task_status contains a vector of children identities. If the number
of children is large, we may hit oversized allocation.
Change all types of children-related containers to chunked_vector.
Modify the children type returned from task manager API.
Fixes: scylladb#25795.

task_stats contains short info about a task. To get a list of task_stats
in the module, one needs to request /task_manager/list_module_tasks/{module}.
To make identification and navigation between tasks easier, extend
task_stats to contain shard, start_time, and end_time.

Virtual tasks are supported by get_task_status, abort_task and
wait_task.
Task status returned by get_task_status and wait_task:
- contains task_kind to indicate whether it's virtual (cluster) or
regular (node) task;
- children list apart from task_id contains node address of the task.
task_manager/list_module_tasks/{module} starts supporting virtual tasks,
which means that their stats will also be shown for users.
Additional task_kind param is added to indicate whether the task is
virutal (cluster-wide) or regular (node-wide).
Support in other paths will be added in following patches.
Contrary to regular tasks, which are per-operation, virtual tasks
are associated with the whole group of operations. There may be many
operations of each group performed at the same time. Info about each
running operation will be shown to a user through the API.
For virtual tasks, task manager imitates a regular task covering
each operation, but task_manager::tasks aren't actually created
in the memory. Instead, information (e.g. status) about the operation
is retrieved from associated service and passed to a user.
To hide most of the differences from user, task_handler class is created.
Task handler performs appropriate actions depending on task's kind.
However, users need to stay conscious about the kind of task, because:
- get_task_status and wait_task do not unregister virtual tasks;
- time for which a virtual tasks stays in task manager depends
on associated service and tasks' implementation;
- number of virtual task's children shown by get_tasks doesn't have
to be monotonous.
API is modified to use task_handler.
API-specific classes are moved to task_handler.{cc,hh}.
