4b6937b570 alternator/streams: Block tablet merges when Alternator Streams are enabled
DynamoDB Streams API can only convey a single parent per stream shard.
Tablet merges produce 2 parents, which is incompatible. When streams
are requested on a tablet table, block tablet merges via
tablet_merge_blocked (the allocator suppresses new merge decisions and
revokes any active merge decision).

add_stream_options() sets tablet_merge_blocked=true alongside
enabled=true, so CreateTable needs no special handling — the flag
is inert on vnode tables and immediately effective on tablet tables.

For UpdateTable, CDC enablement is deferred: store the user's intent
via enable_requested, and let the topology coordinator finalize
enablement once no in-progress merges remain. A new helper,
defer_enabling_streams_block_tablet_merges(), amends the CDC options
to this deferred state.

Disabling streams clears all flags, immediately re-allowing merges.

The tablet allocator accesses the merge-blocked flag through a
schema::tablet_merges_forbidden() accessor rather than reaching into
CDC options directly.

Mark test_parent_children_merge as xfail and remove downward
(merge) steps from tablet_multipliers in test_parent_filtering and
test_get_records_with_alternating_tablets_count.

31e0315710 Merge 'alternator: fix unnecesary cdc log entries' from Radosław Cybulski
Fix cdc writing unnecesary entries to it's log, like for example when Alternator deletes an item which in reality doesn't exist.

Originally @wps0 tackled this issue. This patch is an extension of his work. His work involved adding `should_skip` function to cdc, which would process a `mutation` object and decide, wherever changes in the object should be added to cdc log or not.

The issue with his approach is that `mutation` object might contain changes for more than one row. If - for example - the `mutation` object contains two changes, delete of non-existing row and create of non-existing row, `should_skip` function will detect changes in second item and allow whole `mutation` (BOTH items) to be added. For example (using python's boto3) running this on empty table:
```
with table.batch_writer() as batch:
    batch.put_item({'p': 'p', 'c': 'c0'})
    batch.delete_item(Key={'p': 'p', 'c': 'c1'})
```
will emit two events ("put" event and "delete" event), even though the item with `c` set to `c1` does not exist (thus can't be deleted). Note, that both entries in batch write must use the same partition key, otherwise upper layer with split them into separate `mutation` objects and the issue will not happen.

The solution is to do similar processing, but consider each change separated from others. This is tricky to implement due to a way cdc works. When cdc processes `mutation` object (containing X changes), it emits cdc entries in phases. Phase 1 - emit `preimage` (old state) for each change (if requested). Phase 2 - for each change emit actual "diff" (update / delete and so on). Phase 3 - emit `postimage` (new state).

We will know if change needs to be skipped during phase 2. By that time phase 1 is completed and preimage for the change is emited. At that moment we set a flag that the change (identified by clustering key value) needs to be skipped - we add a clustering key to a `ignore-rows` set (`_alternator_clustering_keys_to_ignore` variable) and continue normally. Once all phases finish we add a `postprocess` phase (`clean_up_noop_rows` function). It will go through generated cdc mutations and skip all modifications, for which clustering key is in `ignore-rows` set. After skipping we need to do a "cleanup" operation - each generated cdc mutation contain index (incremented by one), if we skipped some parts, the index is not consecutive anymore, so we reindex final changes.

There's a special case worth mentioning - Alternator tables without clustering keys. At that point `mutation` object passed to cdc can contain exactly one change (since different partition keys are splitted by upper layers and Alternator will never emit `mutation` object containing two (or more) changes with the same primary key. Here, when we decide the change is to be skipped we add empty `bytes` object to `ignore-rows` set. When checking `ignore-rows` set, we check if it's empty or not (we don't check for presence of empty `bytes` object).

Note: there might be some confusion between this patch and #28452 patch. Both started from the same error observation and use similar tests for validation, as both are easily triggered by BatchWrite commands (both needs `mutation` object passed to cdc to contain more than one single change). This issue tho is about wrong data written in cdc log and is fixed at cdc, where #28452 is about wrong way of parsing correct cdc data and is fixed at Alternator side of things. Note, that we need #28452 to truly verify (otherwise we will emit correct cdc entries, but Alternator will incorrectly parse them).

Note: to benefit / notice this patch you need `alternator_streams_increased_compatibility` flag turned on.

Note: rework is quite "broad" and covers a lot of ground - every operation, that might result in a no-change to the database state should be tested. An additional test was added - trying to remove a column from non-existing item, as well as trying to remove non-existing column from existing item.

6e5aaa85b6 alternator: fix Alternator writing unnecesary cdc entries
Work in this patch is a result of two bugs - spurious MODIFY event, when
remove column is used in `update_item` on non-existing item and
spurious events, when batch write item mixed noop operations with
operations involving actual changes (the former would still emit
cdc log entries).
The latter issue required rework of Piotr Wieczorek's algorithm,
which fixed former issue as well.

Piotr Wieczorek previously wrote checks, that should
prevent unnecesary cdc events from being written. His implementation
missed the fact, that a single `mutation` object passed to cdc code
to be analysed for cdc log entries can contain modifications for
multiple rows (with the same timestamp - for example as a result
to BatchWriteItem call). His code tries to skip whole `mutation`,
which in such case is not possible, because BatchWriteItem might have
one item that does nothing and second item that does modification
(this is the reason for the second bug).

His algorithm was extended and moved. Originally it was working
as follows - user would sent a `mutation` object with some changes to
be "augmented". The cdc would process those changes and built a set of
cdc log changes based on them, that would be added to cdc log table.
Piotr added a `should_skip` function, which processes user changes and
tried to determine if they all should be dropped or not.
New version, instead of trying to skip adding rows to
cdc log `mutation` object, builds a rows-to-ignore set.
After whole cdc log `mutation` object is completed, it processes it
and go through it row by row. Any row that was previously added to
a `rows_to_ignore` set will now be removed. Remaining rows are written to
new cdc log `mutation` with new clustering key
(`cdc$batch_seq_no` index value should probably be consecutive -
we just want to be safe here) and returns new `mutation` object to
be sent to cdc log table.

The first bug is fixed as a side effect of new algorithm,
which contains more precise checks detecting, if given
mutation actually made a difference.

8948a50f3b cdc: fix on_pre_create_column_families to create CDC log for vector search
The vector-search feature, which is already supported in CQL, introduced
the somewhat confusing feature of enabling CDC without explicitly enabling
CDC: When a vector index is enabled on a table, CDC is "enabled" for it
even if the user didn't ask to enable CDC.

For this, some code in cdc/log.cc began to use cdc_enabled() instead of
checking schema.cdc_options.enabled() directly. This cdc_enabled()
function checks if either this enabled() is true, or has_vector_index()
is true.

But there's another twist to this story: To write with CDC, we also need
to create the CDC log table:

1. In CQL, a vector index can only be added on an existing table (with
   CREATE INDEX), so the hook on_before_update_column_family() is the
   one that noticed that a vector index was added, and created the CDC
   log table.

2. But in Alternator, a vector index can be created up-front with a
   brand-new table (in CreateTable), so the hook for a new table -
   on_pre_create_column_families(), also needs to create the CDC log
   table. It already did, but incorrectly checked just the explicit
   CDC-enabled flag instead of the new cdc_enabled() function that
   also allows vector index.

So this patch just fixes on_pre_create_column_families to use cdc_enabled().

Before this patch, when a vector index will be created in Alternator with
CreateTable, an attempt to write to the table (PutItem) will fail
because it will try to write to the CDC log, which wasn't created.
After this patch, it works. The reproducing test is
test_putitem_vectorindex_createtable (introduced in a later patch).

5998a859f7 tombstone_gc: allow use of repair-mode for RF=1 tables
Modify the methods which calculate the default gc mode as well as that
which validates whether repair-mode can be used at all, so both accepts
use of repair-mode on RF=1 tables.

This de-facto changes the default tombstone-gc to repair-mode for all
tables. Documentation is updated accordingly.

Some tests need adjusting:
* cqlpy/test_select_from_mutation_fragments.py: disable GC for some test
  cases because this patch makes tombstones they write subject to GC
  when using defaults.
* test/cluster/test_mv.py::test_mv_tombstone_gc_not_inherited used
  repair-mode as a non-default for the base table and expected the MV to
  revert to default. Another mode has to be used as the non-default
  (immediate).
* test/cqlpy/test_tools.py::test_scylla_sstable_dump_schema: don't
  compare tombstone_gc schema extension when comparing dumped schema vs.
  original. The tool's schema loader doesn't have access to the keyspace
  definition so it will come up with different defaults for
  tombstone-gc.
* test/boost/row_cache_test.cc::test_populating_cache_with_expired_and_nonexpired_tombstones
  sets tombstone expiry assuming the tombstone-gc timeout-mode default.
  Change the CREATE TABLE statement to set the expected mode.

44c605e59c Merge 'Fix the types of change events in Alternator Streams' from Piotr Wieczorek
This patch increases the compatibility with DynamoDB Streams by integrating the DynamoDB's event type rules (described in https://github.com/scylladb/scylladb/issues/6918) into Alternator. The main changes are:
- introduce a new flag `alternator_streams_strict_compatibility`, meant as a guard of performance-intensive operations that increase the compatibility with DynamoDB Streams. If enabled, Alternator always performs a RBW before a data-modifying operation, and propagates its result to CDC. Then, the old item is compared to the new one, to determine the mutation type (INSERT vs MODIFY). This option is a no-op for tables with disabled Alternator Streams,
- reduce splitting of simple Alternator mutations,
- correctly distinguish event types described in #6918, except for item deletes. Deleting a missing item with DeleteItem, BatchWriteItem, or a missing field with UpdateItem still emit REMOVEs.

To summarize, the emitted events of the data manipulation operations should be as follows:
- DeleteItem/BatchWriteItem.DeleteItem of existing item: REMOVE (OK)
- DeleteItem of nonexistent item: nothing (OK)
- BatchWriteItem.DeleteItem of nonexistent item: nothing (OK)
- PutItem/UpdateItem/BatchWriteItem.PutItem of existing and not equal item: MODIFY (OK)
- PutItem/UpdateItem/BatchWriteItem.PutItem of existing and equal item: nothing (OK)
- PutItem/UpdateItem/BatchWriteItem.PutItem of nonexistent item: INSERT (OK)

No backport is necessary.

The feature should be disabled, when trying to check headers - otherwise
you might get false negatives on missing includes from seastar / abseil and so on.

0602afc085 cdc: Preserve properties when reattaching log table
When we enable CDC on a table, Scylla creates a log table for it.
It has default properties, but the user may change them later on.
Furthermore, it's possible to detach that log table by simply
disabling CDC on the base table:

```cql
/* Create a table with CDC enabled. The log table is created. */
CREATE TABLE ks.t (pk int PRIMARY KEY) WITH cdc = {'enabled': true};

/* Detach the log table. */
ALTER TABLE ks.t WITH cdc = {'enabled': false};

/* Modify a property of the log table. */
ALTER TABLE ks.t_scylla_cdc_log WITH bloom_filter_fp_chance = 0.13;
```

The log table can also be reattached by enabling CDC on the base table
again:

```cql
/* Reattach the log table */
ALTER TABLE ks.t WITH cdc = {'enabled': true};
```

However, because the process of reattachment goes through the same
code that created it in the first place, the properties of the log
table are rolled back to their default values. This may be confusing
to the user and, if unnoticed, also have other consequences, e.g.
affecting performance.

To prevent that, we ensure that the properties are preserved.

A reproducer test,
`test_log_table_preserves_properties_after_reattachment`, has been
provided to verify that the changes are correct. It fails before this
commit.

Another test, `test_log_table_preserves_id_after_reattachment`, has
also been added because the current implementation sets properties
and the ID separately.

039323d889 cdc: check if recreating a column too soon
When we drop a column from a CDC log table, we set the column drop
timestamp a few seconds into the future. This can cause unexpected
problems if a user tries to recreate a CDC column too soon, before
the drop timestamp has passed.

To prevent this issue, when creating a CDC column we check its
creation timestamp against the existing drop timestamp, if any, and
fail with an informative error if the recreation attempt is too soon.

48298e38ab cdc: set column drop timestamp in the future
When dropping a column from a CDC log table, set the column drop
timestamp several seconds into the future.

If a value is written to a column concurrently with dropping that
column, the value's timestamp may be after the column drop timestamp. If
this value is also flushed to an SSTable, the SSTable would be
corrupted, because it considers the column missing after the drop
timestamp and doesn't allow values for it.

While this issue affects general tables, it especially impacts CDC tables
because this scenario can occur when writing to a table with CDC preimage
enabled while dropping a column from the base table. This happens even if
the base mutation doesn't write to the dropped column, because CDC log
mutations can generate values for a column even if the base mutation doesn't.
For general tables, this issue can be avoided by simply not writing to a
column while dropping it.

We fix this for the more problematic case of CDC log tables by setting
the column drop timestamp several seconds into the future, ensuring that
writes concurrent with column drops are much less likely to have
timestamps greater than the column drop timestamp.

2e5eb92f21 Merge 'cdc: use CDC schema that is compatible with the base schema' from Michael Litvak
When generating CDC log mutations for some base mutation, use a CDC schema that is compatible with the base schema.

The compatible CDC schema has for every base column a corresponding CDC column with the same name. If using a non-compatible schema, we may encounter a situation, especially during ALTER, that we have a mutation with a base column set with some value, but the CDC schema doesn't have a column by that name. This would cause the user request to fail with an error.

We add to the schema object a schema_ptr that for CDC-enabled tables points to the schema object of the CDC table that is compatible with the schema. It is set by the schema merge algorithm when creating the schema for a table that is created or altered. We use the fact that a base table and its CDC table are created and altered in the same group0 operation, and this way we can find and set the cdc schema for a base table.

When transporting the base schema as a frozen schema between shards, we transport with it the frozen cdc schema as well.

The patch starts with a series of refactoring commits that make extending the frozen schema easier and cleans up some duplication in the code about the frozen schema. We combine the two types `frozen_schema_with_base_info` and `view_schema_and_base_info` to a single type `extended_frozen_schema` that holds a frozen schema with additional data that is not part of the schema mutations but needs to be transported with it to unfreeze it - base_info, and the frozen cdc schema which is added in a later commit.

sets for tablets.

a cdc stream set usually represents all streams for a specific table and
timestamp, and has a stream id per each tablet of the table. each stream
id is represented by 16 bytes. thus the vector could require quite large
contiguous allocations for a table that has many tablets. change it to
chunked_vector to avoid large contiguous allocations.

This commit addresses this DynamoDB compatibility issue if the delete is
a partition delete, a row delete, or a cell delete. It works under the
assumption that the change was produced by Alternator. This means that
it doesn't support range deletes, static row deletes, deletes of
collection cells other than a map, etc. See also its parent commit,
which introduces the methods that this commit extends.

This commit adds a function that compares split mutations with the
`row_state`, that was selected as a preimage or propagated through
cdc options by a caller. If the items are equal, the corresponding log
row isn't generated. The result being that creating an item with
BatchWriteItem, PutItem, or UpdateItem doesn't emit an INSERT/MODIFY
event if exactly identical item already exists.

Comparing the items may be costly, so this logic is controlled by
`alternator_streams_compabitiblity` flag.

e3fde8087a cdc: Don't split a row marker away from row cells
CDC log table records a mutation as a sequence of log rows that record
an atomic change (i.e. a row marker, tombstones, etc.), whereas a
mutation in Alternator Streams always appears as a single log row. The
type of operation is determined based on the type of the last log row in
CDC.

As a result, updates that create a row always appeared to Alternator
Streams as an update (row marker + data), rather than an insert. This
commit makes them a single log row. Its operation type is insert if it
contains a row marker, and an update otherwise, which gives results
consistent with DynamoDB Streams.

2812e67f47 cdc: Emit a preimage for non-clustered tables
Until this patch, CDC haven't fetched a preimage for mutations
containing only a partition tombstone. Therefore, single-row deletions
in a table witout a clustering key didn't include a preimage, which was
inconsistent with single-row clustered deletions. This commit addresses
this inconsistency.

Second reason is compatibility with DynamoDB Streams, which doesn't
support entire-partition deletes. Alternator uses partition tombstones
for single-row deletions, though, and in these cases the 'OldImage' was
missing from REMOVE records.

8743422241 cdc: improve cdc metadata loading
when loading CDC streams metadata for tablets from the tables, read only
new entries from the history table instead of reading all entries. This
improves the CDC metadata reloading, making it more efficient and
predictable.

the CDC metadata is loaded as part of group0 reload whenever the
internal CDC tables are modified. on tablet split / merge, we create a
new CDC timestamp and streams by writing them to the cdc_streams_history
table by group0 operation, and when it's applied we reload the in-memory
CDC streams map by reading from the tables and constructing the updated map.

Previously, on every update, we would read the entire
cdc_streams_history entries for the changed table, constructing all its
streams and creating a new map from scratch.

We improve this now by reading only new entries from cdc_streams_history
and append them to the existing map. we can do this because we only
append new entries to cdc_streams_history with higher timestamp than all
previous entries.

This makes this reloading more efficient and predictable, because
previously we would read a number of entries that depends on the number
of tablets splits and merges, which increases over time and is
unbounded, whereas now we read only a single stream set on each update.

440caeabcb cdc: helpers for garbage collecting old streams for tablets
introduce helper functions that can be used for garbage collecting old
cdc streams for tablets-based keyspaces.

- get_new_base_for_gc: finds a new base timestamp given a TTL, such that
  all older timestamps and streams can be removed.
- get_cdc_stream_gc_mutations: given new base timestamp and streams,
  builds mutations that update the internal cdc tables and remove the
  older streams.
- garbage_collect_cdc_streams_for_table: combines the two functions
  above to find a new base and build mutations to update it for a
  specific table
- garbage_collect_cdc_streams: builds gc mutations for all cdc tables

448e14a3b7 cdc: use compatiable cdc schema
in the CDC log transformer, when augmenting a base mutation, use the CDC
log schema that is compatible with the base schema, if set.

Now that the base schema has a pointer to its CDC schema, we can use it
instead of getting the current schema from the db, which may not be
compatible with the base schema.

The compatible CDC schema may not be set if the cluster is not using
raft mode for schema. In this case, we maintain the previous behavior.

a3ec6c7d1d alternator/streams: Support userIdentity field for TTL deletions
UserIdentity is a map of two fields in GetRecords responses, which
always has the same value. It may be missing, or contain a constant
object with value `{"type": "Service", "principalId":
"dynamodb.amazonaws.com"}`. Currently, the latter is set only for
`REMOVE`s triggered by TTL.

This commit introduces two new CDC operation types: `service_row_delete`
and `service_partition_delete`, emitted in place of `row_delete` and
`partition_delete`. Alternator Streams treats them as regular `REMOVE`s,
but in addition adds the `userIdentity` field to the record.

This change may break existing Scylla libraries for reading raw CDC
tables, but we doubt that anybody has this use case.

c255740989 schema: Allow configuring consistency setting for a keyspace
We want to add strongly consistent tables as an option. We will have
two kind of strongly consistent tables: globally consistent and locally
consistent. The former means that requests from all DCs will be globally
linearisable while the later - only requests to the same DCs will be
linearisable.  To allow configuring all the possibilities the patch
adds new parameter to a keyspace definition "consistency" that can be
configured to be `eventual`, `global` or `local`. Non eventual setting
is supported for tablets enabled keyspaces only. Since we want to start
with implementing local consistency configuring global consistency will
result in an error for now.

d4581cc442 cdc: Support prefetched preimages
This commit adds support to pass a preimage selected by an upper layer
to CDC. The responsibility for the correctness of the preimage (i.e. the
selected columns, whether it's up to date, etc.) lies with the caller.
It may be improved in the future by validating the preimage, e.g. by
"slicing" the received preimage to the necessary columns.

The motivation behind this change was to reduce the number of
read-before-writes and avoid reading the row twice for Alternator
Streams in an increased compatibility mode with DynamoDB. This is to be
added in a following commit. Until now, this commit should be a no-op.

86ed627fc4 compaction: move code to namespace compaction
The namespace usage in this directory is very inconsistent, with files
and classes scattered in:
* global namespace
* namespace compaction
* namespace sstables

With cases, where all three used in the same file. This code used to
live in sstables/ and some of it still retains namespace sstables as a
heritage of that time. The mismatch between the dir (future module) and
the namespace used is confusing, so finish the migration and move all
code in compaction/ to namespace compaction too.

This patch, although large, is mechanic and only the following kind of
changes are made:
* replace namespace sstable {} with namespace compaction {}
* add namespace compaction {}
* drop/add sstables::
* drop/add compaction::
* move around forward-declarations so they are in the correct namespace
  context

This refactoring revealed some awkward leftover coupling between
sstables and compaction, in sstables/sstable_set.cc, where the
make_sstable_set() methods of compaction strategies are implemented.

5f55787e50 Merge 'CDC with tablets' from Michael Litvak
initial implementation to support CDC in tablets-enabled keyspaces.

The design is described in https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qO5f2q5QoN5z1-rYOQFu6tqVLD3Ha6pphXKEqbtSNiU/edit?usp=sharing
It is followed closely for the most part except "Deciding when to change streams" - instead, streams are changed synchronously with tablet split / merge.
Instead of the stream switching algorithm with the double writes, we use a scheme similar to the previous method for vnodes - we add the new streams with timestamp that is sufficiently far into the future.

In this PR we:
* add new group0-based internal system tables for tablet stream metadata and loading it into in-memory CDC metadata
* add virtual tables for CDC consumers
* the write coordinator chooses a stream by looking up the appropriate stream in the CDC metadata
* enable creating tables with CDC enabled in tablets-enabled keyspaces. tablets are allocated for the CDC table, and a stream is created per each tablet.
* on tablet resize (split / merge), the topology coordinator creates a new stream set with a new stream for each new tablet.
* the cdc tablets are co-located with the base tablets

98de3f0e86 topology coordinator: change streams on tablet split/merge
on tablet split/merge finalization, generate a new CDC timestamp and
stream set for the table with a new stream for each tablet in the new
tablet map, in order to maintain synchronization of the CDC streams with
the tablets.

We pick a new timestamp for the streams with a small delay into the
future so that all nodes can learn about the new streams in time, in the
same way it's done for vnodes.

the new timestamp and streams are published by adding a mutation to the
cdc_streams_history table that contains the timestamp and the sets of
closed and opened streams from the current timestamp.

b8442c6087 cdc: virtual tables for cdc with tablets
Define two new virtual tables in system keyspace: cdc_timestamps and
cdc_streams. They expose the internal cdc metadata for tablets-enabled
keyspace to be consumed by users consuming the CDC log.

cdc_timestamps lists all timestamps for a table where a stream change
occured.

cdc_streams list additionally the current streams sets for each
table and timestamp, as well as difference - closed and opened streams -
from the previous stream set.

5f6bb0af9d cdc: choose stream in tablets enabled keyspaces
When choosing a CDC stream to generate CDC log writes to, if the
keyspace uses tablets, we need to choose a stream according to the
relevant metadata which is specific to tablets-enabled keyspaces.

We define the method get_tablet_stream that given a table, write
timestamp, and token, returns the stream that the log entry should
be written to.

The method works by looking up the stream metadata of the table, then
finding the relevant stream set by timestamp, and finally finding
the stream that covers the token range that contains the token.
