Christian Schwarz 450be26bbb fast imports: initial Importer and Storage changes (#9218)

# Context

This PR contains PoC-level changes for a product feature that allows
onboarding large databases into Neon without going through the regular
data path.

# Changes

This internal RFC provides all the context
* https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/pull/19799

In the language of the RFC, this PR covers

* the Importer code (`fast_import`) 
* all the Pageserver changes (mgmt API changes, flow implementation,
etc)
* a basic test for the Pageserver changes

# Reviewing

As acknowledged in the RFC, the code added in this PR is not ready for
general availability.
Also, the **architecture is not to be discussed in this PR**, but in the
RFC and associated Slack channel instead.

Reviewers of this PR should take that into consideration.
The quality bar to apply during review depends on what area of the code
is being reviewed:

* Importer code (`fast_import`): practically anything goes
* Core flow (`flow.rs`):
* Malicious input data must be expected and the existing threat models
apply.
* The code must not be safe to execute on *dedicated* Pageserver
instances:
* This means in particular that tenants *on other* Pageserver instances
must not be affected negatively wrt data confidentiality, integrity or
availability.
* Other code: the usual quality bar
* Pay special attention to correct use of gate guards, timeline
cancellation in all places during shutdown & migration, etc.
* Consider the broader system impact; if you find potentially
problematic interactions with Storage features that were not covered in
the RFC, bring that up during the review.

I recommend submitting three separate reviews, for the three high-level
areas with different quality bars.

Control Plane and Neon Local

This crate contains tools to start a Neon development environment locally. This utility can be used with the cargo neon command.

Example: Start with Postgres 16

To create and start a local development environment with Postgres 16, you will need to provide --pg-version flag to 3 of the start-up commands.

cargo neon init --pg-version 16
cargo neon start
cargo neon tenant create --set-default --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16
cargo neon endpoint start main

Example: Create Test User and Database

By default, cargo neon starts an endpoint with cloud_admin and postgres database. If you want to have a role and a database similar to what we have on the cloud service, you can do it with the following commands when starting an endpoint.

cargo neon endpoint create main --pg-version 16 --update-catalog true
cargo neon endpoint start main --create-test-user true

The first command creates neon_superuser and necessary roles. The second command creates test user and neondb database. You will see a connection string that connects you to the test user after running the second command.
