When murmur3_ignore_msb_bits was introduced in 1.7, we set its default zero
(to avoid resharding on upgrade) and set it to 12 in the scylla.yaml template
(to make sure we get the right value for new clusters).
Now, however, things have changed:
- clusters installed before 1.7 are a small minority
- they should have resharded long ago
- resharding is much better these days
- we have more migrations from Cassandra compared to old clusters
To allow clusters that migrated using their cassandra.yaml, and to clean up
the default scylla.yaml, make the default 12.
Users upgrading from pre-1.7 clusters will need to update their scylla.yaml,
or to reshard (which is a good idea anyway).
Fixes#3670.
