Aaron Haslett 6a7dd7ab51 tests: Reduce likelihood of auth_log test locking up during CI
We would sometimes see the auth_log test hang during a CI run. The CI
job would eventually fail after consuming a costly 10 hours of CI
runtime.

We believe the problem is around the test creating multiple instances of
the Messaging() context. This is a similar race condition to what was
seen in 19f34b2161dee26.

Currently a new Messaging() context is created for every test case. By
using classmethods instead, the Messaging context is only created once
per python test file execution (i.e. creation of the python class,
rather than initialization of the python object, which happens for every
test-case).

This means the test will only create one Messaging() context, which
should avoid any race conditions.

Changes:
+ removed msg_ctxs - this wasn't actually used for anything.
+ use classmethods to setup and tear-down the Messaging() context (and
tweak lp initialization accordingly).
+ fix discardMessages() - the loop wasn't actually discarding any
messages previously (this may also have been the cause of the test
hanging).
