Switch to the the CMake-ified Seastar

This change allows Scylla to be compiled against the `master` branch of
Seastar.

The necessary changes:

- Add `-Wno-error` to prevent a Seastar warning from terminating the
  build

- The new Seastar build system generates the pkg-config files (for
  example, `seastar.pc`) at configure time, so we don't need to invoke
  Ninja to generate them

- The `-march` argument is no longer inherited from Seastar (correctly),
  so it needs to be provided independently

- Define `SEASTAR_TESTING_MAIN` so that the definition of an entry
  point is included for all unit test compilation units

- Independently link Scylla against Seastar's compiled copy of fmt in
  its build directory

- All test files use the (now public) Seastar testing headers

- Add some missing Seastar headers to source files

Official toolchain for ScyllaDB

While we aim to build out-of-the-box on recent distributions, this isn't always possible and not everyone runs a recent distribution. For this reason a version-controlled toolchain is provided as a docker image.

Obtaining the current toolchain

The toolchain is stored in a file called tools/toolchain/image. To access the toolchain, pull that image:

docker pull $(<tools/toolchain/image)

A helper script dbuild allows you to run command in that toolchain with the working directory mounted:

./tools/toolchain/dbuild ./configure.py
./tools/toolchain/dbuild ninja

You can adjust the docker run command by adding more flags before the command to be executed, separating the flags and the command with --. This can be useful to attach more volumes (for data or ccache) and to set environment variables:

./tools/toolchain/dbuild -v /var/cache/ccache:/var/cache/ccache -- ninja

Building the toolchain

Run the command

docker build --no-cache -f tools/toolchain/Dockerfile .

and use the resulting image.

Publishing an image

If you're a maintainer, you can tag the image and push it using docker push. Tags follow the format scylladb/scylla-toolchain:fedora-29-[branch-3.0-]20181128. After the image is pushed, update tools/toolchain/image so new builds can use it automatically.

For master toolchains, the branch designation is omitted. In a branch, if there is a need to update a toolchain, the branch designation is added to the tag to avoid ambiguity.
