Spans are more flexible and can be constructed from any contiguous
container (such as small_vector), or a subrange of such a container.
This can save allocations, so change the signature to accept a span.
Spans cannot be constructed from std::initializer_list, so one such
call site is changed to use construct a span directly from the single
argument.
Now that stateless_aggregate_function is directly exposed by
aggregate_function, we can use it directly, avoiding the intermediary
aggregate_function::aggregate, which is removed.
Now that we don't accept cql protocol version 1 or 2, we can
drop cql_serialization format everywhere, except when in the IDL
(since it's part of the inter-node protocol).
A few functions had duplicate versions, one with and one without
a cql_serialization_format parameter. They are deduplicated.
Care is taken that `partition_slice`, which communicates
the cql_serialization_format across nodes, still presents
a valid cql_serialization_format to other nodes when
transmitting itself and rejects protocol 1 and 2 serialization\
format when receiving. The IDL is unchanged.
One test checking the 16-bit serialization format is removed.
After fcb8d040 ("treewide: use Software Package Data Exchange
(SPDX) license identifiers"), many dual-licensed files were
left with empty comments on top. Remove them to avoid visual
noise.
Closes#10562
Instead of lengthy blurbs, switch to single-line, machine-readable
standardized (https://spdx.dev) license identifiers. The Linux kernel
switched long ago, so there is strong precedent.
Three cases are handled: AGPL-only, Apache-only, and dual licensed.
For the latter case, I chose (AGPL-3.0-or-later and Apache-2.0),
reasoning that our changes are extensive enough to apply our license.
The changes we applied mechanically with a script, except to
licenses/README.md.
Closes#9937
