"sstable_streamed_mutation::fast_forward_to() is changed to use promoted index
(via index_reader) to optimize skipping in large partitions.
In addition to that, sstable mutation_reader is changed to use the index
to skip to the next partition.
Performance impact was evaluated using newly added tests/perf/perf_fast_forward
What's beyond this series:
- Using index_reader for single-partition reads as well
- Using index_reader for skipping across ranges in clustering restrictions"
