As discussed in
https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/12263#issuecomment-1853576813,
compact storage tables are deprecated.
Yet, there's is nothing in the code that prevents users
from creating such tables.
This patch adds a live-updateable config option:
`enable_create_table_with_compact_storage` that require users
to opt-in in order to create new tables WITH COMPACT STORAGE.
The option is currently set to `true` by default in db/config
to reduce the churn to tests and to `false` in scylla.yaml,
for new clusters.
TODO: once regressions tests that use compact storage
are converted to enable the option, change the default in
db/config to false.
A unit test was added to test/cql-pytest that
checks that the respective cql query fails as expected
with the default option or when it is explicitly set to `false`,
and that the query succeeds when the option is set to `true`.
Note that `check_restricted_table_properties` already
returns an optional warning, but it is only logged
but not returned in the `prepared_statement`.
Fixing that is out of the scope of this patch.
