Nadav Har'El 921d07a26b cql: make SELECT's "internal page size" configurable
In some uses of SELECT, such as aggregation (sum() et al.), GROUP BY or
secondary index, it needs to perform internal scans. It uses an "internal
page size" which before this patch was always DEFAULT_COUNT_PAGE_SIZE = 10000.

There was an ad-hoc and undocumented way to override this default in C++
tests, using functions in test/lib/select_statement_utils.hh, but it
was so non-obvious that the test that most needed to override this
default - the very slow test test_indexing_paging_and_aggregation which
would have been must faster with a lower setting - never used it.

So in this patch we replace the ad-hoc configuration functions by a
bona-fide Scylla configuration option named "select_internal_page_size".

The few C++ tests that used the old configuration functions were
modified to use the new configuration parameters. The slow test
test_indexing_paging_and_aggregation still doesn't use the new
configuration to become faster - we'll do this in the next patch.

Another benefit of having this "internal page size" as a configuration
option is that one day a user might realize that the default choice
10,000 is bad for some reason (which I can't envision right now), so
having it configurable might come it handy.
