrong: We almost never use "localhost" as the
target of the test; Both test/cqlpy/run and test.py pick an IP address
in the localhost subnet (127/8) and uses that IP address - not the string
"localhost".
This bug only existed in new_dynamodb_session() - the more commonly used
"dynamodb" fixture didn't have this bug.

Add skip_reason_plugin.py — a framework-agnostic pytest plugin that
provides typed skip markers (skip_bug, skip_not_implemented, skip_slow,
skip_env) so that the reason a test is skipped is machine-readable in
JUnit XML and Allure reports. Bare untyped pytest.mark.skip now
triggers a warning (to become an error after full migration). Runtime
skips via skip() are also enriched by parsing the [type] prefix from
the skip message.
The plugin is a class (SkipReasonPlugin) that receives the concrete
SkipType enum and an optional report_callback from conftest.py, keeping
it decoupled from allure and project-specific types.
Extract SkipType enum and convenience runtime skip wrappers (skip_bug,
skip_env, etc.) into test/pylib/skip_types.py so callers only need a
single import instead of importing both SkipType and skip() separately.
conftest.py imports SkipType from the new module and registers the
plugin instance unconditionally (for all test runners).
New files:
- test/pylib/skip_reason_plugin.py: core plugin — typed marker
processing, bare-skip warnings, JUnit/Allure report enrichment
(including runtime skip() parsing via _parse_skip_type helper)
- test/pylib/skip_types.py: SkipType enum and convenience wrappers
(skip_bug, skip_not_implemented, skip_slow, skip_env)
- test/pylib_test/test_skip_reason_plugin.py: 17 pytester-based
test functions (51 cases across 3 build modes) covering markers,
warnings, reports, callbacks, and skip_mode interaction
Infrastructure changes:
- test/conftest.py: import SkipType from skip_types, register
SkipReasonPlugin with allure report callback
- test/pylib/runner.py: set SKIP_TYPE_KEY/SKIP_REASON_KEY stash keys
for skip_mode so the report hook can enrich JUnit/Allure with
skip_type=mode without longrepr parsing
- test/pytest.ini: register typed marker definitions (required for
--strict-markers even when plugin is not loaded)
Migrated test files (representative samples):
- test/cluster/test_tablet_repair_scheduler.py:
skip -> skip_bug (#26844), skip -> skip_not_implemented
- test/cqlpy/.../timestamp_test.py: skip -> skip_slow
- test/cluster/dtest/schema_management_test.py: skip -> skip_not_implemented
- test/cluster/test_change_replication_factor_1_to_0.py: skip -> skip_bug (#20282)
- test/alternator/conftest.py: skip -> skip_env
- test/alternator/test_https.py: use skip_env() wrapper

Add explicit default values to pytest command line options to prevent
issues when running tests with pytest's parallel execution where
options are not present on upper conftest, so they're just not set at all.
The test test_compressed_request.py::test_compressed_request coerces
boto3 to send a compressed request, and wrongly used region_name=us-east-1
to set up the connection. Theoretically, this doesn't matter because
we also set the correct URL (for either Alternator or the desired region
in AWS). But in fact it does matter, because region name is part of the
request's signature, and DynamoDB refuses the request if it comes to
a different region than it is signed for. So this test fails when run
on DynamoDB on any other region except us-east-1.
The fix is simple - don't use the constant "us-east-1", but pick up the
correct region name from the original connection.
The functions new_dynamodb_session(), new_dynamodb() and
new_dynamodb_stremas() had the same bug and we fix it too, but it didn't
break any test because the only tests using these functions were
Scylla-only so the AWS region problem didn't apply to them.
As noticed in issue #26079, the Alternator test
test_number.py::test_invalid_numbers failed on DynamoDB, because one of
the things it did, as a "sanity check", was to check that the number
0e1000 was a valid number. But it turns out it isn't allowed by
DynamoDB.
So this patch removes 0e1000 from the list of *valid* numbers in
test_invalid_numbers, and instead creates a whole new test for the
case of 0e1000.
It turns out that DynamoDB has a bug (it appears to be a regression,
because test_invalid_numbers used to pass on DynamoDB!) where it
allows 0.0e1000 (since it's just zero, really!) but forbids 0e1000
which is incorrectly considered to have a too-large magnitude.
So we introduce a test that confirms that Alternator correctly allows
both 0.0e1000 and 0e1000. DynamoDB fails this test (it allows the
first, forbidding the second), making it the first Alternator test
tagged as a "dynamodb_bug".

Some test suites have own test runners based on pytest, and they
don't need all stuff we use for test.py. Move all code related to
test.py framework to test/pylib/runner.py and use it as a plugin
conditionally (by using TEST_RUNNER variable.)
Before this patch, we had in test_condition_expression.py and
test_update_expression.py some rudimentary tests that the different
write isolation modes behave as expected. Basically, we wanted to test
that read-modify-write (RMW) operations are recognized and forbidden
in forbid_rmw mode, but work correctly in the three other modes.
We only check non-concurrent writes, so the actual write isolation is
NOT checked, just the correctness of non-concurrent writes.
However, since these tests were split across several files, and many
of the tests just ran other existing tests in different write isolation
modes, it was hard to see what exactly was being tested, and what was
missed. And indeed we missed checking some RMW operations, such as
requests with ReturnValues, requests with the older Expected or
AttributeUpdates (only the newer ConditionExpression and UpdateExpression
were tested), and ADD and DELETE operations in UpdateExpression.
So this patch replaces the existing partial tests with a new test file
test_write_isolation.py dedicated to testing all kinds of RMW operations
in one place, and how they don't work in forbid_rmw and do work in
the other modes. Writing all these tests in one place made it easier
to create a really exhaustive test of all the different operations and
optional parameters, and conversely - make sure that we don't test
*unnecessary* things such as different ConditionExpression expressions
(we already have 1800 lines of tests for ConditionExpression, and the
actual content of the condition is unrelated to write isolation modes).

In the Alternator tests we check (in dynamodb_test_connect()) after
every test that the server is still alive, so we can blaim the test
that just ran if it crashes the server. We check the server's health
using a simple GET response, which works on both DynamoDB and
Alternator, e.g.,
```
$ curl http://dynamodb.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/
healthy: dynamodb.us-east-2.amazonaws.com
```
However, it turns out that new versions of DynamoDB Local - Amazon's
local mock of DynamoDB, for some reason insists that all requests -
including this health check - must be signed, so our unsigned health
request is rejected with error 400, saying the request must be signed.
So the current code which insists that the response have error code
200, fails and the test incorrectly things that DynamoDB Local crashed
during the test.
The fix is trivial: Just don't check that the error code is 200.
Any HTTP response from the server means it is still alive! If the
server is not alive, we will get an exception, not any HTTP response,
and this will lead the code to the "server has crashed" case.

When the Alternator tests run against Scylla, they figure out (using
CQL) the correct username and password needed to connect. When it can't,
we fell back to some silly pair 'unknown_user', 'unknown_secret',
assuming that the server won't check it anyway.
It turns out that if we want to run tests against new version of
DynamoDB Local (Amazon's local mock of DynamoDB), it indeed doesn't
authentication, but starting in DynamoDB Local 2.0, it does check that
the access key ID (the username) itself is valid, and considers
"unknown_user" to be invalid because it contains an underscore -
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID must only contains letters and numbers.
See https://repost.aws/articles/ARc4hEkF9CRgOrw8kSMe6CwQ/ for Amazon's
explanation for this change in DynamoDB Local 2.
The trivial fix is to remove the underscore from the silly username.
After this patch, Alternator tests can connect to DynamoDB Local.
They still can't complete correctly - this will be fixed in the next
patch.

Add the `host` fixture which uses `PythonTest.run_ctx()` context manager
to setup and teardown ScyllaDB node if `--test-py-init` argument is used.
Otherwise, this fixture returns a value of `--host` CLI argument.
Use dynamic scope provided by `testpy_test_fixture_scope()` function
instead of `session` to maintain compatibility with test.py and ./run
scripts.
Convert `get_valid_alternator_role()` to fixture to have more control
on the scope of the cache used.
Additionally, function `new_dynamodb_session()` was also converted to
a fixture, because it uses `get_valid_alternator_role()`.
Add 3 supplementary functions to `test.pylib.suite.python`:
`add_host_option()` (which adds `--host` options to pytest session),
`add_cql_connection_options()` (which adds `--port`, and `--ssl`),
and `--add-s3-options` (which adds options related to S3 connection.)
Each function decorated with `@cache` decorator to be executed once per
pytest session and avoid CLI options duplication for runs which
executes `alternator`, `cqlpy`, `rest_api`, or `broadcast_tables`
in one pytest session.
Remove `--omit-scylla-output` CLI option from pytest argparser.
Instead, remove it from `sys.argv` in `cqlpy/run.py`. Also, no need
to check this option in `alternator/run`.
The cqlpy and alternator test frameworks use a single Scylla node started
once for all tests to run on. In the distant past, we had a problem where
if one test caused Scylla to crash, the result was a confusing report of
hundreds of failed tests - all tests after the crash "failed" and it wasn't
easy to find which test really caused the crash.
Our old solution to this problem was to have an autouse fixture (called
cql_test_connection or dynamodb_test_connection) which tested the
connection at the end of each test, and if it detected Scylla has
crashed - it used pytest.exit() to report the error and have pytest
exit and therefore stop running any further tests (which would have
led to all of them testing).
This approach had two problems:
1. The pytest.exit() caused the entire cqlpy suite to report a failure,
but but not the individual test - the individual test might have
failed as well, but that isn't guaranteed and in any case this test's
output is missing the informative message that Scylla crashed during
the test. This was fine when for each cqlpy failure we had two separate
error logs in Jenkins - the specific failed function, and the failed
file - but when we recently got rid of the suplication by removing the
second one, we no longer see the "Scylla crashed" messages any more.
2. Exiting pytest will be the wrong thing to do if the same pytest
run could run tests from different test suites. We don't do this
today, but we plan to support this approach soon.
This patch fixes both problems by replacing the pytest.exit() call by
setting a "scylla_crashed" flag and using pytest.fail(). The pytest.fail()
causes the current test - the one which caused Scylla to crash - to be
reported as an "ERROR" and the "Scylla crashed" message will correctly
appear in this test's log. The flag will cause all other tests in the
same test suite to be skip()ed. But other tests in other directories,
depending on different fixtures, might continue to run normally.

On our testing infrastructure, tests often run a hundred times (!)
slower than usual, for various reasons that we can't always avoid.
This is why all our test frameworks drastically increase the default
timeouts.
We forgot to increase the timeout in one place - where Alternator tests
use CQL. This is needed for the Alternator role-based access control
(RBAC) tests, which is configured via CQL and therefore the Alternator
test unusually uses CQL.
So in this patch we increase the timeout of CQL driver used by
Alternator tests to the same high timeouts (60-120 seconds) used by
the regular CQL tests. As the famous saying goes, these timeouts should
be enough for anyone.

For a long time now, we've been seeing (see #17564), once in a while,
Alternator tests crashing with the Python process getting killed on
SIGSEGV after the tests have already finished successfully and all
pytest had to do is exit. We have not been able to figure out where the
bug is. Unfortunately, we've never been able to reproduce this bug
locally - and only rarely we see it in CI runs, and when it happens
we don't any information on why it happend.
So the goal of this patch is to print more information that might
hopefully help us next time we see this problem in CI (this patch
does NOT fix the bug). This patch adds to test/alternator's conftest.py
a call to faulthandler.enable(). This traps SIGSEGV and prints a stack
trace (for each thread, if there are several) showing what Python was
trying to do while it is crashing. Hopefully we'll see in this output
some specific cleanup function belonging to boto3 or urllib or whatever,
and be able to figure out where the bug is and how to avoid it.
We could have added this faulthandler.enable() call to the top-level
conftest.py or to test.py, but since we only ever had this Python
crash in Alternator tests, I think it is more suitable that we limit
this desperate debugging attempt only to Alternator tests.

One of the design goals of the Alternator test suite (test/alternator)
is that developers should be able to run the tests against some already
running installation by running `cd test/alternator; pytest [--url ...]`.
Some of our presentations and documents recommend running Alternator
via docker as:
docker run --name scylla -d -p 8000:8000 scylladb/scylla:latest
--alternator-port=8000 --alternator-write-isolation=always
This only makes port 8000 available to the host - the CQL port is
blocked. We had a bug in conftest.py's get_valid_alternator_role()
which caused it to fail (and fail every single test) when CQL is
not available. What we really want is that when CQL is not available
and we can't figure out a correct secret key to connect to Alternator,
we just try a connect with a fake key - and hope that the option
alternator-enforce-authorization is turned off. In fact, this is what
the code comments claim was already happening - but we failed to
handle the case that CQL is not available at all.
After this patch, one can run Alternator with the above docker
command, and then run tests against it.
By the way, this provides another way for running any old release of
Scylla and running Alternator tests against it. We already supported
a similar feature via test/alternator/run's "--release" option, but
its implementation doesn't use docker.

For several years now, we have seen a strange, and very rare, flakiness
in Alternator tests described in issue #17564: We see all the test pass,
pytest declares them to have passed, and while Python is existing, it
crashes with a signal 11 (SIGSEGV). Because this happens exclusively in
test/alternator and never in the test/cqlpy, we suspect that something
that the test/alternator leaves behind but test/cqlpy does not, causes
some race and crashes during shutdown.
The immediate suspect is the boto3 library, or rather, the urllib3 library
which it uses. This is more-or-less the only thing that test/alternator
does which test/cqlpy doesn't. The urllib3 library keeps around pools of
reusable connections, and it's possible (although I don't actually have any
proof for it) that these open connections may cause a crash during shutdown.
So in this patch I add to the "dynamodb" and "dynamodbstreams" fixtures
(which all Alternator tests use to connect to the server), a teardown which
calls close() for the boto3 client object. This close() call percolates
down to calling clear() on urllib3's PoolManager. Hopefully, this will
make some difference in the chance to crash during shutdown - and if it
doesn't, it won't hurt.

Most Alternator test use only the DynamoDB API, not CQL. Tests in
test_cql_rbac.py did need CQL to set up roles and RBAC, so this file
introduced a "cql" fixture to make CQL requests.
A recently-introduced test/alternator/test_service_levels.py also
needs access to CQL - it currently uses it for misguided reasons but
the next patch will need it for creating a role and a service level.
So instead of duplicating this fixture, let's move this fixture into
test/alternator/conftest.py that all Alternator tests can share.
The next patch will clean up this duplication in test_service_levels.py

For the benefit of running test.py inside CI, we recently added to
test/cql-pytest and test/alternator the knowledge of which "Scylla mode"
(--mode) and "run number" is running (--run_id), although these concepts
are alien to these two test frameworks (remember that those test frameworks
can also run tests against unknown versions of Scylla or even our competitors'
implementations).
One unfortunate result of this change is that now if you run a test by
using pytest directly (or test/*/run) instead of test.py, for example:
$ cd test/alternator
$ pytest --aws test_item.py::test_basic_string_put_and_get
The test's success or failure reports the ugly name
test_item.py::test_basic_string_put_and_get.no_mode.1
This unnecessary "no_mode.1" come from the the default values for --mode
and --run_id, respectively. But there is no reason for these silly
defaults. In this patch we change these defaults to None, and when they
are None, they aren't tacked onto the test's name.
This patch shouldn't affect running tests through test.py, because
test.py always sets the --mode and --run_id options, and doesn't leave
them as the default.

The Alternator test suite usually runs on a specific configuration of
Scylla set up by test.py or test/alternator/run. However, we do consider
it an important design goal of this test suite that developers should be
able to run these tests against any DynamoDB-API implementation, including
any version Scylla manually run by the developer in *any way* he or she
pleases.
The recent commit dc80b5dafe changed the way
we retrieve the configured autentication key, which is needed if Scylla is
run with --alternator-enforce-authorization. However, the new code assumed
that Scylla was also run with
--authenticator PasswordAuthenticator --authorizer CassandraAuthorizer
so that the default role of "cassandra" has a valid, non-null, password
(namely, "cassandra"). If the developer ran Scylla manually without
these options, the test initialization code broke, and all tests in the
suite failed.
This patch fixes this breakage. You can now run the Alternator test
suite against Scylla run manually without any of the aforementioned
options, and everything will work except some tests in test_authorization.py
will fail as expected.
This patch has no affect on the usual test.py or test/alternator/run
runs, as they already run Scylla with all the aforementioned options
and weren't exposed to the problem fixed here.

As part of the Alternator test suite, we check Alternator's support for
authentication. Alternator maps Scylla's existing CQL roles to AWS's
authentication:
* AWS's access_key_id <- the name of the CQL role
* AWS's secret_access_key <- the salted hash of the password of the CQL role
Before this patch, the Alternator test suite created a new role with a
preset salted hash (role "alternator", salted hash "secret_pass")
and than used that in the tests. However, with the advent of Raft-based
metadata it is wrong to write directly to the roles table, and starting
with #17952 such writes will be outright forbidden.
But we don't actually need to create a new CQL role! We already have
a perfectly good CQL role called "cassandra", and our tests already use
it. So what this patch does is to have the Alternator tests (conftest.py)
read from the roles system-table the salted hash of the "cassandra" role,
and then use that - instead of the hard-coded pair alternator/secret_pass -
in the tests.
A couple more tests assumed that the role name that was used was
"alternator", but now it was changed to "cassandra" so those tests
needed minor fixes as well.
After this patch, the Alternator tests no longer *write* to the roles
system table. Moreover, after this patch, test/alternator/run and
test/alternator/suite.yaml (used when testing with test.py) no longer
need to do extra ugly CQL setup before starting the Alternator tests.

If an Alternator table uses tablets (we'll turn this on in a following
patch), some tests are known to fail because of features not yet
supported with tablets, namely:
Refs #16317 - Support Alternator Streams with tablets (CDC)
Refs #16567 - Support Alternator TTL with tablets
This patch changes all tests failing on tablets due to one of these two
known issues to explicitly ask to disable tablets when creating their
test table. This means that at least we continue to test these two
features (Streams and TTL) even if they don't yet work with tablets.
We'll need to remember to remove this override when tablet support
for CDC and Alternator TTL arrives. I left a comment in the right
places in the code with the relevant issue numbers, to remind us what
to change when we fix those issues.
This patch also adds xfail_tablets and skip_tablets fixtures that can
be used to xfail or skip tests when running with tablets - but we
don't use them yet - and may never use them, but since I already wrote
this code it won't hurt having it, just in case. When running without
tablets, or against an older Scylla or on DynamoDB, the tests with
these marks are run normally.

The Alternator tests can run against HTTPS - namely when using
test/alternator/run with the "--https" option (local Alternator
configured with HTTPS) or "--aws" option (DynamoDB, using HTTPS).
In some cases we make these HTTPS requests with verify=False, to avoid
checking the SSL certificates. E.g., this is necessary for Alternator
with a self-signed certificate. Unfortunately, the urllib3 library adds
an ugly warning message when SSL certificate verification is disabled.
In the past we tried to disable these warnings, using the documented
urllib3.disable_warnings() function, but it didn't help. It turns out
that pytest has its own warning handling, so to disable warnings in
pytest we must say so in a special configuration parameter in pytest.ini.
So in this patch, we drop the disable_warnings call from conftest.py
(where it didn't help), and instead put a similar declaration in
pytest.ini. The disable_warnings call in the test/alternator/run
script needs to remain - it is run outside pytest, so pytest.ini
doesn't affect it.
After this patch, running test/alternator/run with --https or --aws

We had a skipped test on how Alternator handles Limit=0 for ListStreams
which should be reported as an error. We had to skip it because boto3

checking in boto3, but only used it for the "dynamodb" fixture and
forgot to copy the same trick to the "dynamodbstreams" fixture - and
in this patch we do, and can run this test successfully.
While at it, also copy the extented timeout configuration we had in
the dynamodb fixture also to the dynamodbstreams fixture. There is
no reason why it should be different.

The output of test/alternator/run ends in Scylla's full log file, where
it is hard to understand which log messages are related to which test.
In this patch, we add a log message (using the new /system/log REST API)
every time a test is started and ends.
The messages look like this:
INFO 2022-08-29 18:07:15,926 [shard 0] api - /system/log:
test/alternator: Starting test_ttl.py::test_describe_ttl_without_ttl
...
INFO 2022-08-29 18:07:15,930 [shard 0] api - /system/log:

This reverts commit 8e892426e2 and fixes
the code in a different way:
That commit moved the scylla_inject_error function from
test/alternator/util.py to test/cql-pytest/util.py and renamed
test/alternator/util.py. I found the rename confusing and unnecessary.
Moreover, the moved function isn't even usable today by the test suite
that includes it, cql-pytest, because it lacks the "rest_api" fixture :-)
so test/cql-pytest/util.py wasn't the right place for it anyway.
test/rest_api/rest_util.py could have been a good place for this function,
but there is another complication: Although the Alternator and rest_api
tests both had a "rest_api" fixture, it has a different type, which led
to the code in rest_api which used the moved function to have to jump
through hoops to call it instead of just passing "rest_api".
I think the best solution is to revert the above commit, and duplicate
the short scylla_inject_error() function. The duplication isn't an
exact copy - the test/rest_api/rest_util.py version now accepts the
"rest_api" fixture instead of the URL that the Alternator version used.
In the future we can remove some of this duplication by having some
shared "library" code but we should do it carefully and starting with
agreeing on the basic fixtures like "rest_api" and "cql", without that
it's not useful to share small functions that operate on them.

Closes#11275
Move scylla_inject_error from alternator/ to cql-pytest/ so it
can be reached from various tests dirs. alternator/util.py is
renamed to alternator/alternator_util.py to avoid name shadowing.
Python has deprecated the distutils package. In several places in the
Alternator and Redis test suites, we used distutils.version to check if
the library is new enough for running the test (and skip the test if
it's too old). On new versions of Python, we started getting deprecation
warnings such as:
DeprecationWarning: The distutils package is deprecated and slated for
removal in Python 3.12. Use setuptools or check PEP 632 for potential
alternatives
PEP 632 recommends using package.version instead of distutils.version,
and indeed it works well. After applying this patch, Alternator and
Redis test runs no long end in silly deprecation warnings.

In test_tracing.py and util.py, we already have three duplicates of code
which looks for the Scylla REST API. We'll soon want to add even more uses
of this REST API, so it's good time to add a single fixture, "rest_api",
which can be use in all tests that need the Scylla REST API instead of
duplicating the same code.
A test using the "rest_api" fixture will be skipped if the server isn't
Scylla, or its port 10000 is not available or not responsive.

Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.
Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.
The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.
Closes#9937
Extract a boolean function is_aws() out of the "scylla_only" fixture, so
it can be used in tests for other purposes.
For example, in the next patch the TTL tests will use them to pick
different timeouts on AWS (where TTL expiration have huge many-minute
delays) and on Scylla (which can be configured to have very short delays).

Before this patch, if Scylla crashes during some test in test/alternator,
all tests after it will fail because they can't connect to Scylla - and we
can get a report on hundreds of failures without a clear sign of where the
real problem was.
This patch introduces an autouse fixture (i.e., a fixture automatically
used by every test) which tries to run a do-nothing health-check request
after each test. If this health-check request fails, we conclude that
Scylla crashed and report the test in which this happened - and exit
pytest instead of failing a hundred more tests.
The failure report looks something like this:
```
! _pytest.outcomes.Exit: Scylla appears to have crashed in test test_batch.py::test_batch_get_item !
```
And the entire test run fails.
These extra health checks are not free, but they come fairly close to
being free: In my tests I measured less than 0.1 seconds slowdown of
the entire test suite (which has 618 tests) caused by the extra health
checks.

Ever since we started testing Alternator with tests written in Python
and using Amazon's "boto3" library, one limitation kept annoying us:
Boto3 verifies the validity of the request parameters before passing
them on to the server. It verifies that mandatory parameters are not
missing, that parameters have the right types, and sometimes even the
right ranges - all in the library before ever sending the request.
This meant that in many cases, we couldn't get good test coverage for
Alternator's server-side handling of *wrong* parameters.
As it turns out, it is trivial to tell boto3 to *not* do its client-side
request validation, with the `parameter_validation=False` config flag.
We just never noticed that such a flag existed :-)
So this patch adds this flag. It then fixes a few tests which expected
ParameterValidationError - this error is the client-side validation
failure, but should now be replaced by checking the server-side error.
The patch also adds a couple of invalid parameter checks that we
couldn't do before because of boto3's eagerness to check them on the
client side. We can add a lot more of these error tests in the future,
now that we got rid of client-side validation.
