"""Regression tests for _rewrite_compound_background.

Context: bash parses ``A && B &`` as ``(A && B) &`` — it forks a subshell
for the compound and backgrounds the subshell. Inside the subshell, B
runs foreground, so the subshell waits for B. When B never exits on its
own (HTTP servers, ``yes > /dev/null``, etc.), the subshell is stuck in
``wait4`` forever and leaks as an orphan process. Pre-fix, we saw this
pattern leak processes across the fleet (vela, sal, combiagent).

The rewriter fixes this by wrapping the tail in a brace group —
``A && { B & }`` — so B runs as a simple backgrounded command inside
the current shell. No subshell fork, no wait.
