We'd like to change the data layout of `interval` to save space.
As a result, start() and end() which return references to data
members must return objects (not references). Since we'd like
to maintain zero-copy for these functions, we change them to
return objects containing references (rather than references
to objects), avoiding copying of potentially expensive objects.
We repurpose the interval_bound class to hold references (by
instantiating it with `const T&` instead of `T`) and provide
converting constructors. To make transform_bounds() retain
zero-copy, we add start() and end() that take *this by
rvalue reference.
We are about to change start() to return a proxy object rather
than a `const interval_bound<T>&`. This is generally transparent,
except in one case: `auto x = i.start()`. With the current implementation,
we'll copy object referred to and assign it to x. With the planned
implementation, the proxy object will be assigned to `x`, but it
will keep referring to `i`.
To prevent such problems, rename start() to start_ref() and end()
to end_ref(). This forces us to audit all calls, and redirect calls
that will break to new start_copy() and end_copy() methods.
Our interval template started life as `range`, and was supported
wrapping to follow Cassandra's convention of wrapping around the
maximum token.
We later recognized that an interval type should usually be non-wrapping
and split it into wrapping_range and nonwrapping_range, with `range`
aliasing wrapping_range to preserve compatibility.
Even later, we realized the name was already taken by C++ ranges and
so renamed it to `interval`. Given that intervals are usually non-wrapping,
the default `interval` type is non-wrapping.
We can now simplify it further, recognizing that everyone assumes
that an interval is non-wrapping and so doesn't need the
nonwrapping_interval_designation. We just rename nonwrapping_interval
to `interval` and remove the type alias.
range.hh was deprecated in bd794629f9 (2020) since its names
conflict with the C++ library concept of an iterator range. The name
::range also mapped to the dangerous wrapping_interval rather than
nonwrapping_interval.
Complete the deprecation by removing range.hh and replacing all the
aliases by the names they point to from the interval library. Note
this now exposes uses of wrapping intervals as they are now explicit.
The unit tests are renamed and range.hh is deleted.
Closesscylladb/scylladb#17428
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
Replace stdx::optional and stdx::string_view with the C++ std
counterparts.
Some instances of boost::variant were also replaced with std::variant,
namely those that called seastar::visit.
Scylla now requires GCC 8 to compile.

This patch changes the type of query::clustering_range to express that
ranges that wrap around are not allowed, and ranges that have the
start bound after the end bound are considered empty.
