Description

Since CASSANDRA-10422 we don't do anticompaction when a user issues a sub range repair (-st X -et Y), but we still mark sstables as repairing.

We should avoid marking them as users might want to run many sub range repair sessions in parallel.

The reason we mark sstables is that we don't want another repair session to steal the sstables before we do anticompaction, and since we do no anticompaction with sub range repair we have no benefit from the marking.
