I want to fix bugs in `page_service`
([issue](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/7427)) and the
`import basebackup` / `import wal` stand in the way / make the
refactoring more complicated.
We don't use these methods anyway in practice, but, there have been some
objections to removing the functionality completely.
So, this PR preserves the existing functionality but moves it into the
HTTP management API.
Note that I don't try to fix existing bugs in the code, specifically not
fixing
* it only ever worked correctly for unsharded tenants
* it doesn't clean up on error
All errors are mapped to `ApiError::InternalServerError`.
## Problem
Pageserver restarts cause read availablity downtime for tenants. See
`Motivation` section in the
[RFC](https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7704).
## Summary of changes
* Introduce a new `NodeSchedulingPolicy`: `PauseForRestart`
* Implement the first take of drain and fill algorithms
* Add a node status endpoint which can be polled to figure out when an
operation is done
The implementation follows the RFC, so it might be useful to peek at it
as you're reviewing.
Since the PR is rather chunky, I've made sure all commits build (with
warnings), so you can
review by commit if you prefer that.

## Problem
A period of unavailability for all pageservers in a cluster produced the
following fallout in staging:
all tenants became detached and required manual operation to re-attach.
Manually restarting
the storage controller re-attached all tenants due to a consistency bug.
Turns out there are two related bugs which caused the issue:
1. Pageserver re-attach can be processed before the first heartbeat.
Hence, when handling
the availability delta produced by the heartbeater,
`Node::get_availability_transition` claims
that there's no need to reconfigure the node.
2. We would still attempt to reschedule tenant shards when handling
offline transitions even
if the entire cluster is down. This puts tenant shards into a state
where the reconciler believes
they have to be detached (no pageserver shows up in their intent state).
This is doubly wrong
because we don't mark the tenant shards as detached in the database,
thus causing memory vs
database consistency issues. Luckily, this bug allowed all tenant shards
to re-attach after restart.
## Summary of changes
* For (1), abuse the fact that re-attach requests do not contain an
utilisation score and use that
to differentiate from a node that replied to heartbeats.
* For (2), introduce a special case that skips any rescheduling if the
entire cluster is unavailable.
* Update the storage controller heartbeat test with an extra scenario
where the entire cluster goes
for lunch.
Fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8044
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.
