Erik Grinaker 65addfc524 storcon: add per-tenant rate limiting for API requests (#10924)
## Problem

Incoming requests often take the service lock, and sometimes even do
database transactions. That creates a risk that a rogue client can
starve the controller of the ability to do its primary job of
reconciling tenants to an available state.

## Summary of changes

* Use the `governor` crate to rate limit tenant requests at 10 requests
per second. This is ~10-100x lower than the worst "attack" we've seen
from a client bug. Admin APIs are not rate limited.
* Add a `storage_controller_http_request_rate_limited` histogram for
rate limited requests.
* Log a warning every 10 seconds for rate limited tenants.

The rate limiter is parametrized on TenantId, because the kinds of
client bug we're protecting against generally happen within tenant
scope, and the rates should be somewhat stable: we expect the global
rate of requests to increase as we do more work, but we do not expect
the rate of requests to one tenant to increase.
