Before this change, resuming from an unencrypted dataset with
send.raw=true specified wouldn't work with zrepl due to overly
restrictive resume token checking.
An initial PR to fix this was made in https://github.com/zrepl/zrepl/pull/503
but it didn't address the core of the problem.
The core of the problem was that zrepl assumed that if a resume token
contained `rawok=true, compressok=true`, the resulting send would be
encrypted. But if the sender dataset was unencrypted, such a resume would
actually result in an unencrypted send.
Which could be totally legitimate but zrepl failed to recognize that.
BACKGROUND
==========
The following snippets of OpenZFS code are insightful regarding how the
various ${X}ok values in the resume token are handled:
- 6c3c5fcfbe/module/zfs/dmu_send.c (L1947-L2012)
- 6c3c5fcfbe/module/zfs/dmu_recv.c (L877-L891)
- https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/blob/6c3c5fc/lib/libzfs/libzfs_sendrecv.c#L1663-L1672
Basically, some zfs send flags make the DMU send code set some DMU send
stream featureflags, although it's not a pure mapping, i.e, which DMU
send stream flags are used depends somewhat on the dataset (e.g., is it
encrypted or not, or, does it use zstd or not).
Then, the receiver looks at some (but not all) feature flags and maps
them to ${X}ok dataset zap attributes.
These are funnelled back to the sender 1:1 through the resume_token.
And the sender turns them into lzc flags.
As an example, let's look at zfs send --raw.
if the sender requests a raw send on an unencrypted dataset, the send
stream (and hence the resume token) will not have the raw stream
featureflag set, and hence the resume token will not have the rawok
field set. Instead, it will have compressok, embedok, and depending
on whether large blocks are present in the dataset, largeblockok set.
WHAT'S ZREPL'S ROLE IN THIS?
============================
zrepl provides a virtual encrypted sendflag that is like `raw`,
but further ensures that we only send encrypted datasets.
For any other resume token stuff, it shoudn't do any checking,
because it's a futile effort to keep up with ZFS send/recv features
that are orthogonal to encryption.
CHANGES MADE IN THIS COMMIT
===========================
- Rip out a bunch of needless checking that zrepl would do during
planning. These checks were there to give better error messages,
but actually, the error messages created by the endpoint.Sender.Send
RPC upon send args validation failure are good enough.
- Add platformtests to validate all combinations of
(Unencrypted/Encrypted FS) x (send.encrypted = true | false) x (send.raw = true | false)
for cases both non-resuming and resuming send.
Additional manual testing done:
1. With zrepl 0.5, setup with unencrypted dataset, send.raw=true specified, no send.encrypted specified.
2. Observe that regular non-resuming send works, but resuming doesn't work.
3. Upgrade zrepl to this change.
4. Observe that both regular and resuming send works.

Use it from a top-level test case to queue the
execution of sub-tests after this test case is complete.
Note that the testing harness executes the subtest
_after_ the current top-level test. Hence, the subtest
cannot use any ZFS state of the top-level test.
There were and still is too many words. It's a very white paper vibe.
Docs needs to be more brief, exact, and on-point.

Previously with unordered list, and 'are considered'
left if unsure whether one or all files are 'considered'.
In reality, the first valid is used, so an ordered list and
perhaps better wording communicates this fact.

The goroutine that does endTask() for
"list-abstractions-streamed-producer" can be preempted
after it has closed the out and outErrs channel,
but before it calls endTask().
If the parent ("handler") then gets scheduled and
and ends itself, it will observe an active child task
"list-abstractions-streamed-producer".
This is easy to demo by injecting a sleep here:

+++ b/endpoint/endpoint_zfs_abstraction.go

It may be desirable to check that a config is valid without checking for
the existence of certificate files (e.g. when validating a config inside
a sandbox without access to the cert files).
This will be very useful for NixOS so that we can check the config file
at nix-build time (e.g. potentially without proper permissions to read cert
files for a TLS connection).

Config:
```
- type: push
...
conflict_resolution:
initial_replication: most_recent | all | fali
```
The ``initial_replication`` option determines which snapshots zrepl
replicates if the filesystem has not been replicated before.
If ``most_recent`` (the default), the initial replication will only
transfer the most recent snapshot, while ignoring previous snapshots.
If all snapshots should be replicated, specify ``all``.
Use ``fail`` to make replication of the filesystem fail in case
there is no corresponding fileystem on the receiver.
Code-Level Changes, apart from the obvious:
- Rework IncrementalPath()'s return signature.
Now returns an error for initial replications as well.
- Rename & rework it's consumer, resolveConflict().

Juding from the (now deleted) comments in go.mod, this might break 1.12
build. If it does, the CI will catch it as it currently build using

Problem:
plain send + recv with root_fs encrypted + placeholders causes plain recvs
whereas user would expect encrypt-on-recv
Reason:
We create placeholder filesytems with -o encryption=off.
Thus, children received below those placeholders won't inherit
encryption of root_fs.
Fix:
We'll have three values for `recv.placeholders.encryption: unspecified (default) | off | inherit`.
When we create a placeholder, we will fail the operation if `recv.placeholders.encryption = unspecified`.
The exception is if the placeholder filesystem is to encode the client identity ($root_fs/$client_identity) in a pull job.
Those are created in `inherit` mode if the config field is `unspecified` so that users who don't need
placeholders are not bothered by these details.
Future Work:
Automatically warn existing users of encrypt-on-recv about the problem
if they are affected.
The problem that I hit during implementation of this is that the
`encryption` prop's `source` doesn't quite behave like other props:
`source` is `default` for `encryption=off` and `-` when `encryption=on`.
Hence, we can't use `source` to distinguish the following 2x2 cases:
(1) placeholder created with explicit -o encryption=off
(2) placeholder created without specifying -o encryption
with
(A) an encrypted parent at creation time
(B) an unencrypted parent at creation time
- Substitute full words for both string name 'gridspec' and short form 'grid spec'
- Fix alignment and make spacing more consistent
- Fix fall of snapshots into buckets for the example to really reflect right-exclusiveness

We had too many spurious test failures in the past.
But on a developer machine, the tests don't usually fail because the
system isn't loaded as much.
So, only disable test on CircleCI.
