The later includes the former and in addition to `seastar::format()`,
`print.hh` also provides helpers like `seastar::fprint()` and
`seastar::print()`, which are deprecated and not used by scylladb.
Previously, we include `seastar/core/print.hh` for using
`seastar::format()`. and in seastar 5b04939e, we extracted
`seastar::format()` into `seastar/core/format.hh`. this allows us
to include a much smaller header.
In this change, we just include `seastar/core/format.hh` in place of
`seastar/core/print.hh`.

in seastar e96932b05f394b27cd0101e24f0584736795b50f, we stopped
including unused `fmt/ostream.h`. this helped to reduce the header
dependency. but this also broke the build of scylladb, as we rely
on the `fmt/ostream.h` indirectly included by seastar's header project.
in this change, we include `fmt/iostream.h` and `iostream` explictly
when we are using the declarations in them. this enables us to
- bump up the seastar submodule
- potentially reduce the header dependency as we will be able to
include seastar/core/format.hh instead of a more bloated
seastar/core/print.hh after bumping up seastar submodule

assert() is traditionally disabled in release builds, but not in
scylladb. This hasn't caused problems so far, but the latest abseil
release includes a commit [1] that causes a 1000 insn/op regression when
NDEBUG is not defined.
Clearly, we must move towards a build system where NDEBUG is defined in
release builds. But we can't just define it blindly without vetting
all the assert() calls, as some were written with the expectation that
they are enabled in release mode.
To solve the conundrum, change all assert() calls to a new SCYLLA_ASSERT()
macro in utils/assert.hh. This macro is always defined and is not conditional
on NDEBUG, so we can later (after vetting Seastar) enable NDEBUG in release
mode.

fmtlib allows us to specify the field width dynamically, so specify
the field width in the same statement formatting the argument improves
the readability. and use the constexpr fmt string allows us to switch
to compile-time formatter supported by fmtlib v8.
this change also use `fmt::print()` to format the argument right to
the output ostream, instead of creating a temporary sstring, and
copy it to the output ostream.

Closes#14579
After fcb8d040 ("treewide: use Software Package Data Exchange
(SPDX) license identifiers"), many dual-licensed files were
left with empty comments on top. Remove them to avoid visual
noise.
Closes#10562
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
if mean() is called when there are no elements in the histogram,
a runtime error will happen due to division-by-zero.
approx_exponential_histogram::mean() handles it but for some
reason we forgot to do the same for estimated_histogram.
this problem was found when adding an unit test which calls
mean() in an empty histogram.
Fixes#9531.

This patch aim to make the implementation and usage of the
approx_exponential_histogram clearer.
The approx_exponential_histogram Uses a combination of Min, Max,
Precision and number of buckets where the user needs to pick 3.
Most of the changes in the patch are about documenting the class and
method, but following the review there are two functionality changes:
1. The user would pick: Min, Max and Precision and the number of buckets
will be calculated from these values.
2. The template restrictions are now state in a requires so voiolation
will be stop at compile time.
This patch adds an efficient histogram implementation.
The implementation chooses efficiency over flexibility.
That is why templates are used.
How the approx_exponential_histogram pseudo floating point histogram
works: It split the range [MIN, MAX] into log2(MAX/MIN) ranges it then
split each of that ranges linearly according to a given resolution.
For example, using resolution of 4, would be similar to using an
exponentially growing histogram with a coefficient of 1.2.
All values are uint64. To prevent handling of corner cases, it is not
allowed to set the MIN to be lower than the resolution.
The approx_exponential_histogram will probably not be used directly,
the first used is by time_estimated_histogram. A histogram for durations.
It should be compared to the estimated_histogram.
Performance comparison:
Comparison was done by inserting 2^20 values into
time_estimated_histogram and estimated_histogram.
In debug mode on a local machine insert operation took an average of
26.0 nanoseconds vs 342.2 nanoseconds.
In release mode insert operation took an average of 1.90 vs 8.28 nanoseconds

Prometheus histograms have 3 embedded metrics: count, buckets, and sum.
Currently we fill up count and buckets but sum is left at 0. This is
particularly bad, since according to the prometheus documentation, the
best way to calculate histogram averages is to write:
rate(metric_sum[5m]) / rate(metric_count[5m])
One way of keeping track of the sum is adding the value we sampled,
every time we sample. However, the interface for the estimated histogram
has a method that allows to add a metric while allowing to adjust the
count for missing metrics (add_nano())
That makes acumulating a sum inaccurate--as we will have no values for
the points that were added. To overcome that, when we call add_nano(),
we pretend we are introducing new_count - _count metrics, all with the
same value.
Long term, doing away with sampling may help us provide more accurate
results.
After this patch, we are able to correctly calculate latency averages
through the data exported in prometheus.

Histograms are a native prometheus type, and there are many functions
available that operate on them. There is extensive documentation about
them at https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/histograms/
One example is the function histogram_quantile(), that can extract
useful quantiles from the histograms. Currently, those functions don't
work well.
The reasons are twofold:
1) We are only exporting 16 metrics, starting from 1usec. That means
that the highest latency we can differentiate is 4ms. After that,
everything falls into the same bin.
2) The format that prometheus expects is that each bin will contain
the total number of points seen *up until that bin*, while we
currently export the total number of points that falls between bins.
IOW, it is a cummulative histogram.
About point two, granted it is a bit hidden in their website, but it is
there. The following phrase about a caveat make it clear:
"Note that we divide the sum of both buckets. The reason is that the
histogram buckets are cumulative. The le="0.3" bucket is also contained
in the le="1.2" bucket; dividing it by 2 corrects for that."
It is also not needed to accumulate things that fall over the last bin:
the _count component of the histogram will already account for that.
This patch changes the histogram format to be more in line with what
prometheus expect.

estimated histogram: return a smaller histogram
The current histogram contains 91 buckets, this is a very high
resolution with a high upper limit.
To reduce traffic passed, between scylla and the prometheus, this patch
generate a smaller histogram.
It limit the number of buckets (16 by default), set a lower limit to the
lowest bucket, and uses 2 as the bucket coeficient.
Highest empty buckets will not be reported.
