there's no reason a store should not open a connection during init if it
needs to open any connection to function. delaying connection setup like
this makes openStore less deterministic and graceful fallback impossible
this caused test failures where the old behaviour was required to ensure
test output stability. because of course something like that must happen

This commit enables the parametrization for "legacy-combined" protocol.
All failing tests with that have been either fixed or disabled. Notably:
- A couple of tests (e.g. involving builders) could be made to work with
a non-local store, but this would require some refactoring to testlib in
order to make certain configuration settings generic over local and
remote operations. We've disabled those for now, in order to make
progress
- The store tests all run locally only because of their nature
- The flakes tests also all run locally only because my energy for
fixing them is limited (and it's a *lot* of test failures, with probably
little overall benefit in terms of test coverage)

not doing this has lix crash if stdio forwarding fails for odd reasons,
such as ssh failing to set up a connection due to transient dns errors.
