Nadav Har'El 1634a64ffd cql-pytest: test a few small materialized views CQL issues
While documenting materialized view in a new document (Refs #16569)
I encountered a few questions on how various CQL operations work on
a table that has views, and this patch contains tests that clarify their
answer - and can later guarantee that the answer doesn't unintentionally
change in the future. The questions that these tests answer are:

1. That TRUNCATE on a base table also TRUNCATEs its views. This is just
   a basic test, with no attempt to reproduce issue #17635 (which is
   about the truncation of the base and views not being atomic).

2. That DROP TABLE is *not allowed* on a base table that has views.

3. That DROP KEYSPACE is allowed, even if there are tables with views.

4. Test that ALTER TABLE tbl DROP is never allowed in Cassandra, but
   allowed in some cases by Scylla

5. Test that ALTER TABLE tbl ADD is allowed, and "SELECT *" expands to
   select the new column into the materialized view as well.

All the new tests pass on both Scylla and Cassandra.

Scylla in-source tests.

For details on how to run the tests, see docs/dev/testing.md

Shared C++ utils, libraries are in lib/, for Python - pylib/

alternator - Python tests which connect to a single server and use the DynamoDB API unit, boost, raft - unit tests in C++ cql-pytest - Python tests which connect to a single server and use CQL topology* - tests that set up clusters and add/remove nodes cql - approval tests that use CQL and pre-recorded output rest_api - tests for Scylla REST API Port 9000 scylla-gdb - tests for scylla-gdb.py helper script nodetool - tests for C++ implementation of nodetool

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.
