So yeah, there are two routes to that. Most other type corona viruses we have experience with have strong immunity on the order of nine months. So all the progress towards natural herd immunity will go away within an 18 month period as best we can tell.
Or, like you postulated. One good mutation, which is inevitable at some point, amd we get to do the dance again
So best case senario, when we get a vaccine set up and running, and widely distributed, it is an unknown and finite ammount of time before a new strain pops up. Just like how we get flu shots only without decades of instutional knowledge on how ro handle it.

This was really informative, thanks for explaining this. There is hope maybe.
