Tomasz Grabiec eef798d84f Merge 'Distribute data evenly among primary replicas during restore' from Robert Bindar
Most likely 817fdad uncovered the fact that our choice of primary replica was resonating with tablet allocation and we were ending up picking the same replica as primary within a scope instead of rotating primaryship among all replicas in the scope.
This created situations where for instance, restoring into a 9 nodes with primary_replica_only=true would put all data into 3 nodes, leaving the other 6 unused. The balancing of the dataset was performed by the subsequent repair step.

This PR fixes this by changing the formula for picking up the primary replica out of a set of eligible replicas from within the passed scope.
The PR also extends the testing scenarios in `test_backup.py` so we get to run restore for a set of topologies, for all combinations of scope, primary_replica_only and min_tablet_counts.
Most of the work was done by @bhalevy [here](https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/compare/master...bhalevy:scylla:load-balance-primary-replica), this PR just splitted it and did touchups here and there.

Fixes #27281

Closes scylladb/scylladb#27397
