If the 'basebackup' command failed in the middle of building the tar
archive, the client would not report the error, but would attempt to
to start up postgres with the partial contents of the data directory.
That fails because the control file is missing (it's added to the
archive last, precisly to make sure that you cannot start postgres
from a partial archive). But the client doesn't see the proper error
message that caused the basebackup to fail in the server, which is
confusing.
Two issues conspired to cause that:
1. The tar::Builder object that we use in the pageserver to construct
the tar stream has a Drop handler that automatically writes a valid
end-of-archive marker on drop. Because of that, the resulting tarball
looks complete, even if an error happens while we're building it. The
pageserver does send an ErrorResponse after the seemingly-valid
tarball, but:
2. The client stops reading the Copy stream, as soon as it sees the
tar end-of-archive marker. Therefore, it doesn't read the
ErrorResponse that comes after it.
We have two clients that call 'basebackup', one in `control_plane`
used by the `neon_local` binary, and another one in
`compute_tools`. Both had the same issue.
This PR fixes both issues, even though fixing either one would be
enough to fix the problem at hand. The pageserver now doesn't send the
end-of-archive marker on error, and the client now reads the copy
stream to the end, even if it sees an end-of-archive marker.
Fixes github issue #1715
In the passing, change Basebackup to use generic Write rather than
'dyn'.

This adds a couple of control endpoints to simplify compute state
discovery for control-plane. For example, now we may figure out
that Postgres wasn't able to start or basebackup failed within
seconds instead of just blindly polling the compute readiness
for a minute or two.
Also we now expose startup metrics (time of the each step: basebackup,
sync safekeepers, config, total). Console grabs them after each
successful start and report as histogram to prometheus and grafana.
OpenAPI spec is added and up-tp date, but is not currently used in the
console yet.
workspace_hack is needed to avoid recompilation when different crates
inside the workspace depend on the same packages but with different
features being enabled. Problem occurs when you build crates separately
one by one. So this is irrelevant to our CI setup because there we build
all binaries at once, but it may be relevant for local development.
this also changes cargo's resolver version to 2
Currently it's included with minimal changes and lives aside of the main
workspace. Later we may re-use and combine common parts with zenith
control_plane.
This change is mostly needed to unify cloud deployment pipeline:
1.1. build compute-tools image
1.2. build compute-node image based on the freshly built compute-tools
2. build zenith image
So we can roll new compute image and new storage required by it to
operate properly. Also it becomes easier to test console against some
specific version of compute-node/-tools.
