Garbage collected sstables created during incremental compaction are
deleted only at the end of the compaction, which increases the memory
footprint. This is inefficient, especially considering that the related
input sstables are released regularly during compaction.
This commit implements incremental release of GC sstables after each
output sstable is sealed. Unlike regular input sstables, GC sstables
use a different exhaustion predicate: a GC sstable is only released
when its token range no longer overlaps with any remaining input
sstable. This is because GC sstables hold tombstones that may shadow
data in still-alive overlapping input sstables; releasing them
prematurely would cause data resurrection.

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
We use boost test logging primarily to generate nice XML xunit
files used in Jenkins. These XML files can be bloated
with messages from BOOST_TEST_MESSAGE(), hundreds of megabytes
of build archives, on every build.
Let's use seastar logger for test logging instead, reserving
the use of boost log facilities for boost test markup information.
