This fixes some rare test flakes caused by a data race inherent in the way we use `assert.Eventually()` with extra variables for followup assertions. This function is tricky to use correctly because it runs the passed function in a separate goroutine, and you have no guarantee that any shared variables are in a coherent state when the `assert.Eventually()` call returns. Even if you add manual mutexes, it's tricky to get the semantics right. This has been a recurring pain point and the cause of several test flakes.
This change introduces a new `library.RequireEventually()` that works by internally constructing a per-loop `*require.Assertions` and running everything on a single goroutine (using `wait.PollImmediate()`). This makes it very easy to write eventual assertions.

All controller unit tests were accidentally using a timeout context
for the informers, instead of a cancel context which stays alive until
each test is completely finished. There is no reason to risk
unpredictable behavior of a timeout being reached during an individual
test, even though with the previous 3 second timeout it could only be
reached on a machine which is running orders of magnitude slower than
usual, since each test usually runs in about 100-300 ms. Unfortunately,
sometimes our CI workers might get that slow.
This sparked a review of other usages of timeout contexts in other
tests, and all of them were increased to a minimum value of 1 minute,
under the rule of thumb that our tests will be more reliable on slow
machines if they "pass fast and fail slow".
Because it is a test of the conciergeclient package, and the naming
convention for integration test files is supervisor_*_test.go,
concierge_*_test.go, or cli_*_test.go to identify which component
the test is primarily covering.
