Christian Schwarz 30cdc1430e replication + endpoint: replication guarantees: guarantee_{resumability,incremental,nothing}
This commit

- adds a configuration in which no step holds, replication cursors, etc. are created
- removes the send.step_holds.disable_incremental setting
- creates a new config option `replication` for active-side jobs
- adds the replication.protection.{initial,incremental} settings, each
  of which can have values
    - `guarantee_resumability`
    - `guarantee_incremental`
    - `guarantee_nothing`
  (refer to docs/configuration/replication.rst for semantics)

The `replication` config from an active side is sent to both endpoint.Sender and endpoint.Receiver
for each replication step. Sender and Receiver then act accordingly.

For `guarantee_incremental`, we add the new `tentative-replication-cursor` abstraction.
The necessity for that abstraction is outlined in https://github.com/zrepl/zrepl/issues/340.

# This config serves as an example for a local zrepl installation that
# backups the entire zpool `system` to `backuppool/zrepl/sink`
#
# The requirements covered by this setup are described in the zrepl documentation's
# quick start section which inlines this example.
#
# CUSTOMIZATIONS YOU WILL LIKELY WANT TO APPLY:
# - adjust the name of the production pool `system` in the `filesystems` filter of jobs `snapjob` and `push_to_derive`
# - adjust the name of the backup pool `backuppool` in the `backuppool_sink` job
# - adjust the occurences of `myhostname` to the name of the system you are backing up (cannot be easily changed once you start replicating)
# - make sure the `zrepl_` prefix is not being used by any other zfs tools you might have installed (it likely isn't)

# Thus, when we yank out the backup drive during replication
# - we might not be able to resume the interrupted replication step because the partially received `to` snapshot of a `from`->`to` step may be pruned any time
# - but in exchange we get back the disk space allocated by `to` when we prune it
# - and because we still have the bookmarks created by `guarantee_incremental`, we can still do incremental replication of `from`->`to2` in the future
