Avi Kivity 078f69c133 Merge "raft: (service) implement group 0 as a service" from Kostja
"
To ensure consistency of schema and topology changes,
Scylla needs a linearizable storage for this data
available at every member of the database cluster.

The series introduces such storage as a service,
available to all Scylla subsystems. Using this service, any other
internal service such as gossip or migrations (schema) could
persist changes to cluster metadata and expect this to be done in
a consistent, linearizable way.

The series uses the built-in Raft library to implement a
dedicated Raft group, running on shard 0, which includes all
members of the cluster (group 0), adds hooks to topology change
events, such as adding or removing nodes of the cluster, to update
group 0 membership, ensures the group is started when the
server boots.

The state machine for the group, i.e. the actual storage
for cluster-wide information still remains a stub. Extending
it to actually persist changes of schema or token ring
is subject to a subsequent series.

Another Raft related service was implemented earlier: Raft Group
Registry. The purpose of the registry is to allow Scylla have an
arbitrary number of groups, each with its own subset of cluster
members and a relevant state machine, sharing a common transport.
Group 0 is one (the first) group among many.
