Replaces the prior speculative test skeleton with 42 tests across 5 categories: - TestMstCorrectness (18): commit/rollback/isolation/multi-table atomicity/repeatable reads/write conflict/parameterized DML/etc. - TestMstApi (6): DB-API-specific — autocommit, isolation level, error handling. - TestMstMetadata (6): cursor.columns/tables/schemas/catalogs inside a transaction, plus two freshness tests asserting Thrift metadata RPCs are non-transactional (they see concurrent DDL that the txn should not see). - TestMstBlockedSql (9): MSTCheckRule enforcement. Some SHOW/DESCRIBE commands throw + abort txn, others succeed silently on Python/Thrift (diverges from JDBC). Both behaviors are explicitly tested so regressions in either direction are caught. - TestMstExecuteVariants (2): executemany commit/rollback. Parallelisation: - Each test uses a unique Delta table derived from its test name so pytest-xdist workers don't collide on shared state. - Tests that spawn concurrent connections to the same table (repeatable reads, write conflict, freshness) use xdist_group so the concurrent connections within a single test don't conflict with other tests on different workers. Runtime: ~2 minutes on 4 workers (pytest -n 4 --dist=loadgroup), well within the existing e2e budget. Co-authored-by: Isaac Signed-off-by: Vikrant Puppala <vikrant.puppala@databricks.com>

CI caught that the initial "not blocked" assertions were wrong — the server returns TRANSACTION_NOT_SUPPORTED.COMMAND for SHOW COLUMNS (ShowDeltaTableColumnsCommand) and DESCRIBE QUERY (DescribeQueryCommand) inside an active transaction. The server's error message explicitly lists the allowed commands: "Only SELECT / INSERT / MERGE / UPDATE / DELETE / DESCRIBE TABLE are supported." DESCRIBE TABLE (basic) remains the only DESCRIBE variant that is allowed. Earlier dogfood runs showed SHOW COLUMNS / DESCRIBE QUERY succeeding — likely because the dogfood warehouse DBR is older than CI. Aligning tests with the current/CI server behavior.

Added some minor comments, please address those
- test_auto_start_after_commit: assert the rolled-back id=2 is NOT present (use _get_ids set equality instead of just row count). - test_auto_start_after_rollback: same pattern — assert the rolled-back id=1 is NOT present. - test_commit_without_active_txn_throws: match specific NO_ACTIVE_TRANSACTION server error code to ensure we're catching the right exception, not an unrelated one. Add _get_ids() helper for checking the exact set of persisted ids. Verified 42/42 pass against pecotesting in ~1:36 (4 workers).
