When test_exception_safety_of_update_from_memtable was converted from
manual fail_after()/catch to with_allocation_failures() in 74db08165d,
the populate_range() call ended up inside the failure injection scope
without a scoped_critical_alloc_section guard. The other two tests
converted in the same commit (test_exception_safety_of_transitioning...
and test_exception_safety_of_partition_scan) were correctly guarded.
Without the guard, the allocation failure injector can sometimes
target an allocation point inside the cleanup path of populate_range().
In a rare corner case, this triggers a bad_alloc in a noexcept context
(reader_concurrency_semaphore::stop()), causing std::terminate.
Fixes SCYLLADB-1346

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).
To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then
copy & edit its suite.ini.
