1e9cf3badd cdc: generation: get_cdc_generation_mutations: take timestamp as parameter
The function would generate a mutation timestamp for itself, take it as
parameter instead. We'll use timestamps provided by Group 0 APIs when
creating CDC generations during Group 0- based topology changes.

3e863d0e58 sys_dist_ks: make get_cdc_generation_mutations public
It was a `static` function inside system_distributed_keyspace. Later it
will be used for another table living in system_keyspace, so move it
outside, to the CDC generations module, and make it accessible from
other places.

0e84662910 sys_dist_ks: move mutation size threshold calculation outside get_cdc_generation_mutations
The function turns a `cdc::topology_description` into a vector of
mutations. It decides when to push_back a new mutation (instead of
extending an existing one) based on certain parameters. This calculation
is specific to where we insert the mutation later.

Move the calculation outside, to the function which does the insertion.
`get_cdc_generation_mutations` will be used outside this function later.

3ef201d67a schema.hh: use schema_static_props for wait_for_sync_to_commitlog
This patch continues the refactoring, now we move
wait_for_sync_to_commitlog property from schema_builder to
schema_static_props.

The patch replaces schema_builder::set_wait_for_sync_to_commitlog
and is_extra_durable with two register_static_configurator,
one in system_keyspace and another in system_distributed_keyspace.
They correspond to the two parts of the original disjunction
in schema_tables::is_extra_durable.

df63e2ba27 types: move types.{cc,hh} into types
they are part of the CQL type system, and are "closer" to types.
let's move them into "types" directory.

the building systems are updated accordingly.

the source files referencing `types.hh` were updated using following
command:

```
find . -name "*.{cc,hh}" -exec sed -i 's/\"types.hh\"/\"types\/types.hh\"/' {} +
```

the source files under sstables include "types.hh", which is
indeed the one located under "sstables", so include "sstables/types.hh"
instea, so it's more explicit.

b4c5b79f5e db: system_distributed_keyspace: don't call on_internal_error in check_exists
The function `check_exists` checks whether a given table exists, giving
an error otherwise. It previously used `on_internal_error`.

`check_exists` is used in some old functions that insert CDC metadata to
CDC tables. These tables are no longer used in newer Scylla versions
(they were replaced with other tables with different schema), and this
function is no longer called. The table definitions were removed and
these tables are no longer created. They will only exists in clusters
that were upgraded from old versions of Scylla (4.3) through a sequence
of upgrades.

If you tried to upgrade from a very old version of Scylla which had
neither the old or the new tables to a modern version, say from 4.2 to
5.0, you would get `on_internal_error` from this `check_exists`
function. Fortunately:
1. we don't support such upgrade paths
2. `on_internal_error` in production clusters does not crash the system,
   only throws. The exception would be catched, printed, and the system
   would run (just without CDC - until you finished upgrade and called
   the propoer nodetool command to fix the CDC module).

Unfortunately, there is a dtest (`partitioner_tests.py`) which performs
an unsupported upgrade scenario - it starts Scylla from Cassandra (!)
work directories, which is like upgrading from a very old version of
Scylla.

This dtest was not failing due to another bug which masked the problem.
When we try to fix the bug - see #11225 - the dtest starts hitting the
assertion in `check_exists`. Because it's a test, we configure
`on_internal_error` to crash the system.

The point of this commit is to not crash the system in this rare
scenario which happens only in some weird tests. We now throw
`std::runtime_error` instead of calling `on_internal_error`. In the
dtest, we already ignore the resulting CDC error appearing in the logs
(see scylladb/scylla-dtest#2804). Together with this change, we'll be
able to fix the #11225 bug and pass this test.

e0c7178e75 query_processor: remove default internal query caching behavior
When executing internal queries, it is important that the developer
will decide if to cache the query internally or not since internal
queries are cached indefinitely. Also important is that the programmer
will be aware if caching is going to happen or not.
The code contained two "groups" of `query_processor::execute_internal`,
one group has caching by default and the other doesn't.
Here we add overloads to eliminate default values for caching behaviour,
forcing an explicit parameter for the caching values.
All the call sites were changed to reflect the original caching default
that was there.

044e05b0d9 service: migration_manager: announce: take a description parameter
The description parameter is used for the group 0 history mutation.

0af5f74871 db: system_distributed_keyspace: use current time when creating mutations in start()
When creating or updating internal distributed tables in
`system_distributed_keyspace::start()`, hardcoded timestamps were used.

There two reasons for this:
- to protect against issue #2129, where nodes would start without
  synchronizing schema with the existing cluster, creating the tables
  again, which would override any manual user changes to these tables.
  The solution was to use small timestamps (like api::min_timestamp) - the
  user-created schema mutations would always 'win' (because when they were
  created, they used current time).
- to eliminate unnecessary schema sync. If two nodes created these
  tables concurrently with different timestamps, the schemas would
  formally be different and would need to merge. This could happen
  during upgrades when we upgraded from a version which doesn't have
  these tables or doesn't have some columns.

The #2129 workaround is no longer necessary: when nodes start they always
have to sync schema with existing nodes; we also don't allow
bootstrapping nodes in parallel.

The second problem would happen during parallel bootstrap, which we
don't allow, or during parallel upgrade. The procedure we recommend is
rolling upgrade - where nodes are upgraded one by one. In this case only
one node is going to create/update the tables; following upgraded nodes
will sync schema first and notice they don't need to do anything. So if
procedures are followed correctly, the workaround is not needed. If
someone doesn't follow the procedures and upgrades nodes in parallel,
these additional schema synchronizations are not a big cost, so the
workaround doesn't give us much in this case as well.

When schema changes are performed by Raft group 0, certain constraints
are placed on the timestamps used for mutations. For this we'll need to
be able to use timestamps which are generated based on current time.

d768e9fac5 cql3, related: switch to data_dictionary
Stop using database (and including database.hh) for schema related
purposes and use data_dictionary instead.

data_dictionary::database::real_database() is called from several
places, for these reasons:

 - calling yet-to-be-converted code
 - callers with a legitimate need to access data (e.g. system_keyspace)
   but with the ::database accessor removed from query_processor.
   We'll need to find another way to supply system_keyspace with
   data access.
 - to gain access to the wasm engine for testing whether used
   defined functions compile. We'll have to find another way to
   do this as well.

The change is a straightforward replacement. One case in
modification_statement had to change a capture, but everything else
was just a search-and-replace.

Some files that lost "database.hh" gained "mutation.hh", which they
previously had access to through "database.hh".

a3f3563828 storage_service: check for existing normal token owners before bootstrapping
The bootstrap procedure starts by "waiting for range setup", which means
waiting for a time interval specified by the `ring_delay` parameter (30s
by default) so the node can receive the tokens of other nodes before
introducing its own tokens.

However it may sometimes happen that the node doesn't receive the
tokens. There are no explicit checks for this. But the code may crash in
weird ways if the tokens-received assuption is false, and we are lucky
if it does crash (instead of, for example, allowing the node to
incorrectly bootstrap, causing data loss in the process).

Introduce an explicit check-and-throw-if-false: a bootstrapping node now
checks that there's at least one NORMAL token in the token ring, which
means that it had to have contacted at least one existing node
in the cluster, which means that it received the gossip application
states of all nodes from that node; in particular the tokens of all
nodes.

Also add an assert in CDC code which relies on that assumption
(and would cause weird division-by-zero errors if the assumption
was false; better to crash on assert than this).

389a0a52c9 treewide: revamp workload type for service levels
This patch is not backward compatible with its original,
but it's considered fine, since the original workload types were not
yet part of any release.
The changes include:
 - instead of using 'unspecified' for declaring that there's no workload
   type for a particular service level, NULL is used for that purpose;
   NULL is the standard way of representing lack of data
 - introducing a delete marker, which accompanies NULL and makes it
   possible to distinguish between wanting to forcibly reset a workload
   type to unspecified and not wanting to change the previous value
 - updating the tests accordingly

These changes come in as a single patch, because they're intertwined
with each other and the tests for workload types are already in place;
an attempt to split them proved to be more complicated than it's worth.

Tests: unit(release)

5f8484897b Merge 'cdc: use a new internal table for exchanging generations' from Kamil Braun
Reopening #8286 since the token metadata fix that allows `Everywhere` strategy tables to work with RBO (#8536) has been merged.

---
Currently when a node wants to create and broadcast a new CDC generation
it performs the following steps:
1. choose the generation's stream IDs and mapping (how this is done is
   irrelevant for the current discussion)
2. choose the generation's timestamp by taking the current time
   (according to its local clock) and adding 2 * ring_delay
3. insert the generation's data (mapping and stream IDs) into
   system_distributed.cdc_generation_descriptions, using the
   generation's timestamp as the partition key (we call this table
   the "old internal table" below)
4. insert the generation's timestamp into the "CDC_STREAMS_TIMESTAMP"
   application state.

The timestamp spreads epidemically through the gossip protocol. When
nodes see the timestamp, they retrieve the generation data from the
old internal table.

Unfortunately, due to the schema of the old internal table, where
the entire generation data is stored in a single cell, step 3 may fail for
sufficiently large generations (there is a size threshold for which step
3 will always fail - retrying the operation won't help). Also the old
internal table lies in the system_distributed keyspace that uses
SimpleStrategy with replication factor 3, which is also problematic; for
example, when nodes restart, they must reach at least 2 out of these 3
specific replicas in order to retrieve the current generation (we write
and read the generation data with QUORUM, unless we're a single-node
cluster, where we use ONE). Until this happens, a restarting
node can't coordinate writes to CDC-enabled tables. It would be better
if the node could access the last known generation locally.

The commit introduces a new table for broadcasting generation data with
the following properties:
-  it uses a better schema that stores the data in multiple rows, each
   of manageable size
-  it resides in a new keyspace that uses EverywhereStrategy so the
   data will be written to every node in the cluster that has a token in
   the token ring
-  the data will be written using CL=ALL and read using CL=ONE; thanks
   to this, restarting node won't have to communicate with other nodes
   to retrieve the data of the last known generation. Note that writing
   with CL=ALL does not reduce availability: creating a new generation
   *requires* all nodes to be available anyway, because they must learn
   about the generation before their clocks go past the generation's
   timestamp; if they don't, partitions won't be mapped to stream IDs
   consistently across the cluster
-  the partition key is no longer the generation's timestamp. Because it
   was that way in the old internal table, it forced the algorithm to
   choose the timestamp *before* the generation data was inserted into
   the table. What if the inserting took a long time? It increased the
   chance that nodes would learn about the generation too late (after
   their clocks moved past its timestamp). With the new schema we will
   first insert the generation data using a randomly generated UUID as
   the partition key, *then* choose the timestamp, then gossip both the
   timestamp and the UUID.
   Observe that after a node learns about a generation broadcasted using
   this new method through gossip it will retrieve its data very quickly
   since it's one of the replicas and it can use CL=ONE as it was
   written using CL=ALL.

The generation's timestamp and the UUID mentioned in the last point form
a "generation identifier" for this new generation. For passing these new

Fixes #7961.

d45574ed28 sys_dist_ks: fix redundant parsing in get_service_level
The routine used for getting service level information already
operates on the service level name, but the same information is
also parsed once more from a row from an internal table.
This parsing is redundant, so it's hereby removed.

c948573398 sys_dist_ks: don't create old CDC generations table on service initialization
The old table won't be created in clusters that are bootstrapped after
this commit. It will stay in clusters that were upgraded from a version
before this commit.

Note that a fully upgraded cluster doesn't automatically create a new
generation in the new format. Even if the last generation was created
before the upgrade, the cluster will keep using it.
A new generation will be created in the new format when either:
1. a new node bootstraps (in the new version),
2. or the user runs checkAndRepairCdcStreams, which has a new check: if
   the current generation uses the old format, the command will decide
   that repair is needed, even if the generation is completely fine
   otherwise (also in the new version).

During upgrade, while the CDC_GENERATIONS_V2 feature is still not
enabled, the user may still bootstrap a node in the old version of
Scylla or run checkAndRepairCdcStreams on a not-yet-upgraded node. In
that case a new generation will be created in the old format,
using the old table definitions.

2835697ac1 sys_dist_ks: rename all_tables() to ensured_tables()
The static function `all_tables` in system_distributed_keyspace.cc was
used by the `system_distributed_keyspace` service initialization
function (`start()`) to ensure that a certain set of tables - which the
service provides accessors to - exist in the cluster. For each table in
the vector returned by `all_tables()` the function would try to create
the table, ignoring the "table already exists" error if it is thrown.

The commit renames `all_tables` to `ensured_tables` to better convey the
intention of this function and documents its purpose in a comment.

We do this because in the future the service may provide accessors to
tables which it *does not* actually create. The example - coming in a
later commit - is a table which was created in a previous version of
Scylla, and for which we still have to provide accessors for backward
compatibility / correct handling of the upgrade procedure, but which we
do not want to create in clusters that were freshly created using the
new version of Scylla, since in that case these tables would be just
unnecessary garbage. We mention this use case in the comment.

3155cde9c8 sys_dist_ks: new table for exchanging CDC generations
Currently when a node wants to create and broadcast a new CDC generation
it performs the following steps:
1. choose the generation's stream IDs and mapping (how this is done is
   irrelevant for the current discussion)
2. choose the generation's timestamp by taking the current time
   (according to its local clock) and adding 2 * ring_delay
3. insert the generation's data (mapping and stream IDs) into
   system_distributed.cdc_generation_descriptions, using the
   generation's timestamp as the partition key (we call this table
   the "old internal table" below)
4. insert the generation's timestamp into the "CDC_STREAMS_TIMESTAMP"
   application state.

The timestamp spreads epidemically through the gossip protocol. When
nodes see the timestamp, they retrieve the generation data from the
old internal table.

Unfortunately, due to the schema of the old internal table, where
the entire generation data is stored in a single cell, step 3 may fail for
sufficiently large generations (there is a size threshold for which step
3 will always fail - retrying the operation won't help). Also the old
internal table lies in the system_distributed keyspace that uses
SimpleStrategy with replication factor 3, which is also problematic; for
example, when nodes restart, they must reach at least 2 out of these 3
specific replicas in order to retrieve the current generation (we write
and read the generation data with QUORUM, unless we're a single-node
cluster, where we use ONE). Until this happens, a restarting
node can't coordinate writes to CDC-enabled tables. It would be better
if the node could access the last known generation locally.

The commit introduces a new table for broadcasting generation data with
the following properties:
-  it uses a better schema that stores the data in multiple rows, each
   of manageable size
-  it resides in the `system_distributed_everywhere` keyspace so the
   data will be written to every node in the cluster that has a token in
   the token ring
-  the data will be written using CL=ALL and read using CL=ONE; thanks
   to this, restarting node won't have to communicate with other nodes
   to retrieve the data of the last known generation. Note that writing
   with CL=ALL does not reduce availability: creating a new generation
   *requires* all nodes to be available anyway, because they must learn
   about the generation before their clocks go past the generation's
   timestamp; if they don't, partitions won't be mapped to stream IDs
   consistently across the cluster
-  the partition key is no longer the generation's timestamp. Because it
   was that way in the old internal table, it forced the algorithm to
   choose the timestamp *before* the generation data was inserted into
   the table. What if the inserting took a long time? It increased the
   chance that nodes would learn about the generation too late (after
   their clocks moved past its timestamp). With the new schema we will
   first insert the generation data using a randomly generated UUID as
   the partition key, *then* choose the timestamp, then gossip both the
   timestamp and the UUID. The timestamp and the UUID form the
   "generation identifier" of this new generation; this should explain
   why we introduced the generation_id_v2 type in previous commits.
   Observe that after a node learns about a generation broadcasted using
   this new method through gossip it will retrieve its data very quickly
   since it's one of the replicas and it can use CL=ONE as it was
   written using CL=ALL.

Note that the node is still using the old method - the actual switch
will be done in a later commit.

4658adbe18 tree-wide: introduce cdc::generation_id_v2
This is a new type of CDC generation identifiers. Compared to old IDs,
additionally to the timestamp it contains an UUID.

These new identifiers will allow a safer and more efficient algorithm of
introducing new generations into a cluster (introduced in a later commit).

For now, nodes keep using the old identifier format when creating new
generations and whenever they learn about a new CDC generation from gossip
they assume that it also is stored in the v1 format. But they do know how
to (de)serialize the second format and how to persist new identifiers in
local tables.

ad661561c8 db: stop using infinite timeout for service level updates
Due to a porting bug, the routines for updating service levels
used the default infinite timeout for internal CQL queries,
which causes Scylla to hang on shutdown. The behavior is now
fixed and the routines use the same timeout as the other
similar functions - 10s at the time of writing this message.
