Piotr Sarna ecd122a1b0 Merge 'alternator: rudimentary implementation of TTL expiration service' from Nadav Har'El
In this patch series we add an implementation of an
expiration service to Alternator, which periodically scans the data in
the table, looking for expired items and deleting them.

We also continue to improve the TTL test suite to cover additional
corner cases discovered during the development of the code.

This implementation is good enough to make all existing tests but one,
plus a few new ones, pass, but is still a very partial and inefficient
implementation littered with FIXMEs throughout the code. Among other
things, this initial implementation doesn't do anything reasonable about pacing of
the scan or about multiple tables, it scans entire items instead of only the
needed parts, and because each shard "owns" a different subset of the
token ranges, if a node goes down, partitions which it "owns" will not
get expired.

The current tests cannot expose these problems, so we will need to develop
additional tests for them.

Because this implementation is very partial, the Alternator TTL continues
to remain "experimental", cannot be used without explicitly enabling this
experimental feature, and must not be used for any important deployment.

Refs #5060 but doesn't close the issue (let's not close it until we have a
reasonably complete implementation - not this partial one).

Closes #9624
