This commit addresses an issue where accessing the raw pointer of the
schema instance within `table::_schema` using `table.schema._p` was
unreliable.
before this change, `_p` was of type `lw_shared_ptr_counter_base*`, a
type-erased smart pointer, preventing direct casting to the underlying
schema pointer. but we still cast it to `schema*` anyway. this led to
a gdb.MemoryError when dereferencing the deduced pointer:
but the type of `_p` is `lw_shared_ptr_counter_base*`, which is a
type erased smart pointer, and it cannot be casted directly to the
under pointer pointing to a `schema` instance. this results in:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/avi/scylla/test/scylla_gdb/../../scylla-gdb.py", line 5554, in invoke
self.print_key_type(seastar_lw_shared_ptr(schema['_clustering_key_type']).get().dereference(), 'clustering')

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
gdb.MemoryError: Cannot access memory at address 0x4000079656b0078
```
when we are dereferencing the raw pointer deduced this way.
in this change,
* we use the wrapper of `seastar_lw_shared_ptr` to safely obtain the
raw pointer.
* reenable this test previously disabled by 3d781c4f

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.
