They're prone to cause flaky tests due to the "allocated" ports already being taken by the system when eventually needed. Replaced usages with PortAllocation.Incremental.
Affected unit tests made into integration tests to avoid any issues in the future when unit tests are made to run in parallel.
Document different upgrade notes for table name change from v3.0 or from v3.1/v3.2 to the current version (a table change introduced in v3.1 was not documented in upgrade notes).
