Previously, the test TestValidationWithProtectedTS would hang if a Ggio routine would hit an error, since a channel would not be posted on a error. It would also not gracefully handle TS after replica GC errors on transactions, which could happen on overloaded machines. To address this patch makes the test more resilient to the Go routine hitting errors so that it doesn't time out, and adds retry logic for TS after replica GC errors.
