Tomasz Grabiec cdb1499898 Merge 'interval: reduce memory footprint' from Avi Kivity
The interval class's memory footprint isn't important for single objects,
but intervals are frequently held in moderately sized collections. In #3335 this
caused a stall. Therefore reducing interval's memory footprint and reduce
allocation pressure.

This series does this by consolidating badly-padded booleans in the object tree
spanned by interval into 5 booleans that are consecutive in memory. This
reduces the space required by these booleans from 40 bytes to 8 bytes.

A small improvement is observed in instructions_per_op. It could be random fluctuations in the compiler performance, or maybe the default constructor/destructor of interval are meaningful even in this simple test.

Small performance improvement, so not a backport candidate.

Closes scylladb/scylladb#24232

* github.com:scylladb/scylladb:
  interval: reduce sizeof
  interval: change start()/end() not to return references to data members
  interval: rename start_ref() back to start() (and end_ref() etc).
  interval: rename start() to start_ref() (and end() etc).
  test: wrapping_interval_test: add more tests for intervals

Scylla in-source tests.

For details on how to run the tests, see docs/dev/testing.md

Shared C++ utils, libraries are in lib/, for Python - pylib/

alternator - Python tests which connect to a single server and use the DynamoDB API unit, boost, raft - unit tests in C++ cqlpy - Python tests which connect to a single server and use CQL topology* - tests that set up clusters and add/remove nodes cql - approval tests that use CQL and pre-recorded output rest_api - tests for Scylla REST API Port 9000 scylla-gdb - tests for scylla-gdb.py helper script nodetool - tests for C++ implementation of nodetool

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).

To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then copy & edit its suite.ini.
