docs: switch to sphinx-multiversion for multi-versioned docs (#734)
The sphinxcontrib-versioning seems unmaintainted and I can't
get the fork that we used before this PR working on Python 3.10.

The situation wrt maintenance doesn't seem much better for
sphinx-multiversion, but, at least I could get it to work
with current sphinx versions.

The main problem with sphinx-multiversion is that it doesn't render
anything at `/`. I.e., `https://zrepl.github.io/configuration.html` will
be 404.
That's different from `sphinxcontrib-versioning`, and thus switching
to sphinx-multiversion would break URLs.
We host on GitHub pages and don't control the webserver,
so, we can't use webserver-level redirects to keep the URLs working.
We could create JS-level redirects, or `http-equiv`, but that's ugly as
well.
The simplest solution was to fork sphinx-multiversion and hard-code
zrepl's specific needs into that fork.
The fork is based off v0.2.4 and pinned via requirements.txt.
Here are its unique commits:
https://github.com/Holzhaus/sphinx-multiversion/compare/master...zrepl:sphinx-multiversion:zrepl

We should revisit `sphinx-polyversion` in the future once its docs
improve.
See
https://github.com/Holzhaus/sphinx-multiversion/issues/88#issuecomment-1606221194

This PR updates the various Python packages, as I couldn't get
sphinx-multiversion to work with the (very old) versions that were
pinned in `requirements.txt` prior to this PR.
This PR's `requirements.txt` is from a clean Python 3.10 venv on Ubuntu
22.10 after running

```
pip install sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme
pip install 'git+https://github.com/zrepl/sphinx-multiversion/@52c915d7ad898d9641ec48c8bbccb7d4f079db93#egg=sphinx_multiversion'

6be133f55d remove unused JobDebugSettings along with docs
For this kind of debugging, we switched to env vars a while ago.
For example, ZREPL_RPC_DEBUG.

I don't think we have a substitute for the RPCLog stuff.
However, NetConnLogger is still in the codebase.

2d8c3692ec rework resume token validation to allow resuming from raw sends of unencrypted datasets
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.

In reality, the first valid is used, so an ordered list and

2642c64303 make initial replication policy configurable (most_recent, all, fail)
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().

fb6a9be954 fix encrypt-on-receive with placeholders
fixes https://github.com/zrepl/zrepl/issues/504

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
