Previously, whether the test server created tenant-scoped client certificates for tests was based on a hardcoded version gate. This was sufficient in the past, but as tenant-scoped client certs are now being backported to older cockroachdb versions, a more dynamic approach to determine whether or not these certificates are available is needed. This patch adds a mechanism to do so. The new approach runs the `cockroach cert create-client --help` command to view the available flags for the current cockroach binary. If the `--tenant-scope` flag is present in the help text, then we can say with confidence that tenant scoped client certificates are available. We can use this to signal the broader system to make use of these certificates when running tests in secure mode. This follows the approach used in: cockroachdb/cockroach#83703
