Łukasz Paszkowski 96a992002c tasks: fix busy-spin and shutdown hang in tablet_virtual_task::wait() for repair tasks
The condition variable predicate for repair tasks unconditionally
returned true (introduced in e5928497ce), which meant event.wait(pred)
never actually suspended: do_until checks the predicate first, and if
it's already satisfied, returns immediately without calling the inner
wait(). This caused two problems:
1. The while(true) loop busy-spun, polling without blocking between
   topology changes.
2. During shutdown, event.broken() had no effect because no waiter was
   registered on the CV. The loop kept spinning, holding the HTTP
   server's task gate open and preventing http_server::stop() from
   completing. After ~15 minutes, systemd killed the process with
   SIGABRT.

The fix replaces the synchronous predicate with an async task_finished()
helper that dispatches on the task type. Since the repair check is async
(for_each_tablet scans every tablet), we cannot use event.wait(Pred).
Instead, we register a waiter via event.wait() *before* running the async
check, ensuring no broadcast is missed during the check. event.broken()
during shutdown propagates broken_condition_variable to the registered
waiter and unblocks the loop promptly.

Shared C++ utils, libraries are in lib/, for Python - pylib/

alternator - Python tests which connect to a single server and use the DynamoDB API unit, boost, raft - unit tests in C++ cqlpy - Python tests which connect to a single server and use CQL topology* - tests that set up clusters and add/remove nodes cql - approval tests that use CQL and pre-recorded output rest_api - tests for Scylla REST API Port 9000 scylla-gdb - tests for scylla-gdb.py helper script nodetool - tests for C++ implementation of nodetool

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.
