253407bdc8 multishard_mutation_query: add badness counters
Add badness counters that allow tracking problems. The following
counters are added:
1) multishard_query_unpopped_fragments
2) multishard_query_unpopped_bytes
3) multishard_query_failed_reader_stops
4) multishard_query_failed_reader_saves

The first pair of counters observe the amount of work range scan queries
have to undo on each page. It is normal for these counters to be
non-zero, however sudden spikes in their values can indicate problems.
This undoing of work is needed for stateful range-scans to work.
When stateful queries are enabled the `multishard_combining_reader` is
dismantled and all unconsumed fragments in its and any of its
intermediate reader's buffers are pushed back into the originating shard
reader's buffer (via `unpop_mutation_fragment()`). This also includes
the `partition_start`, the `static_row` (if there is one) and all
extracted and active `range_tombstone` fragments. This together can
amount to a substantial amount of fragments.
(1) counts the amount of fragments moved back, while (2) counts the
number of bytes. Monitoring size and quantity separately allows for
detecting edge cases like moving many small fragments or just a few huge
ones. The counters count the fragments/bytes moved back to readers
located on the shard they belong to.

The second pair of counters are added to detect any problems around
saving readers. Since the failure to save a reader will not fail the
read itself, it is necessary to add visibility to these failures by
other means.
(3) counts the number of times stopping a shard reader (waiting
on pending read-aheads and next-partitions) failed while (4)
counts the number of times inserting the reader into the `querier_cache`
failed.
Contrary to the first two counters, which will almost certainly never be
zero, these latter two counters should always be zero. Any other value
indicates problems in the respective shards/nodes.

97364c7ad9 database: add query_mutations_on_all_shards()
This method allows for querying a range or ranges on all shards of the
node. Under the hood it uses the multishard_combining_reader for
executing the query.
It supports paging and stateful queries (saving and reusing the readers
between pages). All this is transparent to the client, who only needs to
supply the same query::read_command::query_uuid through the pages of the
query (and supply correct start positions on each page, that match the
stop position of the last page).
