Vlad Lazar 3f91ea28d9 tests: add infra and test for storcon leadership transfer (#8587)
## Problem
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/8588 implemented the mechanism
for storage controller
leadership transfers. However, there's no tests that exercise the
behaviour.

## Summary of changes
1. Teach `neon_local` how to handle multiple storage controller
instances. Each storage controller
instance gets its own subdirectory (`storage_controller_1, ...`).
`storage_controller start|stop` subcommands
have also been extended to optionally accept an instance id.
2. Add a storage controller proxy test fixture. It's a basic HTTP server
that forwards requests from pageserver
and test env to the currently configured storage controller.
3. Add a test which exercises storage controller leadership transfer.
4. Finally fix a couple bugs that the test surfaced

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.
