## Problem
`black` is slow sometimes, we can replace it with `ruff format` (a new
feature in 0.1.2 [0]), which produces pretty similar to black style [1].
On my local machine (MacBook M1 Pro 16GB):
```
# `black` on main
$ hyperfine "BLACK_CACHE_DIR=/dev/null poetry run black ."
Benchmark 1: BLACK_CACHE_DIR=/dev/null poetry run black .
Time (mean ± σ): 3.131 s ± 0.090 s [User: 5.194 s, System: 0.859 s]
Range (min … max): 3.047 s … 3.354 s 10 runs
```
```
# `ruff format` on the current PR
$ hyperfine "RUFF_NO_CACHE=true poetry run ruff format"
Benchmark 1: RUFF_NO_CACHE=true poetry run ruff format
Time (mean ± σ): 300.7 ms ± 50.2 ms [User: 259.5 ms, System: 76.1 ms]
Range (min … max): 267.5 ms … 420.2 ms 10 runs
```
## Summary of changes
- Replace `black` with `ruff format` everywhere

## Problem
- `test_heavy_write_workload` is flaky, and fails because of to
statement timeout
- `test_wal_lagging` is flaky and fails because of the default pytest
timeout (see https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5305)
## Summary of changes
- `test_heavy_write_workload`: increase statement timeout to 5 minutes
(from default 2 minutes)
- `test_wal_lagging`: increase pytest timeout to 600s (from default
300s)
Fix `test_seqscans` by disabling statement timeout.
Also, replace increasing statement timeout with disabling it for
performance tests. This should make tests more stable and allow us to
observe performance degradation instead of test failures.
For better ergonomics. I always found it weird that we used UUID to
actually mean a tenant or timeline ID. It worked because it happened
to have the same length, 16 bytes, but it was hacky.
Resolves#1889.
This PR adds new tests to measure the WAL backpressure's performance under different workloads.
## Changes
- add new performance tests in `test_wal_backpressure.py`
- allow safekeeper's fsync to be configurable when running tests
