not all tables in system keyspace are volatile. among other things,
system.sstables and system.tablets are persisted using sstables like
regular user tables. so move them into the section where we have
other regular tables there.

we changed the type of generation column in system.sstables
from bigint to timeuuid in 74e9e6dd1a
but that change failed to update the document accordingly. so let's
update the document to reflect the change.

Closes#13994
The schema is
CREATE TABLE system.sstables (
location text,
generation bigint,
format text,
status text,
uuid uuid,
version text,
PRIMARY KEY (location, generation)
)
A sample entry looks like:
location | generation | format | status | uuid | version
---------------------------------------------------------------------+------------+--------+--------+--------------------------------------+---------
/data/object_storage_ks/test_table-d096a1e0ad3811ed85b539b6b0998182 | 2 | big | sealed | d0a743b0-ad38-11ed-85b5-39b6b0998182 | me
The uuid field points to the "folder" on the storage where the sstable
components are. Like this:
s3
`- test_bucket
`- f7548f00-a64d-11ed-865a-0c1fbc116bb3
`- Data.db
- Index.db
- Filter.db
- ...
It's not very nice that the whole /var/lib/... path is in fact used as
location, it needs the PR #12707 to fix this place.
Also, the "status" part is not yet fully functional, it only supports
three options:
- creating -- the same as TemporaryTOC file exists on disk
- sealed -- default state
- deleting -- the analogy for the deletion log on disk
The latter needs support from the distributed_loader, which's not yet
there. In fact, distributes_loader also needs to be patched to actualy
select entries from this table on load. Also it needs the mentioned
PR #12707 to support staging and quarantine sstables.

And bump the schema version offset since the new schema
should be distinguishable from the previous one.
