“If you have a procedure with ten parameters, you probably missed some.”
― attr. Alan J. Perlis

I argue that the same is true for hard-coded special cases.

In TestGroupCleanupUserNamespace, instead of a curated list of strings
observed in the wild we now check for a prefix, as was done for
TestGroupCleanup in CL 24670.

Updates #52088.
Fixes #52149.
