_tasks is currently std::list<shared_ptr<compaction_task_executor>>, but
it has no role in keeping the instances alive, this is done by the
fibers which create the task (and pin a shared ptr instance).
This lends itself to an intrusive list, avoiding that extra
allocation upon push_back().
Using an intrusive list also makes it simpler and much cheaper (O(1) vs.
O(N)) to remove tasks from the _tasks list. This will be made use of in
the next patch.
Code using _task has to be updated because the value_type changes from
shared_ptr<compaction_task_executor> to compaction_task_executor&.

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.
