Cancellation and timeouts are handled at remote_storage callsites, if
they are. However they should always be handled, because we've had
transient problems with remote storage connections.
- Add cancellation token to the `trait RemoteStorage` methods
- For `download*`, `list*` methods there is
`DownloadError::{Cancelled,Timeout}`
- For the rest now using `anyhow::Error`, it will have root cause
`remote_storage::TimeoutOrCancel::{Cancel,Timeout}`
- Both types have `::is_permanent` equivalent which should be passed to
`backoff::retry`
- New generic RemoteStorageConfig option `timeout`, defaults to 120s
- Start counting timeouts only after acquiring concurrency limiter
permit
- Cancellable permit acquiring
- Download stream timeout or cancellation is communicated via an
`std::io::Error`
- Exit backoff::retry by marking cancellation errors permanent

The solution we ended up for `backoff::retry` requires always cloning of
cancellation tokens even though there is just `.await`. Fix that, and
also turn the return type into `Option<Result<T, E>>` avoiding the need
for the `E::cancelled()` fn passed in.

## Problem
When enabled, this failpoint would busy-spin in a loop that emits log
messages.
## Summary of changes
Move the failpoint inside a backoff::exponential block: it will still
spam the log, but at much lower rate.

## Problem
The `Deleter` currently doesn't use a backoff::retry because it doesn't
need to: it is already inside a loop when doing the deletion, so can
just let the loop go around.
However, this is a problem for logging, because we log on errors, which
includes things like 503/429 cases that would usually be swallowed by a
backoff::retry in most places we use the RemoteStorage interface.
The underlying problem is that RemoteStorage doesn't have a proper error
type, and an anyhow::Error can't easily be interrogated for its original
S3 SdkError because downcast_ref requires a concrete type, but SdkError
is parametrized on response type.
## Summary of changes
Wrap remote deletions in Deleter in a backoff::retry to avoid logging
warnings on transient 429/503 conditions, and for symmetry with how
RemoteStorage is used in other places.
## Problem
Pageservers must not delete objects or advertise updates to
remote_consistent_lsn without checking that they hold the latest
generation for the tenant in question (see [the RFC](
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/blob/main/docs/rfcs/025-generation-numbers.md))
In this PR:
- A new "deletion queue" subsystem is introduced, through which
deletions flow
- `RemoteTimelineClient` is modified to send deletions through the
deletion queue:
- For GC & compaction, deletions flow through the full generation
verifying process
- For timeline deletions, deletions take a fast path that bypasses
generation verification
- The `last_uploaded_consistent_lsn` value in `UploadQueue` is replaced
with a mechanism that maintains a "projected" lsn (equivalent to the
previous property), and a "visible" LSN (which is the one that we may
share with safekeepers).
- Until `control_plane_api` is set, all deletions skip generation
validation
- Tests are introduced for the new functionality in
`test_pageserver_generations.py`
Once this lands, if a pageserver is configured with the
`control_plane_api` configuration added in
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5163, it becomes safe to
attach a tenant to multiple pageservers concurrently.
