It creates a regression test for the Amazon ECS setup on cgroups v1 where the parent memory limit isn't visible inside the container and, thus, needs to rely on the cg v1 specific `hierarchical_memory_limit` token in `memory.stat`. The proposed test is cg v1 only and needs to be run as root. It's skipped otherwise. It's useful to have when working on refactorings like #27743  so as not to regress.
