## Problem
Currently tenants are only split into multiple shards if a human being
calls the API to do it.
Issue: #7388
## Summary of changes
- Add a pageserver API for returning the top tenants by size
- Add a step to the controller's background loop where if there is no
reconciliation or optimization to be done, it looks for things to split.
- Add a test that runs pgbench on many tenants concurrently, and checks
that splitting happens as expected as tenants grow, without interrupting
the client I/O.
This PR is quite basic: there is a tasklist in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7388 for further work. This
PR is meant to be safe (off by default), and sufficient to enable our
staging environment to run lots of sharded tenants without a human
having to set them up.
This allows passing a humantime string in the CLI to configure the
initial wait for the database.
It defaults to the previously hard-coded value of 5 seconds.
## Problem
Storage controller memory can spike very high if we have many tenants
and they all try to reconcile at the same time.

will be in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7475
## Summary of changes
- Add a CLI arg `--reconciler-concurrency`, defaulted to 128
- Add a semaphore to Service with this many units
- In `maybe_reconcile_shard`, try to acquire semaphore unit. If we can't
get one, return a ReconcileWaiter for a future sequence number, and push
the TenantShardId onto a channel of delayed IDs.
- In `process_result`, consume from the channel of delayed IDs if there
are semaphore units available and call maybe_reconcile_shard again for
these delayed shards.
This has been tested in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7475,
but will land that PR separately because it contains other changes &
needs the test stabilizing. This change is worth merging sooner, because
it fixes a practical issue with larger shard counts.
## Problem
In some dev/test environments, there aren't health checks to guarantee
the database is available before starting the controller. This creates
friction for the developer.
## Summary of changes
- Wait up to 5 seconds for the database to become available on startup
## Problem
Some awkwardness in the measured API.
Missing process metrics.
## Summary of changes
Update measured to use the new convenience setup features.
Added measured-process lib.
Added measured support for libmetrics
The binary etc were renamed some time ago, but the path in the source
tree remained "attachment_service" to avoid disruption to ongoing PRs.
There aren't any big PRs out right now, so it's a good time to cut over.
- Rename `attachment_service` to `storage_controller`
- Move it to the top level for symmetry with `storage_broker` & to avoid
mixing the non-prod neon_local stuff (`control_plane/`) with the storage
controller which is a production component.
