While we keep ordinary hints in a directory parallel to the data directory,
we decided to keep the materialized view hints in a subdirectory of the data
directory, named "view_pending_updates". But during boot, we expect all
subdirectories of data/ to be keyspace names, and when we notice this one,
we print a warning:
WARN: database - Skipping undefined keyspace: view_pending_updates
This spurious warning annoyed users. But moreover, we could have bigger
problems if the user actually tries to create a keyspace with that name.
So in this patch, we move the view hints to a separate top-level directory,
which defaults to /var/lib/scylla/view_hints, but as usual can be configured.
