assert() is traditionally disabled in release builds, but not in
scylladb. This hasn't caused problems so far, but the latest abseil
release includes a commit [1] that causes a 1000 insn/op regression when
NDEBUG is not defined.
Clearly, we must move towards a build system where NDEBUG is defined in
release builds. But we can't just define it blindly without vetting
all the assert() calls, as some were written with the expectation that
they are enabled in release mode.
To solve the conundrum, change all assert() calls to a new SCYLLA_ASSERT()
macro in utils/assert.hh. This macro is always defined and is not conditional
on NDEBUG, so we can later (after vetting Seastar) enable NDEBUG in release
mode.

Schema related files are moved there. This excludes schema files that
also interact with mutations, because the mutation module depends on
the schema. Those files will have to go into a separate module.
Closes#12858
Move mutation-related files to a new mutation/ directory. The names
are kept in the global namespace to reduce churn; the names are
unambiguous in any case.
mutation_reader remains in the readers/ module.
mutation_partition_v2.cc was missing from CMakeLists.txt; it's added in this
patch.
This is a step forward towards librarization or modularization of the
source base.
Closes#12788
