Description

back in CASSANDRA-685 we added the ability to drop messages that we know are going to timeout, as a protection when Cassandra is overloaded. But this logic is in MessageDeliveryTask, so when we skip MessagingService as an optimization for local delivery, we also skip the timeout check.
