Description

CASSANDRA-12905 changed the hints path to be asynchronous in the normal case, but when the hint is non-local and should be stored (ie. on decommission) an ack is not sent so the operation does not complete successfully.

CASSANDRA-13058 fixed this for 3.0+, but for 3.11+ but there is an additional concern which on 3.0 is that non-acked hints are being completed successfully so we should probably look into this as well here.
