Version based connection reset using queries

[SiddharthBITS]

Description

Resetting connection after each test instead of closing for versions > 16.6. Also disabling pg_hint for tests that left it open, as the enabled pg_hint setting leaks into other tests when resetting connections.

We can expect 5-6 mins of improvements for version upgrade tests with base > 16.6 and dump-restore tests. For other version upgrade tests these improvements are around 2-3 mins.

Key changes:

• Implemented connection reset for SQL servers (versions > 16.6) post-test.
• Replaced redundant 'isUpgradeTestMode' config variable with 'allowConnectionReset'.
• Eliminated dependency on GitHub Actions workflows to ensure consistent test behavior across environments.
• Optimized test execution to reduce overall completion time.
