[CI][C++] Fix arrow-s3fs-test timeouts on macOS C++ job
Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.
The arrow-s3fs-test has been failing due to what appears to be a timeout on the "AMD64 macOS 12 C++" job for a while.
A recent example is: https://github.com/apache/arrow/actions/runs/8179809257/job/22366589254?pr=40373#step:13:265 and the relevant output is:

gist for posterity.
I expect this causes a lot of noise for maintainers so figuring out why this test is timing out would be good.
Component(s)
C++, Continuous Integration
When running this test locally on my non-AMD64 Mac, I actually get three failures:
[ RUN ] TestS3FS.CreateDir

I see in this job we run ctest with,
ctest --label-regex unittest --output-on-failure --parallel 4 --repeat until-pass:3 --timeout 300
My hunch is that it's possible the test is failing and ctest is retrying. My local machine is fast enough that it can get 3 repeats in before the timeout but it's possible GitHub's runner is slow enough that the timeout happens first.
Another thing I noticed is that, when ctest automatically re-attempts the test as requested, it still prints "attempt 1/1" each time:

I reverted my minio and mc binaries to the ones we pin for the tests and the above failures go away so I don't think that's what's going on. Though the above errors may be something to be aware of we ever need to upgrade minio/mc.
I haven't been able to reproduce locally (without modifying anything) but I have been able to reproduce once on CI with a stripped-down workflow in this run https://github.com/amoeba/arrow/actions/runs/8194916281/job/22416431654 so I'm going to try debugging that with tmate.
Good luck with that, my attempts at reproducing while logging in using tmate actually failed here: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/40401
I'm having success reproducing the timeout by SSH'ing into GHA so this has now turned into me figuring out how to get useful information out of the hanging test with dtrace. A did a bit of searching to find out how to get thread stack traces from a running process and ended up trying sudo dtrace -p $PID -n 'profile-997 /pid == '$PID'/ { @[ustack(100)] = count();}' -o somefile which I don'k think is close but not quite what I'm after. It behaves like it captures just a single stack trace so I'm going to keep experimenting.
But so far, it produces this more often than not, which is interesting,

More easily perhaps, you can use gdb -p to take control of a running process and debug it.
lldb has something similar.
Thanks. A bt all gives something similar. In an attempt to catch when the test was approaching timeout, I got a baseline for how long the test takes to complete normally which was pretty consistently ~25s. I ran the test by itself until it took longer and waited until ~60s and attached using lldb -p and then ran bt all:

Thanks a lot @amoeba . It appears therefore that it is timing out when trying to join a thread using Curl_thread_join. This is quite unexpected, though there seems to be a similar issue reported on the Internet:
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/15019#issuecomment-661208069
Edit: at second sight, the sentence above is incorrect. There is a thread pending on Curl_getaddrinfo_ex, which means that the DNS request is still ongoing. Presumably DNS requests on macOS can take a lot of time to time out?
It would be nice if you could try again to catch another backtrace, so that we can see if it's always the same test timing out. If it is, we could just disable that test on macOS...
Even better: can you try getting a traceback later? It seems DNS resolution timeout on macOS is 30 seconds.
