Github actions failing because cluster setup hangs

[Michal-Leszczynski]

Recently some github actions runs are failing because they reach the 6h timeout on cluster creation step. Example:

2023-12-05T23:00:23.7152983Z ==> Waiting for first nodes from DC1 and DC2 to spin up
2023-12-06T04:59:54.8577560Z ##[error]The operation was canceled.

It would be nice to know if the root cause is connected to:

• Scylla regression (from what I have seen, this only happens with Scylla 5.2.X)
• SM cluster setup script
• github actions runners

• Scylla regression (from what I have seen, this only happens with Scylla 5.2.X)

5.2 is so yesterday. How's 5.4 doing?

I will include it in our test matrix and see the results.
