This commit removes the information that tablets are an experimental feature
from the CREATE KEYSPACE section.
In addition, it removes the notes and cautions that are redundant when
a feature is GA, especially the information and warnings about the future
plans.

Closesscylladb/scylladb#18946
In order to correctly restore schema from `DESC SCHEMA WITH INTERNALS`, we need a way to drop a column with a timestamp in the past.
Example:
- table t(a int pk, b int)
- insert some data1
- drop column b
- add column b int
- insert some data2
If the sstables weren't compacted, after restoring the schema from description:
- we will loss column b in data2 if we simply do `ALTER TABLE t DROP b` and `ALTER TABLE t ADD b int`
- we will resurrect column b in data1 if we skip dropping and re-adding the column

dclocal_read_repair_chance and read_repair_chance have been removed in Cassandra 3.11 and 4.x, see
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13910. if we expose these properties via DDL, Cassandra would fail to consume the CQL statement creating the table when performing migration from Scylla to Cassandra 4.x, as the latter does not understand these properties anymore.
currently the default values of `dc_local_read_repair_chance` and `read_repair_chance` are both "0". so they are practically disabled, unless user deliberately set them to a value greater than 0.
also, as a side effect, Cassandra 4.x has better support of Python3. the cqlsh shipped along with Cassandra 3.11.16 only supports python2.7, see
https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.11.16/bin/cqlsh.py it errors out if the system only provides python3 with the error of
```
No appropriate python interpreter found.
```
but modern linux systems do not provide python2 anymore.
so, in this change, we deprecate these two options.

Currently, if tombstone_gc mode isn't specified for a table,
then "timeout" is used by default. With tablets, running
"nodetool repair -pr" may miss a tablet if it migrated across
the nodes. Then, if we expire tombstones for ranges that
weren't repaired, we may get data resurrection.
Set default tombstone_gc mode value for DDLs that don't
specify it. It's set to "repair" for tables which use tablets
unless they use local replication strategy or rf = 1.
Otherwise it's set to "timeout".
Now the user can do
CREATE KEYSPACE ... WITH TABLETS = { 'enabled': false }
to turn tablets off. It will be useful in the future to opt-out keyspace
from tablets when they will be turned on by default based on cluster
features only.
Also one can do just
CREATE KEYSPACE ... WITH TABLETS = { 'enabled': true }
and let Scylla select the initial tablets value by its own

This patch changes the syntax of enabling tablets from
CREATE KEYSPACE ... WITH REPLICATION = { ..., 'initial_tablets': <int> }
to be
CREATE KEYSPACE ... WITH TABLETS = { 'initial': <int> }
and updates all tests accordingly.

This commit adds information on how to enable
object storage for a keyspace.
The "Keyspace storage options" section already
existed in the doc, but it was not valid as
the support was only added in version 5.4
The scope of this commit:
- Update the "Keyspace storage options" section.
- Add the information about object storage support
to the Data Definition> CREATE KEYSPACE section
* Marked as "Experimental".
* Excluded from the Enterprise docs with the
.. only:: opensource directive.
This commit must be backported to branch-5.4,
as support for object storage was added
in version 5.4.

The goal is to make the available defaults safe for future use, as they
are often taken from existing config files or documentation verbatim.
Referenced issue: #14290Closesscylladb/scylladb#15856
Fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/14598
This commit adds the description of minimum_keyspace_rf
to the CREATE KEYSPACE section of the docs.
(When we have the reference section for all ScyllaDB options,
an appropriate link should be added.)
This commit must be backported to branch-5.3, because
the feature is already on that branch.
Closes#14686
The chunk size used in sstable compression can be set when creating a
table, using the "chunk_length_in_kb" parameter. It can be any power-of-two
multiple of 1KB. Very large compression chunks are not useful - they
offer diminishing returns on compression ratio, and require very large
memory buffers and reading a very large amount of disk data just to
read a small row. In fact, small chunks are recommended - Scylla
defaults to 4 KB chunks, and Cassandra lowered their default from 64 KB
(in Cassandra 3) to 16 KB (in Cassandra 4).
Therefore, allowing arbitrarily large chunk sizes is just asking for
trouble. Today, a user can ask for a 1 GB chunk size, and crash or hang
Scylla when it runs out of memory. So in this patch we add a hard limit
of 128 KB for the chunk size - anything larger is refused.

Now that the documentation is versioned, we can remove
the .. versionadded:: and .. versionchanged:: information
(especially that the latter is hard to maintain and now
outdated), as well as the outdated information about
experimental features in very old releases.
This commit removes that information and nothing else.
Closes#13680
The tombstone_gc was documented as experimental in version 5.0.
It is no longer experimental in version 5.2.
This commit updates the information about the option.

This commit removes the pages that describe Enterprise only features
from the Open Source documentation:
- Encryption at Rest
- Workload Prioritization
- LDAP Authorization
- LDAP Authentication
- Audit
In addition, it removes most of the information about Incremental
Compaction Strategy (ICS), which is replaced with links to the
Enterprise documentation.
The changes above required additional updates introduced with this
commit:
- The links to Enterprise-only features are replaced with the
corresponding links in the Enterprise documentation.
- The redirections are added for the removed pages to be redirected to
the corresponding pages in the Enterprise documentation.
This commit must be reverted in the scylla-enterprise repository to
avoid deleting the Enterprise-only content from the Enterprise docs.
Closes#13123
