If we're talking to just one replica, the digest is not going to be used,
so better not to calculate it at all. The optimization helps with
LOCAL_ONE queries where the result is large, but does not contain large
blobs (many small rows).
This patch adds a digest_algorithm parameter to the READ_DATA verb that
can take on two values: none and MD5 (default), and sets it to none when
we're reading from one replica.
In the future we may add other values for more hardware-friendly digest
algorithms.

This patch adds support to send a cell's ttl as part of a query's
result. This is needed for thrift support.

The query result footprint for cassandra-stress mutation as reported
by tests/memory-footprint increased by 18% from 285 B to 337 B.
perf_simple_query shows slight regression in throughput (-8%):
build/release/tests/perf/perf_simple_query -c4 -m1G --partitions 100000
Before: ~433k tps
After: ~400k tps
We want the format of query results to be eventually defined in the
IDL and be independent of the format we use in memory to represent
collections. This change is a step in this direction.
The change decouples format of collection cells in query results from
our in-memory representation. We currently use collection_mutation_view,
after the change we will use CQL binary protocol format. We use that because
it requires less transformations on the coordinator side.
One complication is that some list operations need to retrieve keys
used in list cells, not only values. To satisfy this need, new query
option was added called "collections_as_maps" which will cause lists
and sets to be reinterpreted as maps matching their underlying
representation. This allows the coordinator to generate mutations
referencing existing items in lists.
