Improves `wait_until` by:
* Use `timeout` instead of `iterations`. This allows changing the
timeout/interval parameters independently.
* Make `timeout` and `interval` optional (default 20s and 0.5s). Most
callers don't care.
* Only output status every 1s by default, and add optional
`status_interval` parameter.
* Remove `show_intermediate_error`, this was always emitted anyway.
Most callers have been updated to use the defaults, except where they
had good reason otherwise.
## Problem
We're adding more third party dependencies to support more diverse +
realistic test cases in `test_runner/logical_repl`. I ❤️ these
tests, they are a good thing.
The slight glitch is that python packaging is hard, and some third party
python packages have issues. For example the current kafka dependency
doesn't work on latest python. We can mitigate that by only importing
these more specialized dependencies in the tests that use them.
## Summary of changes
- Move the `kafka` import into a test body, so that folks running the
regular `test_runner/regress` tests don't have to have a working kafka
client package.
## Problem
We need to test the logical replication with some external consumers.
## Summary of changes
A test of the logical replication with Debezium as a consumer was added.
