1. Change config format to support multiple types
of snapshotting modes.
2. Implement a hacky way to support periodic or completely
manual snaphots.
In manual mode, the user has to trigger replication using the wakeup
mechanism after they took snapshots using their own tooling.
As indicated by the comment, a more general solution would be desirable,
but we want to get the release out and 'manual' mode is a feature that
some people requested...
The new local transport uses socketpair() and a switchboard based on
client identities.
The special local job type is gone, which is good since it does not fit
into the 'Active/Passive side ' + 'mode' concept used to implement the
duality of push/sink | pull/source.
Just because taking one snapshot fails does not mean snapper needs to
stop for all others.
Since users are advised to monitor error logs, snapshot-taking errors
can still be addressed.
The ErrorWait mode allows a potential future Report / Status command to
distinguish normal waits from error waits.
Also:
- Defensive measures in control http server (1s timeouts)
(prevent the leak, even if request body is not closed)
- Add prometheus metrics to track control socket latencies
(were used for debugging)
A bookmark with a well-known name is used to track which version was
last successfully received by the receiver.
The createtxg that can be retrieved from the bookmark using `zfs get` is
used to set the Replicated attribute of each snap on the sender:
If the snap's CreateTXG > the cursor's, it is not yet replicated,
otherwise it has been.
There is an optional config option to change the behvior to
`CreateTXG >= the cursor's`, and the implementation defaults to that.
The reason: While things work just fine with `CreateTXG > the cursor's`,
ZFS does not provide size estimates in a `zfs send` dry run
(see acd2418).
However, to enable the use case of keeping the snapshot only around for
the replication, the config flag exists.
