The sharding service didn't have support for S3 disaster recovery.
This PR adds a new endpoint to the attachment service, which is slightly
different from the endpoint on the pageserver, in that it takes the
shard count history of the tenant as json parameters: we need to do
time travel recovery for both the shard count at the target time and the
shard count at the current moment in time, as well as the past shard
counts that either still reference.

This PR introduces a new vectored implementation of the read path.
The search is basically a DFS if you squint at it long enough.
LayerFringe tracks the next layers to visit and acts as our stack.
Vertices are tuples of (layer, keyspace, lsn range). Continuously
pop the top of the stack (most recent layer) and do all the reads
for one layer at once.
The search maintains a fringe (`LayerFringe`) which tracks all the
layers that intersect the current keyspace being searched. Continuously
pop the top of the fringe (layer with highest LSN) and get all the data
required from the layer in one go.
Said search is done on one timeline at a time. If data is still required for
some keys, then search the ancestor timeline.
Apart from the high level layer traversal, vectored variants have been
introduced for grabbing data from each layer type. They still suffer from
read amplification issues and that will be addressed in a different PR.
You might notice that in some places we duplicate the code for the
existing read path. All of that code will be removed when we switch
the non-vectored read path to proxy into the vectored read path.
In the meantime, we'll have to contend with the extra cruft for the sake
of testing and gentle releasing.
## Problem
Timeline creation is meant to be very fast: it should only take
approximately on S3 PUT latency. When we have many shards in a tenant,
we should preserve that responsiveness.
## Summary of changes
- Issue create/delete pageserver API calls concurrently across all >0
shards
- During tenant deletion, delete shard zero last, separately, to avoid
confusing anything using GETs on the timeline.
- Return 201 instead of 200 on creations to make cloud control plane
happy

## Problem
Sharded tenants would sometimes try to write empty image layers during
compaction: this was more noticeable on larger databases.
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6755
**Note to reviewers: the last commit is a refactor that de-intents a
whole block, I recommend reviewing the earlier commits one by one to see
the real changes**
## Summary of changes
- Fix a case where when we drop a key during compaction, we might fail
to write out keys (this was broken when vectored get was added)
- If an image layer is empty, then do not try and write it out, but
leave `start` where it is so that if the subsequent key range meets
criteria for writing an image layer, we will extend its key range to
cover the empty area.
- Add a compaction test that configures small layers and compaction
thresholds, and asserts that we really successfully did image layer
generation. This fails before the fix.
## Problem
The ShardCount type has a magic '0' value that represents a legacy
single-sharded tenant, whose TenantShardId is formatted without a
`-0001` suffix (i.e. formatted as a traditional TenantId).
This was error-prone in code locations that wanted the actual number of
shards: they had to handle the 0 case specially.
## Summary of changes
- Make the internal value of ShardCount private, and expose `count()`
and `literal()` getters so that callers have to explicitly say whether
they want the literal value (e.g. for storing in a TenantShardId), or
the actual number of shards in the tenant.

There is O(n^2) issues due to how we store these directories (#6626), so
it's good to keep an eye on them and ensure the numbers stay low.
The new per-timeline metric `pageserver_directory_entries_count`
isn't perfect, namely we don't calculate it every time we attach
the timeline, but only if there is an actual change.
Also, it is a collective metric over multiple scalars. Lastly,
we only emit the metric if it is above a certain threshold.
However, the metric still give a feel for the general size of the timeline.
We care less for small values as the metric is mainly there to
detect and track tenants with large directory counts.
We also expose the directory counts in `TimelineInfo` so that one can
get the detailed size distribution directly via the pageserver's API.
Related: #6642 , https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/10273
## Problem
One doesn't know at tenant creation time how large the tenant will grow.
We need to be able to dynamically adjust the shard count at runtime.
This is implemented as "splitting" of shards into smaller child shards,
which cover a subset of the keyspace that the parent covered.
Refer to RFC: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6358
Part of epic: #6278
## Summary of changes
This PR implements the happy path (does not cleanly recover from a crash
mid-split, although won't lose any data), without any optimizations
(e.g. child shards re-download their own copies of layers that the
parent shard already had on local disk)
- Add `/v1/tenant/:tenant_shard_id/shard_split` API to pageserver: this
copies the shard's index to the child shards' paths, instantiates child
`Tenant` object, and tears down parent `Tenant` object.
- Add `splitting` column to `tenant_shards` table. This is written into
an existing migration because we haven't deployed yet, so don't need to
cleanly upgrade.
- Add `/control/v1/tenant/:tenant_id/shard_split` API to
attachment_service,
- Add `test_sharding_split_smoke` test. This covers the happy path:
future PRs will add tests that exercise failure cases.
This PR adds an API to live-reconfigure the VirtualFile io engine.
It also adds a flag to `pagebench get-page-latest-lsn`, which is where I
found this functionality to be useful: it helps compare the io engines
in a benchmark without re-compiling a release build, which took ~50s on
the i3en.3xlarge where I was doing the benchmark.
Switching the IO engine is completely safe at runtime.
- log when we start walredo process
- include tenant shard id in walredo argv
- dump some basic walredo state in tenant details api
- more suitable walredo process launch histogram buckets
- avoid duplicate tracing labels in walredo launch spans
This commit adds a function to `KeySpace` which updates a key key space
by removing all overlaps with a second key space. This can involve
splitting or removing of existing ranges.
The implementation is not particularly efficient: O(M * N * log(N))
where N is the number of ranges in the current key space and M is the
number of ranges in the key space we are checking against. In practice,
this shouldn't matter much since, in the short term, the only caller of
this function will be the vectored read path and the number of key
spaces invovled will be small. This follows from the upper bound placed
on the number of keys accepted by the vectored read path.
A couple other small utility functions are added. They'll be used by the
vectored search path as well.

## Problem
The sharding service will be used as a "virtual pageserver" by the
control plane -- so it needs the set of pageserver APIs that the control
plane uses, and to present them under identical URLs, including prefix
(/v1).
## Summary of changes
- Add missing APIs:
- Tenant deletion
- Timeline deletion
- Node list (used in test now, later in tools)
- `/location_config` API (for migrating tenants into the sharding
service)
- Rework attachment service URLs:
- `/v1` prefix is used for pageserver-compatible APIs
- `/upcall/v1` prefix is used for APIs that are called by the pageserver
(re-attach and validate)
- `/debug/v1` prefix is used for endpoints that are for testing
- `/control/v1` prefix is used for new sharding service APIs that do not
mimic a pageserver API, such as registering and configuring nodes.
- Add test_sharding_service. The sharding service already had some
collateral coverage from its use in general tests, but this is the first
dedicated testing for it.
1. Introduce a naive `Timeline::get_vectored` implementation
The return type is intended to be flexible enough for various types of
callers. We return the pages in a map keyed by `Key` such that the
caller doesn't have to map back to the key if it needs to know it. Some
callers can ignore errors
for specific pages, so we return a separate `Result<Bytes,
PageReconstructError>` for each page and an overarching
`GetVectoredError` for API misuse. The overhead of the mapping will be
small and bounded since we enforce a maximum key count for the
operation.
2. Use the `get_vectored` API for SLRU segment reconstruction and image
layer creation.
The idea is to achieve separation between keyspace layout definition
and operating on said keyspace. I've inlined all these function since
they're small and we don't use LTO in the storage release builds
at the moment.
Closes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6347
## Problem
To test sharding, we need something to control it. We could write python
code for doing this from the test runner, but this wouldn't be usable
with neon_local run directly, and when we want to write tests with large
number of shards/tenants, Rust is a better fit efficiently handling all
the required state.
This service enables automated tests to easily get a system with
sharding/HA without the test itself having to set this all up by hand:
existing tests can be run against sharded tenants just by setting a
shard count when creating the tenant.
## Summary of changes
Attachment service was previously a map of TenantId->TenantState, where
the principal state stored for each tenant was the generation and the
last attached pageserver. This enabled it to serve the re-attach and
validate requests that the pageserver requires.
In this PR, the scope of the service is extended substantially to do
overall management of tenants in the pageserver, including
tenant/timeline creation, live migration, evacuation of offline
pageservers etc. This is done using synchronous code to make declarative
changes to the tenant's intended state (`TenantState.policy` and
`TenantState.intent`), which are then translated into calls into the
pageserver by the `Reconciler`.
Top level summary of modules within
`control_plane/attachment_service/src`:
- `tenant_state`: structure that represents one tenant shard.
- `service`: implements the main high level such as tenant/timeline
creation, marking a node offline, etc.
- `scheduler`: for operations that need to pick a pageserver for a
tenant, construct a scheduler and call into it.
- `compute_hook`: receive notifications when a tenant shard is attached
somewhere new. Once we have locations for all the shards in a tenant,
emit an update to postgres configuration via the neon_local `LocalEnv`.
- `http`: HTTP stubs. These mostly map to methods on `Service`, but are
separated for readability and so that it'll be easier to adapt if/when
we switch to another RPC layer.
- `node`: structure that describes a pageserver node. The most important
attribute of a node is its availability: marking a node offline causes
tenant shards to reschedule away from it.
This PR is a precursor to implementing the full sharding service for
prod (#6342). What's the difference between this and a production-ready
controller for pageservers?
- JSON file persistence to be replaced with a database
- Limited observability.
- No concurrency limits. Marking a pageserver offline will try and
migrate every tenant to a new pageserver concurrently, even if there are
thousands.
- Very simple scheduler that only knows to pick the pageserver with
fewest tenants, and place secondary locations on a different pageserver
than attached locations: it does not try to place shards for the same
tenant on different pageservers. This matters little in tests, because
picking the least-used pageserver usually results in round-robin
placement.
- Scheduler state is rebuilt exhaustively for each operation that
requires a scheduler.
- Relies on neon_local mechanisms for updating postgres: in production
this would be something that flows through the real control plane.

## Problem
The `/v1/tenant` listing API only applies to attached tenants.
For an external service to implement a global reconciliation of its list
of shards vs. what's on the pageserver, we need a full view of what's in
TenantManager, including secondary tenant locations, and InProgress
locations.
Dependency of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6251
## Summary of changes
- Add methods to Tenant and SecondaryTenant to reconstruct the
LocationConf used to create them.
- Add `GET /v1/location_config` API
## Problem
In #5980 the page service connection handler gets a simple piece of
logic for finding the right Timeline: at connection time, it picks an
arbitrary Timeline, and then when handling individual page requests it
checks if the original timeline is the correct shard, and if not looks
one up.
This is pretty slow in the case where we have to go look up the other
timeline, because we take the big tenants manager lock.
## Summary of changes
- Add a `shard_timelines` map of ShardIndex to Timeline on the page
service connection handler
- When looking up a Timeline for a particular ShardIndex, consult
`shard_timelines` to avoid hitting the TenantsManager unless we really
need to.
- Re-work the CancellationToken handling, because the handler now holds
gateguards on multiple timelines, and so must respect cancellation of
_any_ timeline it has in its cache, not just the timeline related to the
request it is currently servicing.

The theme of the changes in this PR is that they're enablers for #6251
which are superficial struct/api changes.
This is a spinoff from #6251:
- Various APIs + clients thereof take TenantShardId rather than TenantId
- The creation API gets a ShardParameters member, which may be used to
configure shard count and stripe size. This enables the attachment
service to present a "virtual pageserver" creation endpoint that creates
multiple shards.
- The attachment service will use tenant size information to drive shard
splitting. Make a version of `TenantHistorySize` that is usable for
decoding these API responses.
- ComputeSpec includes a shard stripe size.
Generally useful when debugging / troubleshooting.
I found this useful when manually duplicating a tenant from a script[^1]
where I can't use `neon_fixtures.Pageserver.tenant_attach`'s automatic
integration with the neon_local's attachment_service.
[^1]: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6349
PR #6266 broke the getpage_latest_lsn benchmark.
Before this patch, we'd fail with
```
not implemented: split up range
```
because `r.start = rel size key` and `r.end = rel size key + 1`.
The filtering of the key ranges in that loop is a bit ugly, but,
I measured:
* setup with 180k layer files (20k tenants * 9 layers).
* total physical size is 463GiB
* 5k tenants, the range filtering takes `0.6 seconds` on an
i3en.3xlarge.
That's a tiny fraction of the overall time it takes for pagebench to get
ready to send requests. So, this is good enough for now / there are
other bottlenecks that are bigger.
Before this PR, `is_rel_block_key` returns true for the blknum
`0xffffffff`,
which is a blknum that's actually never written by Postgres, but used by
Neon Pageserver to store the relsize.
Quoting @MMeent:
> PostgreSQL can't extend the relation beyond size of 0xFFFFFFFF blocks,
> so block number 0xFFFFFFFE is the last valid block number.
This PR changes the definition of the function to exclude blknum
0xffffffff.
My motivation for doing this change is to fix the `pagebench` getpage
benchmark, which uses `is_rel_block_key` to filter the keyspace for
valid pages to request from page_service.
fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6210
I checked other users of the function.
The first one is `key_is_shard0`, which already had added an exemption
for 0xffffffff. So, there's no functional change with this PR.
The second one is `DatadirModification::flush`[^1]. With this PR,
`.flush()` will skip the relsize key, whereas it didn't
before. This means we will pile up all the relsize key-value pairs
`(Key,u32)`
in `DatadirModification::pending_updates` until `.commit()` is called.
The only place I can think of where that would be a problem is if we
import from a full basebackup, and don't `.commit()` regularly,
like we currently don't do in `import_basebackup_from_tar`.
It exposes us to input-controlled allocations.
However, that was already the case for the other keys that are skipped,
so, one can argue that this change is not making the situation much
worse.
[^1]: That type's `flush()` and `commit()` methods are terribly named,
but,
that's for another time
This PR adds a component-level benchmarking utility for pageserver.
Its name is `pagebench`.
The problem solved by `pagebench` is that we want to put Pageserver
under high load.
This isn't easily achieved with `pgbench` because it needs to go through
a compute, which has signficant performance overhead compared to
accessing Pageserver directly.
Further, compute has its own performance optimizations (most
importantly: caches). Instead of designing a compute-facing workload
that defeats those internal optimizations, `pagebench` simply bypasses
them by accessing pageserver directly.
Supported benchmarks:
* getpage@latest_lsn
* basebackup
* triggering logical size calculation
This code has no automated users yet.
A performance regression test for getpage@latest_lsn will be added in a
later PR.

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.
Part of getpage@lsn benchmark epic:
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5771
This allows getting the list of tenants and timelines without triggering
initial logical size calculation by requesting the timeline details API
response, which would skew our results.
Dependency (commits inline):
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5842
## Problem
Secondary mode tenants need a manifest of what to download. Ultimately
this will be some kind of heat-scored set of layers, but as a robust
first step we will simply use the set of resident layers: secondary
tenant locations will aim to match the on-disk content of the attached
location.
## Summary of changes
- Add heatmap types representing the remote structure
- Add hooks to Tenant/Timeline for generating these heatmaps
- Create a new `HeatmapUploader` type that is external to `Tenant`, and
responsible for walking the list of attached tenants and scheduling
heatmap uploads.
Notes to reviewers:
- Putting the logic for uploads (and later, secondary mode downloads)
outside of `Tenant` is an opinionated choice, motivated by:
- Enable future smarter scheduling of operations, e.g. uploading the
stalest tenant first, rather than having all tenants compete for a fair
semaphore on a first-come-first-served basis. Similarly for downloads,
we may wish to schedule the tenants with the hottest un-downloaded
layers first.
- Enable accessing upload-related state without synchronization (it
belongs to HeatmapUploader, rather than being some Mutex<>'d part of
Tenant)
- Avoid further expanding the scope of Tenant/Timeline types, which are
already among the largest in the codebase
- You might reasonably wonder how much of the uploader code could be a
generic job manager thing. Probably some of it: but let's defer pulling
that out until we have at least two users (perhaps secondary downloads
will be the second one) to highlight which bits are really generic.
Compromises:
- Later, instead of using digests of heatmaps to decide whether anything
changed, I would prefer to avoid walking the layers in tenants that
don't have changes: tracking that will be a bit invasive, as it needs
input from both remote_timeline_client and Layer.
## Problem
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5957, the most essential
types were updated to use TenantShardId rather than TenantId. That
unblocked other work, but didn't fully enable running multiple shards
from the same tenant on the same pageserver.
## Summary of changes
- Use TenantShardId in page cache key for materialized pages
- Update mgr.rs get_tenant() and list_tenants() functions to use a shard
id, and update all callers.
- Eliminate the exactly_one_or_none helper in mgr.rs and all code that
used it
- Convert timeline HTTP routes to use tenant_shard_id
Note on page cache:
```
struct MaterializedPageHashKey {
/// Why is this TenantShardId rather than TenantId?
///
/// Usually, the materialized value of a page@lsn is identical on any shard in the same tenant. However, this
/// this not the case for certain internally-generated pages (e.g. relation sizes). In future, we may make this
/// key smaller by omitting the shard, if we ensure that reads to such pages always skip the cache, or are
/// special-cased in some other way.
tenant_shard_id: TenantShardId,
timeline_id: TimelineId,
key: Key,
}
```
## Problem
Currently, if one creates many shards they will all ingest all the data:
not much use! We want them to ingest a proportional share of the data
each.
Closes: #6025
## Summary of changes
- WalIngest object gets a copy of the ShardIdentity for the Tenant it
was created by.
- While iterating the `blocks` part of a decoded record, blocks that do
not match the current shard are ignored, apart from on shard zero where
they are used to update relation sizes in `observe_decoded_block` (but
not stored).
- Before committing a `DataDirModificiation` from a WAL record, we check
if it's empty, and drop the record if so. This check is necessary
(rather than just looking at the `blocks` part) because certain record
types may modify blocks in non-obvious ways (e.g.
`ingest_heapam_record`).
- Add WAL ingest metrics to record the total received, total committed,
and total filtered out
- Behaviour for unsharded tenants is unchanged: they will continue to
ingest all blocks, and will take the fast path through `is_key_local`
that doesn't bother calculating any hashes.
After this change, shards store a subset of the tenant's total data, and
accurate relation sizes are only maintained on shard zero.

## 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.
to_string forces allocating a less than pointer sized string (costing on
stack 4 usize), using a Display formattable slug saves that. the
difference seems small, but at the same time, we log these a lot.
## Problem
When a pageserver receives a page service request identified by
TenantId, it must decide which `Tenant` object to route it to.
As in earlier PRs, this stuff is all a no-op for tenants with a single
shard: calls to `is_key_local` always return true without doing any
hashing on a single-shard ShardIdentity.
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6026
## Summary of changes
- Carry immutable `ShardIdentity` objects in Tenant and Timeline. These
provide the information that Tenants/Timelines need to figure out which
shard is responsible for which Key.
- Augment `get_active_tenant_with_timeout` to take a `ShardSelector`
specifying how the shard should be resolved for this tenant. This mode
depends on the kind of request (e.g. basebackups always go to shard
zero).
- In `handle_get_page_at_lsn_request`, handle the case where the
Timeline we looked up at connection time is not the correct shard for
the page being requested. This can happen whenever one node holds
multiple shards for the same tenant. This is currently written as a
"slow path" with the optimistic expectation that usually we'll run with
one shard per pageserver, and the Timeline resolved at connection time
will be the one serving page requests. There is scope for optimization
here later, to avoid doing the full shard lookup for each page.
- Omit consumption metrics from nonzero shards: only the 0th shard is
responsible for tracing accurate relation sizes.
Note to reviewers:
- Testing of these changes is happening separately on the
`jcsp/sharding-pt1` branch, where we have hacked neon_local etc needed
to run a test_pg_regress.
- The main caveat to this implementation is that page service
connections still look up one Timeline when the connection is opened,
before they know which pages are going to be read. If there is one shard
per pageserver then this will always also be the Timeline that serves
page requests. However, if multiple shards are on one pageserver then
get page requests will incur the cost of looking up the correct Timeline
on each getpage request. We may look to improve this in future with a
"sticky" timeline per connection handler so that subsequent requests for
the same Timeline don't have to look up again, and/or by having postgres
pass a shard hint when connecting. This is tracked in the "Loose ends"
section of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5507
I would love to not expose the in-accurate value int he mgmt API at all,
and in fact control plane doesn't use it [^1].
But our tests do, and I have no desire to change them at this time.

This PR adds an `existing_initdb_timeline_id` option to timeline
creation APIs, taking an optional timeline ID.
Follow-up of #5390.
If the `existing_initdb_timeline_id` option is specified via the HTTP
API, the pageserver downloads the existing initdb archive from the given
timeline ID and extracts it, instead of running initdb itself.

## Problem
To accommodate multiple shards in the same tenant on the same
pageserver, we must include the full TenantShardId in local paths. That
means that all code touching local storage needs to see the
TenantShardId.
## Summary of changes
- Replace `tenant_id: TenantId` with `tenant_shard_id: TenantShardId` on
Tenant, Timeline and RemoteTimelineClient.
- Use TenantShardId in helpers for building local paths.
- Update all the relevant call sites.
This doesn't update absolutely everything: things like PageCache,
TaskMgr, WalRedo are still shard-naive. The purpose of this PR is to
update the core types so that others code can be added/updated
incrementally without churning the most central shared types.
## Problem
The TenantShardId in API URLs is sufficient to uniquely identify a
tenant shard, but not for it to function: it also needs to know its full
sharding configuration (stripe size, layout version) in order to map
keys to shards.
## Summary of changes
- Introduce ShardIdentity: this is the superset of ShardIndex (#5924 )
that is required for translating keys to shard numbers.
- Include ShardIdentity as an optional attribute of LocationConf
- Extend the public `LocationConfig` API structure with a flat
representation of shard attributes.
The net result is that at the point we construct a `Tenant`, we have a
`ShardIdentity` (inside LocationConf). This enables the next steps to
actually use the ShardIdentity to split WAL and validate that page
service requires are reaching the correct shard.
## Problem
For sharded tenants, the layer keys must include the shard number and
shard count, to disambiguate keys written by different shards in the
same tenant (shard number), and disambiguate layers written before and
after splits (shard count).
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5924
## Summary of changes
There are no functional changes in this PR: everything behaves the same
for the default ShardIndex::unsharded() value. Actual construct of
sharded tenants will come next.
- Add a ShardIndex type: this is just a wrapper for a ShardCount and
ShardNumber. This is a subset of ShardIdentity: whereas ShardIdentity
contains enough information to filter page keys, ShardIndex contains
just enough information to construct a remote key. ShardIndex has a
compact encoding, the same as the shard part of TenantShardId.
- Store the ShardIndex as part of IndexLayerMetadata, if it is set to a
different value than ShardIndex::unsharded.
- Update RemoteTimelineClient and DeletionQueue to construct paths using
the layer metadata. Deletion code paths that previously just passed a
`Generation` now pass a full `LayerFileMetadata` to capture the shard as
well.
Notes to reviewers:
- In deletion code paths, I could have used a (Generation, ShardIndex)
instead of the full LayerFileMetadata. I opted for the full object
partly for brevity, and partly because in future when we add checksums
the deletion code really will care about the full metadata in order to
validate that it is deleting what was intended.
- While ShardIdentity and TenantShardId could both use a ShardIndex, I
find that they read more cleanly as "flat" structs that spell out the
shard count and number field separately. Serialization code would need
writing out by hand anyway, because TenantShardId's serialized form is
not a serde struct-style serialization.
- ShardIndex doesn't _have_ to exist (we could use ShardIdentity
everywhere), but it is a worthwhile optimization, as we will have many
copies of this as part of layer metadata. In future the size difference
betweedn ShardIndex and ShardIdentity may become larger if we implement
more sophisticated key distribution mechanisms (i.e. new values of
ShardIdentity::layout).

## Problem
When using TenantId as the key, we are unable to handle multiple tenant
shards attached to the same pageserver for the same tenant ID. This is
an expected scenario if we have e.g. 8 shards and 5 pageservers.
## Summary of changes
- TenantsMap is now a BTreeMap instead of a HashMap: this enables
looking up by range. In future, we will need this for page_service, as
incoming requests will just specify the Key, and we'll have to figure
out which shard to route it to.
- A new key type TenantShardId is introduced, to act as the key in
TenantsMap, and as the id type in external APIs. Its human readable
serialization is backward compatible with TenantId, and also
forward-compatible as long as sharding is not actually used (when we
construct a TenantShardId with ShardCount(0), it serializes to an
old-fashioned TenantId).
- Essential tenant APIs are updated to accept TenantShardIds:
tenant/timeline create, tenant delete, and /location_conf. These are the
APIs that will enable driving sharded tenants. Other apis like /attach
/detach /load /ignore will not work with sharding: those will soon be
deprecated and replaced with /location_conf as part of the live
migration work.
Closes: #5787
Improve the serde impl for several types (`Lsn`, `TenantId`,
`TimelineId`) by making them sensitive to
`Serializer::is_human_readadable` (true for json, false for bincode).
Fixes#3511 by:
- Implement the custom serde for `Lsn`
- Implement the custom serde for `Id`
- Add the helper module `serde_as_u64` in `libs/utils/src/lsn.rs`
- Remove the unnecessary attr `#[serde_as(as = "DisplayFromStr")]` in
all possible structs
Additionally some safekeeper types gained serde tests.

## Problem
The pageserver had two ways of loading a tenant:
- `spawn_load` would trust on-disk content to reflect all existing
timelines
- `spawn_attach` would list timelines in remote storage.
It was incorrect for `spawn_load` to trust local disk content, because
it doesn't know if the tenant might have been attached and written
somewhere else. To make this correct would requires some generation
number checks, but the payoff is to avoid one S3 op per tenant at
startup, so it's not worth the complexity -- it is much simpler to have
one way to load a tenant.
## Summary of changes
- `Tenant` objects are always created with `Tenant::spawn`: there is no
more distinction between "load" and "attach".
- The ability to run without remote storage (for `neon_local`) is
preserved by adding a branch inside `attach` that uses a fallback
`load_local` if no remote_storage is present.
- Fix attaching a tenant when it has a timeline with no IndexPart: this
can occur if a newly created timeline manages to upload a layer before
it has uploaded an index.
- The attach marker file that used to indicate whether a tenant should
be "loaded" or "attached" is no longer needed, and is removed.
- The GenericRemoteStorage interface gets a `list()` method that maps
more directly to what ListObjects does, returning both keys and common
prefixes. The existing `list_files` and `list_prefixes` methods are just
calls into `list()` now -- these can be removed later if we would like
to shrink the interface a bit.
- The remote deletion marker is moved into `timelines/` and detected as
part of listing timelines rather than as a separate GET request. If any
existing tenants have a marker in the old location (unlikely, only
happens if something crashes mid-delete), then they will rely on the
control plane retrying to complete their deletion.
- Revise S3 calls for timeline listing and tenant load to take a
cancellation token, and retry forever: it never makes sense to make a
Tenant broken because of a transient S3 issue.
## Breaking changes
- The remote deletion marker is moved from `deleted` to
`timelines/deleted` within the tenant prefix. Markers in the old
location will be ignored: it is the control plane's responsibility to
retry deletions until they succeed. Markers in the new location will be
tolerated by the previous release of pageserver via
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5632
- The local `attaching` marker file is no longer written. Therefore, if
the pageserver is downgraded after running this code, the old pageserver
will not be able to distinguish between partially attached tenants and
fully attached tenants. This would only impact tenants that were partway
through attaching at the moment of downgrade. In the unlikely even t
that we do experience an incident that prompts us to roll back, then we
may check for attach operations in flight, and manually insert
`attaching` marker files as needed.
