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).

This was merged to master prematurely as the job components are not decoupled well enough
for these signals to be useful yet.
This reverts commit 2c8c2cfa14.

Unless we're using the global source for math/rand, (*rand.Rand).Read
should not be called concurrently. We seed the rng in daemon.Run to
avoid ambiguity or hiding global side effects inside packages.

- drop HintMostRecentCommonAncestor rpc call
- it is wrong to put faith into the active side of the replication to always make that call
(we might not trust it, ref pull setup)
- clean up step holds + step bookmarks + replication cursor bookmarks on
send RPC instead
- this makes it symmetric with Receive RPC
- use a cache (endpoint.sendAbstractionsCache) to avoid the cost of
listing the on-disk endpoint abstractions state on every step
The "create" methods for endpoint abstractions (CreateReplicationCursor, HoldStep) are now fully
idempotent and return an Abstraction.
Notes about endpoint.sendAbstractionsCache:
- fills lazily from disk state on first `Get` operation
- fill from disk is generally only attempted once
- unless the `ListAbstractions` fails, in which case the fill from
disk is retried on next `Get` (the current `Get` will observe a
subset of the actual on-disk abstractions)
- the `Invalidate` method is called
- it is a global (zrepl process-wide) cache
fixes#316
package trace:
- introduce the concept of tasks and spans, tracked as linked list within ctx
- see package-level docs for an overview of the concepts
- **main feature 1**: unique stack of task and span IDs
- makes it easy to follow a series of log entries in concurrent code
- **main feature 2**: ability to produce a chrome://tracing-compatible trace file
- either via an env variable or a `zrepl pprof` subcommand
- this is not a CPU profile, we already have go pprof for that
- but it is very useful to visually inspect where the
replication / snapshotter / pruner spends its time
( fixes#307 )
usage in package daemon/logging:
- goal: every log entry should have a trace field with the ID stack from package trace
- make `logging.GetLogger(ctx, Subsys)` the authoritative `logger.Logger` factory function
- the context carries a linked list of injected fields which
`logging.GetLogger` adds to the logger it returns
- `logging.GetLogger` also uses package `trace` to get the
task-and-span-stack and injects it into the returned logger's fields
