John Spray 814c8e8f68 storage controller: add node deletion API (#8226)
## Problem

In anticipation of later adding a really nice drain+delete API, I
initially only added an intentionally basic `/drop` API that is just
about usable for deleting nodes in a pinch, but requires some ugly
storage controller restarts to persuade it to restart secondaries.

## Summary of changes

I started making a few tiny fixes, and ended up writing the delete
API...

- Quality of life nit: ordering of node + tenant listings in storcon_cli
- Papercut: Fix the attach_hook using the wrong operation type for
reporting slow locks
- Make Service::spawn tolerate `generation_pageserver` columns that
point to nonexistent node IDs. I started out thinking of this as a
general resilience thing, but when implementing the delete API I
realized it was actually a legitimate end state after the delete API is
called (as that API doesn't wait for all reconciles to succeed).
- Add a `DELETE` API for nodes, which does not gracefully drain, but
does reschedule everything. This becomes safe to use when the system is
in any state, but will incur availability gaps for any tenants that
weren't already live-migrated away. If tenants have already been
drained, this becomes a totally clean + safe way to decom a node.
- Add a test and a storcon_cli wrapper for it

This is meant to be a robust initial API that lets us remove nodes
without doing ugly things like restarting the storage controller -- it's
not quite a totally graceful node-draining routine yet. There's more
work in https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/8333 to get to our
end-end state.
