To find the raft group leader of a group, a node must be a member of this group. In a few test cases in test_strong_consistency.py we try to get the leader info without knowing raft group members, so we may initially fail and we retry on another node. This is inefficient - trying to get the leader from a non-member ends in a timeout for the leader check, so the test case takes an additional 60s. In this patch we avoid this by checking raft group members (i.e. tablet replicas) before trying to get the leader, and then only get the leader from one of the replicas. On average, this should speed up the test_strong_consistency.py by 85s. Fixes: SCYLLADB-2266 Fixes: SCYLLADB-2268 Closes scylladb/scylladb#30165

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.
