When `test_autoretrain_dict` was originally written, the default `sstable_compression_user_table_options` was `LZ4Compressor`. The test assumed (correctly) that initially the compression doesn't use a trained dictionary, and later in the test scenario, it changed the algorithm to one with a dictionary. However, the default `sstable_compression_user_table_options` is now `LZ4WithDictsCompressor`, so the old assumption is no longer correct. As a result, the assertion that data is initially not compressed well may or may not fail depending on dictionary training timing. To fix this, this commit explicitly sets `ZstdCompressor` as the initial `sstable_compression_user_table_options`, ensuring that the assumption that initial compression is without a dictionary is always met. Note: `ZstdCompressor` differs from the former default `LZ4Compressor`. However, it's a better choice — the test aims to show the benefit of using a dictionary, not the benefit of Zstd over LZ4 (and the test uses ZstdWithDictsCompressor as the algorithm with the dictionary). Fixes: https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/28204 Backport: 2025.4, as test already failed there (and also backport to 2026.1 to make everything consistent). Closes scylladb/scylladb#28625 * github.com:scylladb/scylladb: test: explicitly set compression algorithm in test_autoretrain_dict test: remove unneeded semicolons from python test

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.
