Currently, when a container or smart pointer holds a const payload
type, utils::clear_gently does not detect the object's clear_gently
method as the method is non-const and requires a mutable object,
as in the following example in class tablet_metadata:
```
using tablet_map_ptr = foreign_ptr<lw_shared_ptr<const tablet_map>>;
using table_to_tablet_map = std::unordered_map<table_id, tablet_map_ptr>;
```
That said, when a container is cleared gently the elements it holds
are destroyed anyhow, so we'd like to allow to clear them gently before
destruction.
This change still doesn't allow directly calling utils::clear_gently
an const objects.
And respective unit tests.
Fixes #24605

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.
