ci(mysqlx): wire mysqlx-soak group into TAP harness end-to-end

Completes the four follow-up items documented in the mysqlx-soak
group's README. After this commit, the harness scripts run inside
the proper docker-isolated TAP framework — no more ad-hoc invocations.

## (1) Add mysql-connector-python to proxysql-ci-base

test/infra/docker-base/Dockerfile installs python3 + a few pip
packages but lacked the X DevAPI bindings. Add
`mysql-connector-python` to the existing `pip3 install` line. Image
must be rebuilt (`docker build -t proxysql-ci-base:latest
test/infra/docker-base`); the new soak-tests CI job rebuilds
unconditionally per run, so CI gets the new package automatically.

## (2) TAP wrappers for the harness scripts

Two new Bash TAP entries under test/tap/tests/:

* test_mysqlx_soak_behavioral-t.sh — emits two TAP assertions:
  scenario 1 = SIGTERM-mid-traffic (the harness signals the proxysql
  container with `docker kill -s TERM proxysql.${INFRA_ID}` mid-run
  and verifies clients receive Mysqlx::Error 1053 instead of TCP
  RST); scenario 2 = LOAD MYSQLX ROUTES TO RUNTIME mid-traffic.
  Both fall back to "skip" if mysql-connector-python is missing,
  or if the proxysql container is unreachable after scenario 1.

* test_mysqlx_soak_stress-t.sh — single TAP assertion that wraps
  stress.py. Defaults to 60s/20-clients to fit a CI timeout; long
  soaks invoke stress.py directly with --duration 24h per issue
  #5677.

Both wrappers default the connection params to the docker-internal
hostname `proxysql` (via network alias) so they work from inside the
test-runner container; environment overrides let local invocations
point elsewhere.

## (3) Register in groups.json

Two new entries:

  "test_mysqlx_soak_behavioral-t" : [ "mysqlx-soak-g1", "@proxysql_min_version:4.0" ],
  "test_mysqlx_soak_stress-t"     : [ "mysqlx-soak-g1", "@proxysql_min_version:4.0" ],

Both use the @proxysql_min_version:4.0 tag (the harness only makes
sense in chassis-aware builds). Lint passes (421 entries, sorted).

## (4) CI job

Add `soak-tests` job to .github/workflows/CI-mysqlx.yml. Pattern
mirrors CI-taptests-pgsql-cluster.yml: restore build cache, build
plugin, build proxysql-ci-base, ensure-infras (TAP_GROUP=mysqlx-soak),
run-tests-isolated (TAP_GROUP=mysqlx-soak-g1), cleanup, archive logs
on failure.

The job runs after unit-tests passes (same dependency as e2e-tests)
and is independent of e2e-tests (parallel execution OK).

## What this covers

* Builds the plugin and rebuilds the test image with the X DevAPI.
* Stands up a real MySQL 8.4 backend (3-node replication via the
  existing infra-dbdeployer-mysql84 image, X protocol on port
  23306-23308 inside the docker network).
* Stands up ProxySQL in a container with the plugin .so bind-mounted
  and a per-group config that declares plugins=("...").
* The mysqlx-soak setup-infras hook provisions one route, one user,
  one endpoint, reloads, and verifies the listener bound on 6603.
* Two TAP tests run inside the test-runner container against the
  freshly-stood-up ProxySQL, exercising the plugin end-to-end.

## What this does NOT cover

* Long-running soaks (24-72h). The CI job runs a 60s stress for
  signal; the full soak per issue #5677 needs staging.
* All compression/TLS combinations. The harness's defaults are
  uncompressed + clear-text; matrix expansion is future work.
* Listener-port collisions across parallel CI runs. INFRA_ID
  isolates docker-network names but the TAP_GROUP-scoped MYSQLX_
  PROXYSQL_PORT (default 6603) is a single value. CI runs are
  serial per workflow concurrency group; not a problem today but
  worth flagging if matrix-fanout is added.
