Kristoffer Dalby a9a2001ae7 integration: scale remaining hardcoded timeouts and replace pingAllHelper
Apply CI-aware scaling to all remaining hardcoded timeouts:

- requireAllClientsOfflineStaged: scale the three internal stage
  timeouts (15s/20s/60s) with ScaledTimeout.
- validateReloginComplete: scale requireAllClientsOnline (120s)
  and requireAllClientsNetInfoAndDERP (3min) calls.
- WaitForTailscaleSyncPerUser callers in acl_test.go (3 sites, 60s).
- WaitForRunning callers in tags_test.go (10 sites): switch to
  PeerSyncTimeout() to match convention.
- WaitForRunning/WaitForPeers direct callers in route_test.go.
- requireAllClientsOnline callers in general_test.go and
  auth_key_test.go.

Replace pingAllHelper with assertPingAll/assertPingAllWithCollect:

- Wraps pings in EventuallyWithT so transient docker exec timeouts
  are retried instead of immediately failing the test.
- Timeout scales with the ping matrix size (2s per ping budget for
  2 full sweeps) so large tests get proportionally more time.
- Uses CollectT correctly, fixing the broken EventuallyWithT usage
  in TestEphemeral where the old t.Errorf bypassed CollectT.
- Follows the established assert*/assertWithCollect naming.

Integration testing

Headscale relies on integration testing to ensure we remain compatible with Tailscale.

This is typically performed by starting a Headscale server and running a test "scenario" with an array of Tailscale clients and versions.

Headscale's test framework and the current set of scenarios are defined in this directory.

Tests are located in files ending with _test.go and the framework are located in the rest.

Running integration tests locally

The easiest way to run tests locally is to use act, a local GitHub Actions runner:

act pull_request -W .github/workflows/test-integration.yaml

Alternatively, the docker run command in each GitHub workflow file can be used.

Running integration tests on GitHub Actions

Each test currently runs as a separate workflows in GitHub actions, to add new test, run go generate inside ../cmd/gh-action-integration-generator/ and commit the result.
