Description

In mock/replay mode (CYPRESS_MOCK_SERVER=true), several Cypress specs have hardcoded cy.wait() calls designed to let real-world TTLs expire. Since cassettes are already recorded with the final state, these waits serve no purpose in replay and inflate mock batch CI runtime significantly.

Closes #13327

Waits removed in mock mode

Spec	Wait removed
00-CoreFlows.cy.js	65s (client secret session expiry)
52-ClientSessionValidation.cy.js	61s (Redis TTL)
33-ManualRetry.cy.js	2 × 35s (manual retry cutoff)
40-ExternalVault.cy.js	5 × 10s (VGS vault token polling)
52-AlternativePayments.cy.js	5s (Skrill sync poll)

~251 seconds saved per connector in mock batches.

Additional Changes

• This PR modifies the API contract
• This PR modifies the database schema
• This PR modifies application configuration/environment variables

Motivation and Context

Fixes #13327 — mock batch 3 (nmi calida adyen peachpayments payload) was taking 1–1.5 hours partly due to these waits running unnecessarily in replay mode.

How did you test it?

Guards use the existing isMockServer() helper from mitmProxy.js. Live/mandatory test runs are unaffected — the waits only skip when CYPRESS_MOCK_SERVER=true.

Checklist

• I formatted the code cargo +nightly fmt --all
• I addressed lints thrown by cargo clippy
• I reviewed the submitted code
