This patch adds the missing IndexStatus and Backfilling fields for the GSIs listed by a DescribeTable request. These fields allow an application to check whether a GSI has been fully built (IndexStatus=ACTIVE) or currently being built (IndexStatus=CREATING, Backfilling=true). This feature is necessary when a GSI can be added to an existing table so its backfilling might take time - and the application might want to wait for it. One test - test_gsi.py::test_gsi_describe_indexstatus - begins to pass with this fix, so the xfail tag is removed from it. Fixes #11471. Signed-off-by: Nadav Har'El <nyh@scylladb.com>

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.
