release-23.1: roachtest: randomly run with runtime assertions by default #113894

Backport 2/2 commits from #111949.

/cc @cockroachdb/release

Release justification: test-only changes


This changes the semantics of t.Cockroach() to use a binary with runtime assertions enabled by default. Performance tests (indicated by the benchmark TestSpec) will be able to continue using the standard binary, without runtime assertions or metamorphic constants, as usual.

This commit also opts-out other tests that cannot easily be run with runtime assertions or metamorphic constants enabled, most often due to timeouts or metamorphic constant incompatibility.

Resolves #86678.
Informs #94986.

Epic: none

Release note: None

Thanks for opening a backport.

Please check the backport criteria before merging:

  • Backports should only be created for serious
    issues
    or test-only changes.
  • Backports should not break backwards-compatibility.
  • Backports should change as little code as possible.
  • Backports should not change on-disk formats or node communication protocols.
  • Backports should not add new functionality (except as defined
    here).
  • Backports must not add, edit, or otherwise modify cluster versions; or add version gates.
  • All backports must be reviewed by the owning areas TL and one additional
    TL. For more information as to how that review should be conducted, please consult the backport
    policy
    .
If your backport adds new functionality, please ensure that the following additional criteria are satisfied:
  • There is a high priority need for the functionality that cannot wait until the next release and is difficult to address in another way.
  • The new functionality is additive-only and only runs for clusters which have specifically “opted in” to it (e.g. by a cluster setting).
  • New code is protected by a conditional check that is trivial to verify and ensures that it only runs for opt-in clusters. State changes must be further protected such that nodes running old binaries will not be negatively impacted by the new state (with a mixed version test added).
  • The PM and TL on the team that owns the changed code have signed off that the change obeys the above rules.
  • Your backport must be accompanied by a post to the appropriate Slack
    channel (#db-backports-point-releases or #db-backports-XX-X-release) for awareness and discussion.

Also, please add a brief release justification to the body of your PR to justify this
backport.

We'll need to delete the lint:ignore SA1019 deprecated comment since 23.1 is still on Go 1.19.

Thanks for backporting!

Should we hold off on backporting this for now? Let's give it a couple of weeks on master and 23.2 to stabilize first (ideally, we would have done this only on master) so that we can shake issues like #113816 out.

Yep, we can wait longer; it was my idea to backport given that we had run all tests extensively during development of this feature. Let's wait until next week to merge this backport.
