This pull request adds the new basebackup read path + aux file write
path. In the regression test, all logical replication tests are run with
matrix aux_file_v2=false/true.
Also fixed the vectored get code path to correctly return missing key
error when being called from the unified sequential get code path.

Changing metadata format is not easy. This pull request adds a
tenant-level flag on whether to enable aux file v2. As long as we don't
roll this out to the user and guarantee our staging projects can persist
tenant config correctly, we can test the aux file v2 change with setting
this flag. Previous discussion at
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/7424.

## Problem
Part of the legacy (but current) compaction algorithm is to find a stack
of overlapping delta layers which will be turned
into an image layer. This operation is exponential in terms of the
number of matching layers and we do it roughly every 20 seconds.
## Summary of changes
Only check if a new image layer is required if we've ingested a certain
amount of WAL since the last check.
The amount of wal is expressed in terms of multiples of checkpoint
distance, with the intuition being that
that there's little point doing the check if we only have two new L1
layers (not enough to create a new image).
Not a user-facing change, but can break any existing `.neon` directories
created by neon_local, as the name of the database used by the storage
controller changes.
This PR changes all the locations apart from the path of
`control_plane/attachment_service` (waiting for an opportune moment to
do that one, because it's the most conflict-ish wrt ongoing PRs like
#6676 )
Extracted from https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6953
Part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5899
Core Change
-----------
In #6953, we need the ability to scan the log _after_ a specific line
and ignore anything before that line.
This PR changes `log_contains` to returns a tuple of `(matching line,
cursor)`.
Hand that cursor to a subsequent `log_contains` call to search the log
for the next occurrence of the pattern.
Other Changes
-------------
- Inspect all the callsites of `log_contains` to handle the new tuple
return type.
- Above inspection unveiled many callers aren't using `assert
log_contains(...) is not None` but some weaker version of the code that
breaks if `log_contains` ever returns a not-None but falsy value. Fix
that.
- Above changes unveiled that `test_remote_storage_upload_queue_retries`
was using `wait_until` incorrectly; after fixing the usage, I had to
raise the `wait_until` timeout. So, maybe this will fix its flakiness.
Rebased version of #5234, part of #6768
This consists of three parts:
1. A refactoring and new contract for implementing and testing
compaction.
The logic is now in a separate crate, with no dependency on the
'pageserver' crate. It defines an interface that the real pageserver
must implement, in order to call the compaction algorithm. The interface
models things like delta and image layers, but just the parts that the
compaction algorithm needs to make decisions. That makes it easier unit
test the algorithm and experiment with different implementations.
I did not convert the current code to the new abstraction, however. When
compaction algorithm is set to "Legacy", we just use the old code. It
might be worthwhile to convert the old code to the new abstraction, so
that we can compare the behavior of the new algorithm against the old
one, using the same simulated cases. If we do that, have to be careful
that the converted code really is equivalent to the old.
This inclues only trivial changes to the main pageserver code. All the
new code is behind a tenant config option. So this should be pretty safe
to merge, even if the new implementation is buggy, as long as we don't
enable it.
2. A new compaction algorithm, implemented using the new abstraction.
The new algorithm is tiered compaction. It is inspired by the PoC at PR
#4539, although I did not use that code directly, as I needed the new
implementation to fit the new abstraction. The algorithm here is less
advanced, I did not implement partial image layers, for example. I
wanted to keep it simple on purpose, so that as we add bells and
whistles, we can see the effects using the included simulator.
One difference to #4539 and your typical LSM tree implementations is how
we keep track of the LSM tree levels. This PR doesn't have a permanent
concept of a level, tier or sorted run at all. There are just delta and
image layers. However, when compaction starts, we look at the layers
that exist, and arrange them into levels, depending on their shapes.
That is ephemeral: when the compaction finishes, we forget that
information. This allows the new algorithm to work without any extra
bookkeeping. That makes it easier to transition from the old algorithm
to new, and back again.
There is just a new tenant config option to choose the compaction
algorithm. The default is "Legacy", meaning the current algorithm in
'main'. If you set it to "Tiered", the new algorithm is used.
3. A simulator, which implements the new abstraction.
The simulator can be used to analyze write and storage amplification,
without running a test with the full pageserver. It can also draw an SVG
animation of the simulation, to visualize how layers are created and
deleted.
To run the simulator:
cargo run --bin compaction-simulator run-suite

It's been dead-code-at-runtime for 9 months, let's remove it.
We can always re-introduce it at a later point.
Came across this while working on #6861, which will touch
`time_for_new_image_layer`. This is an opporunity to make that function
simpler.

## 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

This is a precursor to:
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/6185
While that PR contains big changes to neon_local and attachment_service,
this PR contains a few unrelated standalone changes generated while
working on that branch:
- Fix restarting a pageserver when it contains multiple shards for the
same tenant
- When using location_config api to attach a tenant, create its
timelines dir
- Update test paths where generations were previously optional to make
them always-on: this avoids tests having to spuriously assert that
attachment_service is not None in order to make the linter happy.
- Add a TenantShardId python implementation for subsequent use in test
helpers that will be made shard-aware
- Teach scrubber to read across shards when checking for layer
existence: this is a refactor to track the list of existent layers at
tenant-level rather than locally to each timeline. This is a precursor
to testing shard splitting.

## Problem
Secondary mode tenants need a manifest of what to download. Ultimately
this will be some kind of heat-scored set of layers, but as a robust
first step we will simply use the set of resident layers: secondary
tenant locations will aim to match the on-disk content of the attached
location.
## Summary of changes
- Add heatmap types representing the remote structure
- Add hooks to Tenant/Timeline for generating these heatmaps
- Create a new `HeatmapUploader` type that is external to `Tenant`, and
responsible for walking the list of attached tenants and scheduling
heatmap uploads.
Notes to reviewers:
- Putting the logic for uploads (and later, secondary mode downloads)
outside of `Tenant` is an opinionated choice, motivated by:
- Enable future smarter scheduling of operations, e.g. uploading the
stalest tenant first, rather than having all tenants compete for a fair
semaphore on a first-come-first-served basis. Similarly for downloads,
we may wish to schedule the tenants with the hottest un-downloaded
layers first.
- Enable accessing upload-related state without synchronization (it
belongs to HeatmapUploader, rather than being some Mutex<>'d part of
Tenant)
- Avoid further expanding the scope of Tenant/Timeline types, which are
already among the largest in the codebase
- You might reasonably wonder how much of the uploader code could be a
generic job manager thing. Probably some of it: but let's defer pulling
that out until we have at least two users (perhaps secondary downloads
will be the second one) to highlight which bits are really generic.
Compromises:
- Later, instead of using digests of heatmaps to decide whether anything
changed, I would prefer to avoid walking the layers in tenants that
don't have changes: tracking that will be a bit invasive, as it needs
input from both remote_timeline_client and Layer.
## Problem
Some existing tests are written in a way that's incompatible with tenant
generations.
## Summary of changes
Update all the tests that need updating: this is things like calling
through the NeonPageserver.tenant_attach helper to get a generation
number, instead of calling directly into the pageserver API. There are
various more subtle cases.
Implement a new `struct Layer` abstraction which manages downloadness
internally, requiring no LayerMap locking or rewriting to download or
evict providing a property "you have a layer, you can read it". The new
`struct Layer` provides ability to keep the file resident via a RAII
structure for new layers which still need to be uploaded. Previous
solution solved this `RemoteTimelineClient::wait_completion` which lead
to bugs like #5639. Evicting or the final local deletion after garbage
collection is done using Arc'd value `Drop`.
With a single `struct Layer` the closed open ended `trait Layer`, `trait
PersistentLayer` and `struct RemoteLayer` are removed following noting
that compaction could be simplified by simply not using any of the
traits in between: #4839.
The new `struct Layer` is a preliminary to remove
`Timeline::layer_removal_cs` documented in #4745.
Preliminaries: #4936, #4937, #5013, #5014, #5022, #5033, #5044, #5058,
#5059, #5061, #5074, #5103, epic #5172, #5645, #5649. Related split off:
#5057, #5134.
Remote storage cleanup split from #5198:
- pageserver, extensions, and safekeepers now have their separate remote
storage
- RemoteStorageKind has the configuration code
- S3Storage has the cleanup code
- with MOCK_S3, pageserver, extensions, safekeepers use different
buckets
- with LOCAL_FS, `repo_dir / "local_fs_remote_storage" / $user` is used
as path, where $user is `pageserver`, `safekeeper`
- no more `NeonEnvBuilder.enable_xxx_remote_storage` but one
`enable_{pageserver,extensions,safekeeper}_remote_storage`
Should not have any real changes. These will allow us to default to
`LOCAL_FS` for pageserver on the next PR, remove
`RemoteStorageKind.NOOP`, work towards #5172.

## Problem
Tests using remote storage have manually entered `test_name` parameters,
which:
- Are easy to accidentally duplicate when copying code to make a new
test
- Omit parameters, so don't actually create unique S3 buckets when
running many tests concurrently.
## Summary of changes
- Use the `request` fixture in neon_env_builder fixture to get the test
name, then munge that into an S3 compatible bucket name.
- Remove the explicit `test_name` parameters to enable_remote_storage
## Problem
neon_fixtures.py has grown to unmanageable size. It attracts conflicts.
When adding specific utils under for example `fixtures/pageserver`
things sometimes need to import stuff from `neon_fixtures.py` which
creates circular import. This is usually only needed for type
annotations, so `typing.TYPE_CHECKING` flag can mask the issue.
Nevertheless I believe that splitting neon_fixtures.py into smaller
parts is a better approach.
Currently the PR contains small things, but I plan to continue and move
NeonEnv to its own `fixtures.env` module. To keep the diff small I think
this PR can already be merged to cause less conflicts.
UPD: it looks like currently its not really possible to fully avoid
usage of `typing.TYPE_CHECKING`, because some components directly depend
on each other. I e Env -> Cli -> Env cycle. But its still worth it to
avoid it in as many places as possible. And decreasing neon_fixture's
size still makes sense.
added the `allowed_error` to the `positive_env` so any tests completing
the attach are allowed have this print out. they are allowed to do so,
because the `random_init_delay` can produce close to zero and thus the
first run will be near attach. Though... Unsure if we ever really need
the eviction task to run **before** it can evict something, as in after
20min or 24h.
in the failed test case however period is 20s so interesting that we
didn't run into this sooner.

This parameter can be use to restrict number of image layers generated
because of GC request (wanted image layers).
Been set to zero it completely eliminates creation of such image layers.
So it allows to avoid extra storage consumption after merging #3673
## Problem
PR #3673 forces generation of missed image layers. So i short term is
cause cause increase (in worst case up to two times) size of storage.
It was intended (by me) that GC period is comparable with PiTR interval.
But looks like it is not the case now - GC is performed much more
frequently. It may cause the problem with space exhaustion: GC forces
new image creation while large PiTR still prevent GC from collecting old
layers.
## Summary of changes
Add new pageserver parameter` forced_image_creation_limit` which
restrict number of created image layers which are requested by GC.
