fix(test): mark complex script piping test as flaky
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged #1316 in commit 36190695, marking the complex-script piping test flaky because out-of-order pipe completion caused intermittent failures on busy ppc64el and s390x runners.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: PR #1316 was merged as commit 36190695 after all reported CI checks passed. It made the affected test retryable to tolerate legitimate pipe ordering under load.

Since adding ppc64el and s390x runners, this test has shown a lot of
flakiness on those platforms due to the two pipes coming in out of
order, which isn't a bug, but rather just a way that pipes work, and
it's more noticeable on a very busy system.
