Skipping flaky tests in CI is an anti-pattern that should be avoided,
as we do in our own CI. Failing flaky tests don’t need to be blockers
for a green CI result, but they should be run and reported somehow.

Checklist
  • make -j4 test (UNIX), or vcbuild test (Windows) passes
  • commit message follows commit guidelines

@refack can you please elaborate in what way this is blocked and by what?

Hi, everyone! Sorry to be mysterious, but please leave the blocked label on for another 72 hours. I know we're supposed to provide reasons for things like that and I'm not doing that here. If you could indulge me on this anyway, it would be greatly appreciated.

This PR will continue as #27158. I will not engage in that thread but still stand behind this change.
