The test has two major problems
1. Wrongly computed time windows. Data was not spread across two 1-minute
windows causing the test to generate even three sstables instead
of two
2. Timestamp was not propagated to the prepared CQL statements. So
in fact, a current time was used implicitly
3. Because of the incorrect timestamp issue, the remaining tests
testing purged tombstones were affected as well.

Python and Python developers don't like directory names to include a
minus sign, like "cql-pytest". In this patch we rename test/cql-pytest
to test/cqlpy, and also change a few references in other code (e.g., code
that used test/cql-pytest/run.py) and also references to this test suite
in documentation and comments.
Arguably, the word "test" was always redundant in test/cql-pytest, and
I want to leave the "py" in test/cqlpy to emphasize that it's Python-based
tests, contrasting with test/cql which are CQL-request-only approval
tests.

For a table with NullCompactionStrategy and
TimeWindowCompactionStrategy, the test
- inserts a bunch of data and flushes the table
- deletes/update some data, delete a range of data and flushes
the table
- Triggers a major compaction and calls for compactionhistory
to retrieve and validate the histogram
