The tests assumed that instantiating a DRAManager followed by
informerFactory.WaitForCacheSync would be enough to have the manager
up-to-date, but that's not correct: the test only waits for informer *caches*
to be synced, but syncing *event handlers* like the one in the manager may
still be going on. The flake rate is low, though:

It becomes higher when changing WaitForCacheSync such that it doesn't poll and
therefore returns more promptly, which is where this flake was first observed.
The fix is to run the test in a syntest bubble where Wait can be used to wait
for all background activity, including event handling, to be finished before
proceeding with the test.
synctest is less forgiving about lingering goroutines. A synctest bubble must
wait for gouroutines to stop, which in this case means that there has to be
a way to wait for the metric recorder shutdown. Event handlers have to be
removed.
This could be done with plain Go, but here test/utils/ktesting is used instead
because it offers some advantages:
- less boilerplate code
- automatic cancellation of the context (i.e. less manual context.WithCancel)
- tCtx.SyncTest is a direct substitute for t.Run, which avoids re-indenting
sub-tests. synctest itself needs another anonymous function, which makes
the line too long and forced re-indention:
t.Run(... func(...) {
synctest.Test(... func() {
})
})
For the sake of consistency all tests get updated.
While at it, some code gets improved:
- t.Fatal(err) is not a good way to report an error because
there is no additional markup in the test output that indicates
that there was an unexpected error. It just logs err.Error(),
which might not be very informative and/or obvious.
- newTestDRAManager aborts in case of a failure instead of
returning an error.
Extend Fit and BalancedAllocation PreScore state with the the
allocated state, the list of ResourceSlices and the device class
mapping. Gather these once during PreScore and pass them through
the scoring path instead of re-fetching for every scoring call.
This should speed up scoring of DRA extended resources, lowering
scheduling overhead.
