This patch adds a new configuration file, cassandra_latest.yaml, which changes
some of the settings to use new features we usually recommend to users,
including:
- Big Trie-Indexed SSTables
- Trie memtables
- Unified Compaction Strategy
- Storage Attached Index
- Off-heap objects memtables
- Direct-write commit log
- No storage compatibility
These changes are applied in new test targets for unit, in-jvm and python dtests that are
run pre-commit. When changes are made to the new config file, python dtest will use it
directly, but unit and in-jvm dtests require updates, respectively, to latest_diff.yaml
and InstanceConfig.java.

See .build/README.md .Build and test scripts cover all CI activities in an CI agnostic manner. Scripts are found in non-docker and dockerised variants.
The non-docker scripts are found first under .build/ .These interact directly with ant, providing additional checks and environment setup. It is intended that what can be pushed down into the base ant build layer should be. The
debian and redhat build scripts are hidden under .build/docker because they are generally not usuable outside of their corresponding linux dists, and we don't want to encourage anything to the contrary. Bring the artifact/deb/rpm
build scripts (and associated docker images) from cassandra-builds repo to the .build directory. These packaging script for debian and redhat are now separated from the artifacts scripts. An additional build script check-code.sh
has been added that is solely responsible for all linter and code checks (includes owasp dependency checker). Only JDK11 and JDK17 are supported (as JDK8 is soon to be dropped). Scripts do not clean (or realclean) so that
scripts can be better pipelined, but `ant jar` was required to be added to circleci and ci-cassandra.a.o cqlsh-tests. Scripts can define a custom BUILD_DIR (build.dir) which can permit running parrallel builds off the same source
(though not all tests support this, or their support for it has atrophied). All build and test artifacts, results, and logs are found under build/ (or the BUILD_DIR). The build local venv and .ccm directories are now also
created under build (or BUILD_DIR). The test venv, logs and results are wiped each run. Use a separate mktemp directory each run, under /tmp (respect /tmp responsibility, and python fails when tmpdir is on a docker volume).
Don't set CASSANDRA_HOME when running python dtests (and fail-fast if `ant artifacts` was used to build instead of `ant jar`).
The docker scripts are found lower down under .build/docker/ .These scripts re-used the non-docker scripts inside containers. The docker images are versioned controlled in the same directory as dockerfiles, and tagged by their
md5sums. When running the docker scripts these docker images will, if not in the local registry, will first be attempted to be pulled from dockerhub and only then fallback to be built locally. This allows the dockerfiles to be
modified in existing patches and be run in existing CI as-is. Docker scripts timeout after one hour. virtualenv-clone is used, re-using the python versioned venvs in the image saves time over creating new ones each run. The inner-spliting of docker containers has been removed. It added a lot of complexity, for the most part duplicating the splitting concept, for little performance gain.
Ant target 'generate-unified-test-report' added, used for aggregating test reports and printing a summary.

Allow the user to use a flag to specify a non-default comparison git
branch when detecting changed unit tests to repeat.
