Alex Chi Z. 8d70f88b37 refactor(pageserver): use JSON field encoding for consumption metrics cache (#9470)
In https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/9032, I would like to
eventually add a `generation` field to the consumption metrics cache.
The current encoding is not backward compatible and it is hard to add
another field into the cache. Therefore, this patch refactors the format
to store "field -> value", and it's easier to maintain backward/forward
compatibility with this new format.

## Summary of changes

* Add `NewRawMetric` as the new format.
* Add upgrade path. When opening the disk cache, the codepath first
inspects the `version` field, and decide how to decode.
* Refactor metrics generation code and tests.
* Add tests on upgrade / compatibility with the old format.
