Avi Kivity 7646e1448a Merge 'cql3: Introduce RF-rack-valid keyspaces' from Dawid Mędrek
This PR is an introductory step towards enforcing
RF-rack-valid keyspaces in Scylla.

The scope of changes:
* defining RF-rack-valid keyspaces,
* introducing a configuration option enforcing RF-rack-valid
  keyspaces,
* restricting the CREATE and ALTER KEYSPACE statements
  so that they never lead to RF-rack invalid keyspaces,
* during the initialization of a node, it verifies that all existing
  keyspaces are RF-rack-valid. If not, the initialization fails.

We provide tests verifying that the changes behave as intended.

---

Note that there are a number of things that still need to be implemented.
That includes, for instance, restricting topology operations too.

---

Implementation strategy (going beyond the scope of this PR):

1. Introduce the new configuration option `rf_rack_valid_keyspaces`.
2. Start enforcing RF-rack-validity in keyspaces if the option is enabled.
3. Adjust the tests: in the tree and out of it. Explicitly enable the option in all tests.
4. Once the tests have been adjusted, change the default value of the option to enabled.
5. Stop explicitly enabling the option in tests.
6. Get rid of the option.

        :hidden:
    
        Page X </folder1/article1>
        Page Y </folder1/article2>
        Your New Page </folder1/your-new-article>

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • poetry
  • make

See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine
