Make this test look like 'test_compute_restart.sh' by @ololobus, which
was surprisingly good for checking safekeepers behavior. This test adds
an intermediate compute node start with bulk select that causes a lot of
FPI's and select itself wouldn't wait for all that WAL to be replicated.
So if we kill compute node right after that we end up with lagging safekeepers
with VCL != flush_lsn. And starting new node from that state takes special
care.
Also, run and print `pg_controldata` output after each compute node start
to eyeball lsn/checkpoint info of basebackup.
This commit only adds test without fixing the problem.
On my laptop, the server was receiving the token as a string with extra
b'...' escaping, e.g as "b'eyJ0....0ifQA'" instead of just "eyJ0....0ifQA".
That was causing the test to fail.
I'm using Python 3.9, while the CI is using Python 3.8. I suspect that's
why. My version of pyjwt might be different too.

Current state with authentication.
Page server validates JWT token passed as a password during connection
phase and later when performing an action such as create branch tenant
parameter of an operation is validated to match one submitted in token.
To allow access from console there is dedicated scope: PageServerApi,
this scope allows access to all tenants. See code for access validation in:
PageServerHandler::check_permission.
Because we are in progress of refactoring of communication layer
involving wal proposer protocol, and safekeeper<->pageserver. Safekeeper
now doesn’t check token passed from compute, and uses “hardcoded” token
passed via environment variable to communicate with pageserver.
Compute postgres now takes token from environment variable and passes it
as a password field in pageserver connection. It is not passed through
settings because then user will be able to retrieve it using pg_settings
or SHOW ..
I’ve added basic test in test_auth.py. Probably after we add
authentication to remaining network paths we should enable it by default
and switch all existing tests to use it.
