Currently truncating a table works by issuing an RPC to all the nodes which call `database::truncate_table_on_all_shards()`, which makes sure that older writes are dropped.
It works with tablets, but is not safe. A concurrent replication process may bring back old data.
This change makes makes TRUNCATE TABLE a topology operation, so that it excludes with other processes in the system which could interfere with it. More specifically, it makes TRUNCATE a global topology request.
Backporting is not needed.
