e94a5ce360 Rename pg_control_ffi.h to bindgen_deps.h, for clarity.
The pg_control_ffi.h name implies that it only includes stuff related to
pg_control.h. That's mostly true currently, but really the point of the
file is to include everything that we need to generate Rust definitions
from.

160e52ec7e Optimize branch creation (#2101)
Resolves #2054

**Context**: branch creation needs to wait for GC to acquire `gc_cs` lock, which prevents creating new timelines during GC. However, because individual timeline GC iteration also requires `compaction_cs` lock, branch creation may also need to wait for compactions of multiple timelines. This results in large latency when creating a new branch, which we advertised as *"instantly"*.

This PR optimizes the latency of branch creation by separating GC into two phases:
1. Collect GC data (branching points, cutoff LSNs, etc)
2. Perform GC for each timeline

The GC bottleneck comes from step 2, which must wait for compaction of multiple timelines. This PR modifies the branch creation and GC functions to allow GC to hold the GC lock only in step 1. As a result, branch creation doesn't need to wait for compaction to finish but only needs to wait for GC data collection step, which is fast.
