[Patch|https://github.com/apache/cassandra-builds/compare/master...thelastpickle:mck/jenkins-dtest-parallel] ready. Tested locally.

When committing this, all existing dtest (mainline branch dtest-upgrade excluded) jobs will first need to be renamed, as the job type is changing.

> Currently dtests in Jenkins take ~10 hours.
> Using the Jenkins Matrix plugin these jobs can be split into smaller lists of dtests and run in parallel. This is the approach CircleCI takes.
> This approach was [trialed|https://github.com/apache/cassandra-builds/pull/29] with the dtest-upgrade jobs (which are not yet part of the branch pipelines, and haven't previously worked at all due to their duration).
> In addition to the Matrix plugin, the Priority-Sorter and Matrix Reloaded plugins also needed to be added.
> The splits will occupy all executors, and multiple builds will lead to a long build queue. More important builds (artifacts and unit tests) need a way to be prioritised in such saturated situations.
> Splits can fail for silly reasons (false-positive), like [full|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-19793] /tmp disks, or [connectivity issues|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20107] between the donated agent servers. The Matrix Reloaded plugin makes it easy to rebuilt just those failed splits.
