John Spray baa5fa1e77 pageserver: location configuration API, attachment modes, secondary locations (#5299)
## Problem

These changes are part of building seamless tenant migration, as
described in the RFC:
- https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5029

## Summary of changes

- A new configuration type `LocationConf` supersedes `TenantConfOpt` for
storing a tenant's configuration in the pageserver repo dir. It contains
`TenantConfOpt`, as well as a new `mode` attribute that describes what
kind of location this is (secondary, attached, attachment mode etc). It
is written to a file called `config-v1` instead of `config` -- this
prepares us for neatly making any other profound changes to the format
of the file in future. Forward compat for existing pageserver code is
achieved by writing out both old and new style files. Backward compat is
achieved by checking for the old-style file if the new one isn't found.
- The `TenantMap` type changes, to hold `TenantSlot` instead of just
`Tenant`. The `Tenant` type continues to be used for attached tenants
only. Tenants in other states (such as secondaries) are represented by a
different variant of `TenantSlot`.
- Where `Tenant` & `Timeline` used to hold an Arc<Mutex<TenantConfOpt>>,
they now hold a reference to a AttachedTenantConf, which includes the
extra information from LocationConf. This enables them to know the
current attachment mode.
- The attachment mode is used as an advisory input to decide whether to
do compaction and GC (AttachedStale is meant to avoid doing uploads,
AttachedMulti is meant to avoid doing deletions).
- A new HTTP API is added at `PUT /tenants/<tenant_id>/location_config`
to drive new location configuration. This provides a superset of the
functionality of attach/detach/load/ignore:
  - Attaching a tenant is just configuring it in an attached state
  - Detaching a tenant is configuring it to a detached state
  - Loading a tenant is just the same as attaching it
- Ignoring a tenant is the same as configuring it into Secondary with
warm=false (i.e. retain the files on disk but do nothing else).

Caveats:
- AttachedMulti tenants don't do compaction in this PR, but they do in
the follow on #5397
- Concurrent updates to the `location_config` API are not handled
elegantly in this PR, a better mechanism is added in the follow on
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/5367
- Secondary mode is just a placeholder in this PR: the code to upload
heatmaps and do downloads on secondary locations will be added in a
later PR (but that shouldn't change any external interfaces)

Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/5379
