Describing S3 storage for an sstables nowadays has two options -- via
sstables registry entry and by using the direct prefix string. The
former is used when putting a keyspace on S3. In this case each sstable
has the corresponding entry in the system.sstables table. The latter is
used by "restore from object storage" code. In that case, sstables don't
have entries in the registry, but are accessed by a specific S3 object
path.
This patch reflects this difference by making s3_options::location be
variant of string prefix and table_id owner. The owner needs more
explanation, here it is.
Today, the system.sstables schema defines partition key to be "string
location" and clustering key to be "UUID generation". The partition key
is table's datadir string, but it's wrong to use it this way. Next
patches will change the partition key to be table's ID (there's table_id
type for it), and before doing it storage options must be prepared to
carry it onboard. This patch does it, but the table_id alternative of
the location is still unused, the rest of the code keeps using the
string location to reference a row in the registry table. Next patches
will eventually make use of the table_id value.
