This commit adds high-level functions for creating and loading-from
incremental snapshots, plus all low-level functions required to perform
those tasks. This commit **does not** add taking incremental snapshots
as part of a running validator, nor starting up a node with an
incremental snapshot; just laying ground work.
Additionally, `snapshot_utils` and `serde_snapshot` have been
refactored to use a common code paths for the different snapshots.
Also of note, some renaming has happened:
1. Snapshots are now either `full_` or `incremental_` throughout the
codebase. If not specified, the code applies to both.
2. Bank snapshots now are called "bank snapshots"
(before they were called "slot snapshots", "bank snapshots", or
just "snapshots"). The one exception is within `Bank`, where they
are still just "snapshots", because they are already "bank
snapshots".
3. Snapshot archives now have `_archive` in the code. This
should clear up an ambiguity between bank snapshots and snapshot
archives.
1. Added both options for measuring space usage using total accounts usage and for individual store shrink ratio using an enum. Validator CLI options: --accounts-shrink-optimize-total-space and --accounts-shrink-ratio
2. Added code for selecting candidates based on total usage in a separate function select_candidates_by_total_usage
3. Added unit tests for the new functions added
4. The default implementations is kept at 0.8 shrink ratio with --accounts-shrink-optimize-total-space set to true
Fixes#17544
* Move gossip modules to solana-gossip
* Update Protocol abi digest due to move
* Move gossip benches and hook up CI
* Remove unneeded Result entries
* Single use statements
* purge_old_snapshot_archives is changed to take an extra argument 'maximum_snapshots_to_retain' to control the max number of latest snapshot archives to retain. Note the oldest snapshot is always retained as before and is not subjected to this new options.
* The validator and ledger-tool executables are modified with a CLI argument --maximum-snapshots-to-retain. And the options are propagated down the call chains. Their corresponding shell scripts were changed accordingly.
* SnapshotConfig is modified to have an extra field for the maximum_snapshots_to_retain
* Unit tests are developed to cover purge_old_snapshot_archives
* Move bank drop to AccountsBackgroundService
* Send to ABS on drop instead, protects against other places banks are dropped
* Fix Abi
* test
