no problem
## Summary of changes
replaces boxstr with arcstr as it's cheaper to clone. mild perf
improvement.
probably should look into other smallstring optimsations tbh, they will
likely be even better. The longest endpoint name I was able to construct
is something like `ep-weathered-wildflower-12345678` which is 32 bytes.
Most string optimisations top out at 23 bytes
## Problem
Proxy doesn't accept wake_compute responses with the allowed IPs.
## Summary of changes
Extend wake_compute api to be able to return allowed_ips.
This patch adds a timed LRU cache implementation and a compute node info cache on top of that.
Cache entries might expire on their own (default ttl=5mins) or become invalid due to real-world events,
e.g. compute node scale-to-zero event, so we add a connection retry loop with a wake-up call.
Solved problems:
- [x] Find a decent LRU implementation.
- [x] Implement timed LRU on top of that.
- [x] Cache results of `proxy_wake_compute` API call.
- [x] Don't invalidate newer cache entries for the same key.
- [x] Add cmdline configuration knobs (requires some refactoring).
- [x] Add failed connection estab metric.
- [x] Refactor auth backends to make things simpler (retries, cache
placement, etc).
- [x] Address review comments (add code comments + cleanup).
- [x] Retry `/proxy_wake_compute` if we couldn't connect to a compute
(e.g. stalled cache entry).
- [x] Add high-level description for `TimedLru`.
TODOs (will be addressed later):
- [ ] Add cache metrics (hit, spurious hit, miss).
- [ ] Synchronize http requests across concurrent per-client tasks
(https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/3331#issuecomment-1399216069).
- [ ] Cache results of `proxy_get_role_secret` API call.
