The namespace usage in this directory is very inconsistent, with files
and classes scattered in:
* global namespace
* namespace compaction
* namespace sstables
With cases, where all three used in the same file. This code used to
live in sstables/ and some of it still retains namespace sstables as a
heritage of that time. The mismatch between the dir (future module) and
the namespace used is confusing, so finish the migration and move all
code in compaction/ to namespace compaction too.
This patch, although large, is mechanic and only the following kind of
changes are made:
* replace namespace sstable {} with namespace compaction {}
* add namespace compaction {}
* drop/add sstables::
* drop/add compaction::
* move around forward-declarations so they are in the correct namespace
context
This refactoring revealed some awkward leftover coupling between
sstables and compaction, in sstables/sstable_set.cc, where the
make_sstable_set() methods of compaction strategies are implemented.
Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.
Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.
The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.
Closes#9937
Since compaction is layered on top of sstables, let's move all compaction code
into a new top-level directory.
This change will give me extra motivation to remove all layer violations, like
sstable calling compaction-specific code, and compaction entanglement with
other components like table and storage service.
Next steps:
- remove all layer violations
- move compaction code in sstables namespace into a new one for compaction.
- move compaction unit tests into its own file
