In the current scenario, if during startup, a node crashes after initiating gossip and before joining group0,
then it keeps floating in the gossiper forever because the raft based gossiper purging logic is only effective
once node joins group0. This orphan node hinders the successor node from same ip to join cluster since it collides
with it during gossiper shadow round.
This commit intends to fix this issue by adding a background thread which periodically checks for such orphan entries in
gossiper and removes them.
A test is also added in to verify this logic. This test fails without this background thread enabled, hence
verifying the behavior.

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.
