* Arena/FastAlloc: add comments where potential metrics can be added (#12306)
* Arena/FastAlloc: add comments where potential metrics can be incremented.
The intent is to count allocations and bytes.
Remove a commented-out ifdef block that has been disabled for many years and
which does not work (per the explanation in the comment). We don't need to
keep reading about the results of a small failed experiment from many years ago.
* add more one FIXME comment
* add one more METRICS-FIXME
* Add a SimpleCounter template for counter metrics (#12326)
* ignore TAGS (from etags/ctags)
* Add initial SimpleCounter interface/implementation/unit tests
* Add initial SimpleCounter interface/implementation/unit tests
* Fix unit test
* Improve clarity on unit test
* Update FIXME comments
* Address review comments. Must use function local static mutex
* update comment
* Go back to template specializations to handle older C++ versions
* SimpleCounter: periodically log the counters to TraceEvent (#12329)
* SimpleCounter: periodically log the counters to TraceEvent. Muck with hierarchical names to comply with random rules.
* Update doc about Prometheus metric names
* relax assertion about counter count, because unit test is actually running in fdbserver and that causes a unrelated counter to be created
* Update SimpleCounter unit tests not to use metric names that break Trace.cpp simulation-only checks (#12333)
* Add a pointed comment in UnitTest.h about some weaknesses
* Use counter names that will get converted to field names that TraceEvent does not complain about
* unit test: do not use a counter name that will cause Trace.cpp to emit errors in simulation
* update comment about caveats with unittests breaking simulation
* yet another field name fix
* just call validateField() directly from simple counters
* run report loop in unit tests
* fix build, fix comment
* blah blah blah
* always be munging metric names
* Instrument Arena, FastAlloc, Platform.cpp with SimpleCounter metrics to count allocations and bytes (#12339)
* emit a simpleCounterReport when we declare out of memory
* FastAlloc.h: initial pass of adding byte/object allocation/deallocation metrics
* Avoid conflict over the name SimpleCounter by eliminating this private definition of a name which is too valuable for this one random file to claim for its own use
* FastAlloc.cpp, Platform.actor.cpp: initial pass at adding SimpleCounter metrics to count allocations and bytes
* rename wrapper calls and update comments
* Count bytes copied in StringRef
* Arena.cpp: instrument allocations and some other stuff
* Arena.cpp: simplify use of SimpleCounter
* simpleCounterReport: generate TraceEvent in batches of MAX_TRACE_EVENT_LENGTH / 100 counters to avoid trace buffer overflow
* Eliminate poorly motivated trace field name validation, and change SimpleCounter to emit Prometheus-compatible metric names (#12356)
Trace.cpp does not provide a rationale for validateField() and validateFormat(). It appears to be some kind of
XML related validation. Why we should care about this is not clear. The output is going to Splunk. As far as I know, Splunk is supposed to be pretty liberal in what it accepts as input.
Add logic in SimpleCounter.cpp to convert hierarchical metric names to Prometheus compatible metric names
by the simple rule of converting intermediate '/' chars into '_', i.e. something like /flow/arena/bytesAllocated becomes
flow_arena_bytesAllocated. I feel hierarchical names are still slightly better, and very easy to reason about when
creating new metric names on the fly, but ensuring that they are at least Prometheus compatible should allow targeting
to future metrics platforms down the road.

* replace undocumented trace event field name rules with a rule that enforces that field names must be valid Prometheus metric names. No idea why the old code declines to even state what it is trying to be compatible with
* move Prometheus metric name validation to SimpleCounter.cpp. Remove validation from Trace.cpp. This stuff is going to Splunk. Splunk takes what we give it.
* Use simple counter to replace recently added net2 counters (#12358)
* use simple counter to replace recent added net2 counters
* allow unit test to use SimpleCounter Trace event

* Put guard pages next to fast alloc memory
I verified that we can now detect #6753 without creating tons of
threads.
* Use pageSize instead of 4096
* Don't include mmapInternal for windows
* Set default for USE_JEMALLOC initially in ConfigureCompiler
Instead of trying to change the value later on. This fixes the valgrind
build, which was previously incorrectly getting jemalloc involved.
* Check aligned_alloc result for null
And OOM if so - don't assert
* Check that we can allocate magazines with no internal fragmentation
We may want to do this so that the jemalloc heap profiler has some
knowledge of FastAlloc
* Populate TestFile field for noSim tests in TestHarness
* Remove handling for nonexistent "ActualRun"
* Add contrib/debug_determinism
Add an instrumentation-based technique for debugging unseen mismatches. Also guard a few existing sources of nondeterminism that don't affect unseen with the DEBUG_DETERMINISM macro.
Also change the simulated run loop to not run as the only task inside the real run loop, since that was a source of nondeterminism.
Also fix nondeterminism from calling timer_int
* Add StorageMetadataType::currentTime
Basically a deterministic-in-simulation version of timer_int that we can
use instead of timer_int for StorageMetadataType::createdTime
- NOMINMAX to fix confusion between std::max(..) and max(..) macro redefinition
- BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H to prevent boost from redefining win32 APIs
- WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN to fix include ordering issues with winsock.h
PacketBuffers are 16k minimum sizes, using FastAlloc. All calling paths to PacketBuffer creation now pass a size hint if known. P2PNetworkTest improved in many ways, errors go to TraceEvents instead of stdout, error counts are reported in stats, range min/max parameters are combined into "min:max" strings, new options to "stutter" connections by delaying randomly before socket read or write, message size to send is now configured separately for incoming vs outgoing sessions.
FastAlloc is the major memory use case in FDB, yet we can't profiling its usage.
This commit replaces FastAlloc memory allocation with malloc so that we may
track its memory usage when gperftool is used.
