This reverts commit 562087beff.
The regressions introduced by the reverted change have been fixed.
So let's revert this revert to resurrect the
uuid_sstable_identifier_enabled support.
Fixes#10459
This reverts commit d1dc579062, reversing
changes made to 3a73048bc9.
Said commit caused regressions in dtests. We need to investigate and fix
those, but in the meanwhile let's revert this to reduce the disruption
to our workflows.
Refs: #14283
the invalid sstable id is the NULL of a sstable identifier. with
this concept, it would be a lot simpler to find/track the greatest
generation. the complexity is hidden in the generation_type, which
compares the a) integer-based identifiers b) uuid-based identifiers
c) invalid identitifer in different ways.
so, in this change
* the default constructor generation_type is
now public.
* we don't check for empty generation anymore when loading
SSTables or enumerating them.

this change generalize the value of generation_type so it also
supports UUID based identifier.
* sstables/generation_type.h:
- add formatter and parse for UUID. please note, Cassandra uses
a different format for formatting the SSTable identifier. and
this formatter suits our needs as it uses underscore "_" as the
delimiter, as the file name of components uses dash "-" as the
delimiter. instead of reinventing the formatting or just use
another delimiter in the stringified UUID, we choose to use the
Cassandra's formatting.
- add accessors for accessing the type and value of generation_type
- add constructor for constructing generation_type with UUID and
string.
- use hash for placing sstables with uuid identifiers into shards
for more uniformed distrbution of tables in shards.
* replica/table.cc:
- only update the generator if the given generation contains an
integer
* test/boost:
- add a simple test to verify the generation_type is able to
parse and format
