Remove :shared from a valid feature categories for tests
What does this MR do and why?
Removes :shared as a valid feature category for tests, as it causes ownership ambiguity that requires unnecessary human intervention in the automated quarantine process.
Part of Epic gitlab-org/quality&195. When tests are quarantined automatically, those with feature_category: :shared cannot be assigned to a specific team, resulting in:
- Quarantine MRs sitting unreviewed for months
- Manual triage needed to determine ownership
- Broken automation workflow
This change enforces clear team ownership for all new tests, enabling fully automated quarantine MR assignment.
