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
With the new hashing routine, null values are taken into account
when computing row digest. Previous behavior had a regression
which stopped computing the hash after the first null value
is encountered, but the original behavior was also prone
to errors - e.g. row [1, NULL, 2] was not distinguishable
from [1, 2, NULL], because their hashes were identical.
This hashing is not yet active - it will only be used after
the next commit introduces a proper cluster feature for it.
We add a cluster feature that informs whether the xxHash algorithm is
supported, and allow nodes to switch to it. We use a cluster feature
because older versions are not ready to receive a different digest
algorithm than MD5 when answering a data request.
If we ever should add a new hash algorithm, we would also need to
add a new cluster feature for that algorithm. The alternative would be
to add code so a coordinator could negotiate what digest algorithm to
use with the set of replicas it is contacting.
Fixes#2884

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.
