Dario Mirovic 51995af258 transport: replace throwing protocol_exception with returns
Replace throwing `protocol_exception` with returning it as a result
or an exceptional future in the transport server module. The goal is
to improve performance.

Most of the `protocol_exception` throws were made from
`fragmented_temporary_buffer` module, by passing `exception_thrower()`
to its `read*` methods. `fragmented_temporary_buffer` is changed so
that it now accepts an exception creator, not exception thrower.
`fragmented_temporary_buffer_concepts::ExceptionCreator` concept replaced
`fragmented_temporary_buffer_concepts::ExceptionThrower` and all
methods that have been throwing now return failed result of type
`utils::result_with_exception_ptr`. This change is then propagated to the callers.

The scope of this patch is `protocol_exception`, so commitlog just calls
`.value()` method on the result. If the result failed, that will throw the
exception from the result, as defined by `utils::result_with_exception_ptr_throw_policy`.
This means that the behavior of commitlog module stays the same.

transport server module handles results gracefully. All the caller functions
that return non-future value `T` now return `utils::result_with_exception_ptr<T>`.
When the caller is a function that returns a future, and it receives
failed result, `make_exception_future(std::move(failed_result).value())`
is returned. The rest of the callstack up to the transport server `handle_error`
function is already working without throwing, and that's how zero throws is
achieved.

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).

To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then copy & edit its suite.ini.
