Currently s3::client is created for each sstable::storage. It's later shared between sstable's files and upload sink(s). Also foreign_sstable_open_info can produce a file from a handle making a new standalone client. Coupled with the seastar's http client spawning connections on demand, this makes it impossible to control the amount of opened connections to object storage server.
In order to put some policy on top of that (as well as apply workload prioritization) s3 clients should be collected in one place and then shared by users. Since s3::client uses seastar::http::client under the hood which, in turn, can generate many connections on demand, it's enough to produce a single s3::client per configured endpoint one each shard and then share it between all the sstables, files and sinks.
There's one difficulty however, solving which is most of what this PR does. The file handle, that's used to transfer sstable's file across shards, should keep aboard all it needs to re-create a file on another shard. Since there's a single s3::client per shard, creation of a file out of a handle should grab that shard's client somehow. The meaningful shard-local object that can help is the sstables_manager and there are three ways to make use of it. All deal with the fact that sstables_manager-s are not sharded<> services, but are owner by the database independently on each shard.
1. walk the client -> sst.manager -> database -> container -> database -> sst.manager -> client chain by keeping its first half on the handle and unrolling the second half to produce a file
2. keep sharded peering service referenced by the sstables_manager that's initialized in main and passed though the database constructor down to sstables_manager(s)
3. equip file_handle::to_file with the "context" argument and teach sstables foreign info opener to push sstables_manager down to s3 file ... somehow
This PR chooses the 2nd way and introduces the sstables::storage_manager main-local sharded peering service that maintains all the s3::clients. "While at it" the new manager gets the object_storage_config updating facilities from the database (it's overloaded even without it already). Later the manager will also be in charge of collecting and exporting S3 metrics. In order to limit the number of S3 connections it also needs a patch seastar http::client, there's PR already doing that, once (if) merged there'll come one more fix on top.
