In the new Raft-based recovery procedure, live nodes join the new
group 0 one by one during a rolling restart. There is a time window when
some of them are in the old group 0, while others are in the new group
0. This causes a group 0 mismatch in `gossiper::handle_syn_msg`. The
current solution for this problem is to ignore group 0 mismatches if
`recovery_leader` is set on the local node and to ask the administrator
to perform the rolling restart in the following way:
- set `recovery_leader` in `scylla.yaml` on all live nodes,
- send the `SIGHUP` signal to all Scylla processes to reload the config,
- proceed with the rolling restart.
This commit makes `gossiper::handle_syn_msg` ignore group 0 mismatches
when exactly one of the two gossiping nodes has `recovery_leader` set.
We achieve this by adding `recovery_leader` to `gossip_digest_syn`.
This change makes setting `recovery_leader` earlier on all nodes and
reloading the config unnecessary. From now on, the administrator can
simply restart each node with `recovery_leader` set.
However, note that nodes that join group 0 must have `recovery_leader`
set until all nodes join the new group 0. For example, assume that we
are in the middle of the rolling restart and one of the nodes in the new
group 0 crashes. It must be restarted with `recovery_leader` set, or
else it would reject `gossip_digest_syn` messages from nodes in the old
group 0. To avoid problems in such cases, we will continue to recommend
setting `recovery_leader` in `scylla.yaml` instead of passing it as
a command line argument.

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.
