Instead of having a lot of separate fixtures for setting up the page
server, the compute nodes, the safekeepers etc., have one big ZenithEnv
object that encapsulates the whole environment. Every test either uses
a shared "zenith_simple_env" fixture, which contains the default setup
of a pageserver with no authentication, and no safekeepers. Tests that
want to use safekeepers or authentication set up a custom test-specific
ZenithEnv fixture.
Gathering information about the whole environment into one object makes
some things simpler. For example, when a new compute node is created,
you no longer need to pass the 'wal_acceptors' connection string as
argument to the 'postgres.create_start' function. The 'create_start'
function fetches that information directly from the ZenithEnv object.
* Fix bugs found by mypy
* Add some missing types and runtime checks, remove unused code
* Make ZenithPageserver start right away for better type safety
* Add `types-*` packages to Pipfile
* Pin mypy version and run it on CircleCI
* Add yapf run to CircleCI
* Pin yapf version
* Enable `SPLIT_ALL_TOP_LEVEL_COMMA_SEPARATED_VALUES` setting
* Reformat all existing code with slight manual adjustments
* test_runner/README: note that yapf is forced
Change 'zenith.signal' file to a human-readable format, similar to
backup_label. It can contain a "PREV LSN: %X/%X" line, or a special
value to indicate that it's OK to start with invalid LSN ('none'), or
that it's a read-only node and generating WAL is forbidden
('invalid').
The 'zenith pg create' and 'zenith pg start' commands now take a node
name parameter, separate from the branch name. If the node name is not
given, it defaults to the branch name, so this doesn't break existing
scripts.
If you pass "foo@<lsn>" as the branch name, a read-only node anchored
at that LSN is created. The anchoring is performed by setting the
'recovery_target_lsn' option in the postgresql.conf file, and putting
the server into standby mode with 'standby.signal'.
We no longer store the synthetic checkpoint record in the WAL segment.
The postgres startup code has been changed to use the copy of the
checkpoint record in the pg_control file, when starting in zenith
mode.
