Split prepare can run concurrently with repair.
Consider this:
1) split prepare starts
2) incremental repair starts
3) split prepare finishes
4) incremental repair produces unsplit sstable
5) split is not happening on sstable produced by repair
5.1) that sstable is not marked as repaired yet
5.2) might belong to repairing set (has compaction disabled)
6) split executes
7) repairing or repaired set has unsplit sstable
If split was acked to coordinator (meaning prepare phase finished),
repair must make sure that all sstables produced by it are split.
It's not happening today with incremental repair because it disables
split on sstables belonging to repairing group. And there's a window
where sstables produced by repair belong to that group.
To solve the problem, we want the invariant where all sealed sstables
will be split.
To achieve this, streaming consumers are patched to produce unsealed
sstable, and the new variant add_new_sstable_and_update_cache() will
take care of splitting the sstable while it's unsealed.
If no split is needed, the new sstable will be sealed and attached.
This solution was also needed to interact nicely with out of space
prevention too. If disk usage is critical, split must not happen on
restart, and the invariant aforementioned allows for it, since any
unsplit sstable left unsealed will be discarded on restart.
The streaming consumer will fail if disk usage is critical too.
The reason interposer consumer doesn't fully solve the problem is
because incremental repair can start before split, and the sstable
being produced when split decision was emitted must be split before
attached. So we need a solution which covers both scenarios.
Fixes #26041.
Fixes #27414.
Should be backported to 2025.4 that contains incremental repair

Extension of the cluster tests, where all tests require externally mounted volumes to be used by scylla cluster nodes. The volumes are passed with --workdir.
The volumes can be of any size. A help generator space_limited_servers is provided
to easily create a cluster of any given number of nodes, where each node operates in
a separate volume.
