This is a precursor to:
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6185
While that PR contains big changes to neon_local and attachment_service,
this PR contains a few unrelated standalone changes generated while
working on that branch:
- Fix restarting a pageserver when it contains multiple shards for the
same tenant
- When using location_config api to attach a tenant, create its
timelines dir
- Update test paths where generations were previously optional to make
them always-on: this avoids tests having to spuriously assert that
attachment_service is not None in order to make the linter happy.
- Add a TenantShardId python implementation for subsequent use in test
helpers that will be made shard-aware
- Teach scrubber to read across shards when checking for layer
existence: this is a refactor to track the list of existent layers at
tenant-level rather than locally to each timeline. This is a precursor
to testing shard splitting.
## Problem
Some existing tests are written in a way that's incompatible with tenant
generations.
## Summary of changes
Update all the tests that need updating: this is things like calling
through the NeonPageserver.tenant_attach helper to get a generation
number, instead of calling directly into the pageserver API. There are
various more subtle cases.
If there are too many L0 layers before compaction, the compaction
process becomes slow because of slow `Timeline::get`. As a result of the
slowdown, the pageserver will generate even more L0 layers for the next
iteration, further exacerbating the slow performance.
Change to perform L0 -> L1 compaction before creating new images. The
simple change speeds up compaction time and `Timeline::get` to 5x.
`Timeline::get` is faster on top of L1 layers.

Before this PR, it could happen that `load_layer_map` schedules removal
of the future
image layer. Then a later compaction run could re-create the same image
layer, scheduling a PUT.
Due to lack of an upload queue barrier, the PUT and DELETE could be
re-ordered.
The result was IndexPart referencing a non-existent object.
## Summary of changes
* Add support to `pagectl` / Python tests to decode `IndexPart`
* Rust
* new `pagectl` Subcommand
* `IndexPart::{from,to}_s3_bytes()` methods to internalize knowledge
about encoding of `IndexPart`
* Python
* new `NeonCli` subclass
* Add regression test
* Rust
* Ability to force repartitioning; required to ensure image layer
creation at last_record_lsn
* Python
* The regression test.
* Fix the issue
* Insert an `UploadOp::Barrier` after scheduling the deletions.
