fix(ci): make parallel runner's exit-4 retry robust for newly-added test files (#42994)
The per-file test runner re-runs a file once when pytest exits 4 ("file or
directory not found") while the file exists on disk — a transient seen on
loaded shared CI runners where the planner collects a file (--collect-only
counts its tests) but the per-file subprocess fails to stat it moments later.
A single immediate retry could land in the same brief high-load window and
fail again, and the retry was gated on one Path.exists() check that can itself
be a flaky stat under that load — so a freshly-added test file that LPT pins to
one shard would deterministically red that shard on every run (no actual test
failure; the file just never executes).
- Extract the subprocess spawn/communicate/process-tree-kill logic into a
shared _spawn_pytest_once() helper (removes ~90 lines of duplication between
the primary run and the retry).
- Replace the single-shot retry with a bounded backoff loop
(_EXIT4_RETRY_ATTEMPTS, escalating sleep) that re-runs while the file is
present on disk.
- Add _file_present() which re-checks existence across a few spaced stats, so a
single flaky negative stat doesn't wrongly conclude the file is missing. A
genuinely-missing file (typo/deleted) still fails fast — exit 4 is not
swallowed when the file truly does not exist.
- Tests: transient-then-pass recovery, genuinely-missing fails fast with no
retry, give-up after max attempts, and _file_present transient/missing cases.
