OCPBUGS-112662: Fix the number of requests in repeated exec

[jcmoraisjr]

expectRouteStatusCodeRepeatedExec treated times as a deadline in seconds, not a request count. The loop ran curl back-to-back for times seconds with no delay between requests — a tight loop. So callers actually fired an unbounded, load-dependent number of requests in 100 seconds - far more than 100 reqs, and hammering the router unnecessarily fast.

Fix:

• Replaced the time-based loop with a counter that increments once per iteration, so the loop runs exactly times times - matching what every caller's variable name and comments already implied.
• Added sleep 0.5 between iterations so requests are paced instead of fired in a tight loop.

Net effect: times now means what it says (number of requests), and the requests are spaced out rather than bursted.

Walkthrough

The router test retry loop now performs a fixed number of iterations. Each iteration waits 0.5 seconds and increments the retry counter.

Changes

Router retry polling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Bounded retry polling test/extended/router/scoped.go	The retry loop stops after the specified number of iterations. Each iteration waits 0.5 seconds and increments the counter.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 6982c

The change now issues exactly the requested number of paced requests. An extra 0.5-second delay after the final request adds only small test latency and no actionable merge-blocking risk remains; the PR is merge-ready after normal checks and review.

Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title check	✅ Passed	The title clearly identifies the change to the request count in repeated exec and matches the primary pull request objective.
Linked Issues check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Out of Scope Changes check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Stable And Deterministic Test Names	✅ Passed	The PR changes only loop logic; no Ginkgo title lines changed. All titles in scoped.go are static and contain no run-dependent values.
Test Structure And Quality	✅ Passed	The diff only changes a helper to use a finite counter and curl's 5-second limit; it adds no It block, assertion, resource setup, or wait lacking cleanup or timeout.
Microshift Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	The diff changes only an existing helper loop; it adds no Ginkgo tests or unavailable API references. The enclosing suite uses the MicroShift-supported route.openshift.io tag.
Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	PASS: The diff changes only an existing helper in scoped.go (+4/-2) and adds no Ginkgo test; the SNO multi-node check is therefore not applicable.
Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility	✅ Passed	The diff changes only a router test helper in test/extended/router/scoped.go; it adds request pacing and no deployment, operator, controller, or scheduling constraints.
Ote Binary Stdout Contract	✅ Passed	The diff only changes a remote shell loop in expectRouteStatusCodeRepeatedExec. Its callers are inside Ginkgo It blocks, and it adds no process-level stdout writes or logging.
Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	The commit changes only an existing helper loop; it adds no Ginkgo test or endpoint. Existing callers use exutil.IPUrl/net.JoinHostPort, and no IPv4 or public-internet dependency is introduced.
No-Weak-Crypto	✅ Passed	The diff changes only request-loop timing in test/extended/router/scoped.go; it adds no MD5, SHA1, DES, RC4, 3DES, Blowfish, ECB, crypto, or secret-comparison code.
Container-Privileges	✅ Passed	The PR changes only test/extended/router/scoped.go. Added lines contain no privileged, hostPID, hostNetwork, hostIPC, SYS_ADMIN, or allowPrivilegeEscalation settings.
No-Sensitive-Data-In-Logs	✅ Passed	The diff adds only a bounded counter and 0.5-second delay; emitted output remains HTTP status codes or curl exit codes, with no passwords, tokens, PII, hostnames, or customer data logged.
