This series extends the scylla_metadata sstable component
to hold an optional testual description of the sstable origin.
It describes where the sstables originated from
(e.g. memtable, repair, streaming, compaction, etc.)
The origin string is provided by the sstable writer via
sstable_writer_config, written to the scylla_metadata component,
and loaded on sstable::load().
A get_origin() method was added to class sstable to retrieve
its origin. It returns an empty string by default if the origin
is missing.
Compaction now logs the sstable origin for each sstable it
compacts, and it generates the sstable origin for all sstables
in generates. Regular compaction origin is simply set to "compaction"
while other compaction types are mentioned by name, as
"cleanup", "resharding", "reshaping", etc.
A unit test was added to test the sstable_origin by writing either
an empty origin and a random string, and then comparing
the origin retrieved by sstable::load to the one written.
Test: unit(release)
Fixes#7880
