Description

Since at least 1.2 upgradesstables will cancel any compactions bar validations when run. This was originally determined as a non-issue in CASSANDRA-3430 however can be quite annoying (especially with STCS) as a compaction will output the new version anyway. Furthermore, as per CASSANDRA-12243 it also stops things like view builds and I assume secondary index builds as well which is not ideal.

We should avoid cancelling compactions unnecessarily.
