Aleksei Sviridkin a66907f535 fix(backups): share the walkthrough wait helpers and fix the S3 preflight cleanup (#4635)
## What this PR does

This fixes the S3 access preflight and a few backup walkthroughs, and
moves the walkthrough wait helpers into one shared file.

The access preflight now keeps its evidence and cleans up after itself.
When `mc alias set` failed, it dropped the port-forward log, and now it
prints it like the other exits do. The exit trap used to kill the
port-forward before `mc rm`, so the delete always hit a closed port and
the warning gave no reason. The delete now runs first, and the warning
carries mc's own error, or says the delete timed out when mc was killed
before writing one. A PUT that timed out (rc 124) may have landed, so it
counts as uploaded. A PUT the server refused does not, so access that
never went live gets no delete and no warning.

The wait helpers were copied into every walkthrough and had drifted.
`wait_for_field`, `wait_hr_ready` and `wait_deleted` had 12, 8 and 2
copies with 5, 3 and 2 different bodies. They now live in
`examples/backups/_lib/wait-helpers.sh`, and each `00-helpers.sh`
sources it. Call sites and wait budgets are unchanged. Where copies
differed, the shared body keeps every diagnostic any copy had. What
changes per walkthrough:

- `wait_for_field` in every walkthrough but redis now shows kubectl's
stderr, so a Forbidden or transport error is visible instead of reading
as an empty field. `--ignore-not-found` keeps a resource that does not
exist yet from printing an error on every poll. Redis already kept
stderr.
- `wait_for_field` in foundationdb, nats and vmi gains the optional 7th
terminal-value argument. None of their callers pass it, so nothing
changes at runtime.
- vmi loses its progress dots.
- `wait_hr_ready` in redis and kafka-metadata now prints every condition
and the release history on Stalled or timeout. It also says whether the
release never appeared, was deleted, or could not be looked up.
- The kafka `wait_deleted` timeout message reads "it is still present"
instead of "still present".

`hack/backup-examples-shared-helpers.bats` goes red if a walkthrough
defines one of these helpers again or stops providing them, and it pins
both sides of the `wait_for_field` read: kubectl's reason for a failed
read is shown, a missing resource prints nothing. The byte-identity pin
between copies in `hack/mariadb-first-boot-waits.bats` is gone, and its
errexit test runs through the mariadb walkthrough's helpers.

The kafka topic-data demo had the empty-read race from #4400.
`kafka_run` read topic state through a throwaway `kubectl run -i` Pod.
It now execs into a long-lived CLI Pod that keeps the restricted
security context, and `cleanup.sh` removes it by label. The Pod name
comes from its own `KAFKA_TOPIC_CLI_POD`, so setting the kafka-metadata
demo's `KAFKA_CLI_POD` does not move it. #4400 itself was already fixed
on main for nats, kafka-metadata and rabbitmq.

The nats and kafka-metadata demos could exec into a Pod they had just
refused. They read CLI output inside `$(...)`, where bash does not apply
errexit, so the ownership refusal was ignored. A failed read of the
Pod's phase was treated as no Pod, and the demo went on to delete and
replace it. Every setup step now returns on failure. Their "exec fails
with kubectl's own error" tests could never fail: the runner's trace
wrote the expected message into the same stderr the test grepped. The
stub now prints the message itself.

Each fix has a test that fails on main. For each fix I also reverted it
and checked that only its own test goes red.

One gap stays open outside this PR. `hack/select-e2e.sh` maps
`examples/backups/<app>/` paths by app name, so a later PR that changes
only `examples/backups/_lib/wait-helpers.sh` would select no suite. This
PR is fine because it touches every walkthrough. The rule belongs to the
select-e2e owners and is tracked in #4626.

While reviewing I also found that the kafka README puts steps that
create and exec into Pods under the tenant persona, and the tenant role
can do neither. That is #4625, left for its own change.

Left out on purpose, because they are outside what this diff changes:

- The kafka topic demo and the kafka-metadata demo each carry a CLI Pod
helper, and the kafka-metadata one runs without the restricted security
context.
- The walkthrough READMEs do not say that a directory now needs
`../_lib` next to it.
- The errexit test in `hack/mariadb-first-boot-waits.bats` loops over
one file. I kept it so the rebase against #4471 stays mechanical.

Closes #3757, closes #4243, closes #4244

### Release note

```release-note
fix(backups): the backup walkthroughs share one set of wait helpers that keep kubectl errors visible, the kafka topic-data demo no longer reads empty replies from a throwaway Pod, the nats and kafka-metadata demos no longer exec into a CLI Pod they refused, and the e2e S3 access preflight says why client setup or cleanup failed and deletes its test object reliably.
```

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **New Features**
* Kafka topic backup walkthroughs now reuse a named CLI Pod, with
restricted security settings and checks to prevent using a Pod owned by
another demo.
* Backup walkthroughs can wait for resources to reach a desired state,
Helm releases to become ready, or resources to be deleted.

* **Bug Fixes**
* Kafka and NATS walkthroughs now stop and report errors when CLI Pod
lookups, creation, deletion, or command execution fail.
* S3 preflight cleanup now attempts removal after a timed-out upload and
reports cleanup failures, including timeouts.
