Description

cqlsh tests break if the runner has an authentication section in their ~/.cassandra/cqlshrc, because cqlsh changes the prompt and the tests scan output for a prompt. It manifests as read timeouts while waiting for a prompt in test/run_cqlsh.py.
This pattern could be generalized to match the "<username>@cqlsh..." prompt that arises with this config.
