Piotr Sarna 0e0282cdf1 Merge ' cdc: move (most of) CDC generation management to a new service' from Kamil Braun
Currently all management of CDC generations happens in storage_service,
which is a big ball of mud that does many unrelated things.

This PR introduces a new service crafted to handle CDC generation
management: listening and reacting to generation changes in the cluster.

We plug the service in, initializing it in main and test code,
passing a reference to storage_service and having storage_service call
the service (using the `after_join` method): the service only starts
doing its job after the node joins the token ring (either on bootstrap
or restart).

Some parts of generation management still remain in storage_service:
the bootstrap procedure, which happens inside storage_service,
must also do some initialization regarding CDC generations,
for example: on restart it must retrieve the latest known generation
timestamp from disk; on bootstrap it must create a new generation
and announce it to other nodes. The order of these operations w.r.t
the rest of the startup procedure is important, hence the startup
procedure is the only right place for them. We may try decoupling
these services even more in follow-up PRs, but that requires a bit
of careful reasoning. What this PR does is a low-hanging fruit.

Still, what remains in storage_service is a small part of the entire
CDC generation management logic; most of it has been moved to the
new service. This includes listening for generation changes and
updating the data structures for performing CDC log writes (cdc::metadata).
Furthermore these handling functions now return futures (and are internally
coroutines), where previously they required a seastar::async context.

This PR is a prerequisite to fixing #7985. The fact that all the CDC generation
management code was in storage_service is technical debt. It will be easier
to modify the management algorithms when they sit in their own module.

Tests: unit (dev) and cdc_tests.py dtest (dev), and local replication test using scylla-cdc-java

Closes #8172
