The function now computes an optimal assignation (with respect to partition size) that minimizes the distance to the former assignation, using flow algorithms.

This change helps ensure that nodes for each partition are spread
over all datacenters, a property that wasn't ensured previously
when going from a 2 DC deployment to a 3 DC deployment
This commit adds support to discover garage instances running in
kubernetes.
Once enabled by setting `kubernetes_namespace` and
`kubernetes_service_name` garage will create a Custom Resources
`garagenodes.deuxfleurs.fr` with nodes public key as the resource name.
and IP and Port information as spec in the namespace configured by
`kubernetes_namespace`.
For discovering nodes the resources are filtered with the optionally set
`kubernetes_service_name` which sets a label
`garage.deuxfleurs.fr/service` on the resources.
This allows to separate multiple garage deployments in a single
namespace.
the `kubernetes_skip_crd` variable allows to disable the creation of the
CRD by garage itself. The user must deploy this manually.
- change the terminology: the network configuration becomes the role
table, the configuration of a nodes becomes a node's role
- the modification of the role table takes place in two steps: first,
changes are staged in a CRDT data structure. Then, once the user is
happy with the changes, they can commit them all at once (or revert
them).
- update documentation
- fix tests
- implement smarter partition assignation algorithm
This patch breaks the format of the network configuration: when
migrating, the cluster will be in a state where no roles are assigned.
All roles must be re-assigned and commited at once. This migration
should not pose an issue.
- Explicit "replication_mode" configuration parameters that takes
either "none", "2" or "3" as values, instead of letting user configure
replication factor themselves. These are presets whose corresponding
replication/quorum values can be found in replication/mode.rs
- Explicit support for single-node and two-node deployments
(number of nodes must be at least "replication_mode", with "none"
we can have only one node)
- Ring is now stored much more compactly with 256*8 + n*32 bytes,
instead of 256*32 bytes
- Support for gateway-only nodes that do not store data
(these nodes still need a metadata_directory to store the list
of bucket and keys since those are stored on all nodes; it also
technically needs a data_directory to start but it will stay
empty unless we have bugs)
