A 32-bit length field read from the wire by CBUtil.readValue (and its
siblings) flowed directly into new byte[length] with no upper bound,
allowing an unauthenticated client to drive the JVM into
OutOfMemoryError: 'Requested array size exceeds VM limit' — and, with
the default -XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=kill -9 %p, terminate the process —
by declaring Integer.MAX_VALUE as the SASL-token length in AUTH_RESPONSE.
Guard the allocation in the single private readRawBytes(ByteBuf, int)
that all int32-length readers funnel through, rejecting lengths that
exceed the buffer's readable bytes with a ProtocolException.

Use a single one-time scheduled task with two tick-tock buffers to recycle metric IDs after a sufficiently long delay.
Use phantom references for ThreadLocalMetrics cleanup ony if it is needed to reduce the references processing overhead.

nodetool getendpoints is deprecated. Also, all StorageServiceMBean.getNaturalEndpoints* methods are
deprecated and they call their replica counterparts. The deprecated methods are also not used directly anywhere
in the code (nor tests).

Cassandra resolves pluggable extensions by class name from configuration, schema, and tooling
inputs. These names were loaded with an initializing Class.forName(name) and type-checked only
afterward, so the named class ran its static initializer before its type was confirmed. After this
change such classes will be loaded without initialization, verified against the expected interface or
base class, and initialized only through normal use after validation.
A shared FBUtilities.classForNameWithoutInitialization helper and typed
instanceOrConstruct/construct overloads apply this to the configurable extension points loaded by
class name: the authentication, authorization, role-management, network and
internode-authenticator backends, the partitioner, audit logger, configuration loader, seed provider,
snitch, abstract types, secondary and custom indexes, compaction strategy, compressor, replication
strategy, SASI analyzers, key and cache providers, query handler, storage and stream hooks, tracing,
the JMX authorization proxy, MBeans, the monotonic clock, nodetool Sjk, triggers, the
sstableloader and stress class options, and diagnostic event classes (loaded without initialization
and checked against DiagnosticEvent, preserving the InvalidClassException contract and the existing
package restriction).
Regression tests confirm that an invalid-type load is rejected without initializing the target
class, and that valid implementations still resolve.
Hadoop client integration and hard-coded JDK and internal class probes are left unchanged.

SEPExecutor.maybeExecuteImmediately() runs a task synchronously on the
calling worker thread, nested within the task the worker is already
running. Such immediate tasks were invisible in system_views.queries, which only exposed each worker's primary running task.
This is common on the coordinator path, where a local read or mutation is executed immediately within the enclosing QUERY task.
Each SEPWorker now also tracks an immediate current task, set around
maybeExecuteImmediately(), and exposes it as an additional
DebuggableTaskRunner, so the queries table reports both the enclosing
task and the immediate one as separate rows.

Replaces the fixed-retry commit loop with deadline-based exponential
backoff for long running CMS commit operations (cms_commit_timeout=1h, 5s-60s jitter)
to allow heavily contended CMS nodes time to commit transforms.

- Introduced LocalCommand marker interface to identify commands that execute purely locally without a JMX connection.
- Updated History command to implement LocalCommand.
- Updated CassandraCliHelpLayout to check for LocalCommand instead of calling execution-flow methods, safely suppressing JMX options for offline commands.

* Insert the actual PreInitialize entry in the distribute metadata log
table using a callback after the log is bootstrapped.
* Remove the implicit insert on subsequent commit, i.e. of the Initialize entry
* Enables the full specifics of PreInit to be encoded in the serialized form,
removing the special casing for the first CMS member and other nodes
* Correctly invalidate cached KeyspaceMetadata when in a pre-initialized state
* Update Host ids in the system.peers_v2 table directly following CMS initialization
* Initialise gossip/local host id after CMS initialization completes
* Clean up CMS initialization errors which occur after the PreInitialize stage
