Reputation updates during repair currently consumes a lot of database
resources. Sometimes increasing the rate of repair is more important
than auditing a node based on whether they have or don't have the
correct piece during repair. This is the job of the audit service.
This commit is to implement an intermediate solution from this issue: https://github.com/storj/storj/issues/5089
This commit does not address the more in-depth fix discussed here: https://github.com/storj/storj/issues/4939

As part of the effort of splitting out the auditor workers to their own
process, we are transitioning the communication between the auditor
chore and the verification workers to a queue implemented in the
database, rather than the sequence of in-memory queues we used to use.
This logical database is safely partitionable from the rest of
satelliteDB.

We have an alert on `repair_too_many_nodes_failed` which fires too
frequently. Every time so far, it has been because of a network blip of
some nature on the satellite side.
Satellite operators are expected to have other means in place for
alerting on network problems and fixing them, so it's not necessary for
the repair framework to act in that way.
Instead, in this change, we change the way that
`repair_too_many_nodes_failed` works. When a repair fails, we collect
piece fetch errors by type and determine from them whether it looks like
we are having network problems (most errors are connection failures,
possibly also some successful connections which subsequently time out)
or whether something else has happened.
We will now only emit `repair_too_many_nodes_failed` when the outcome
does not look like a network failure. In the network failure case, we
will instead emit `repair_suspected_network_problem`.

This structure is entirely unused within the audit module, and is only
used by repair code. Accordingly, this change moves the structure from
audit code to repair code.
Also, we take the opportunity here to rename the structure to something
less generic.

This is in response to community feedback that our existing reputation
calculation is too likely to disqualify storage nodes unfairly with
extreme swings up and down.
For details and analysis, please see the data_loss_vs_dq_chance_sim.py
tool, the "tuning reputation further.ipynb" Jupyter notebook in the
storj/datascience repository, and the discussion at
https://forum.storj.io/t/tuning-audit-scoring/14084
In brief: changing the lambda and initial-alpha parameters in this way
causes the swings in reputation to be smaller and less likely to put a
node past the disqualification threshold unfairly.
Note: this change will cause a one-time reset of all (non-disqualified)
node reputations, because the new initial alpha value of 1000 is
dramatically different, and the disqualification threshold is going to
be much higher.

I don't know why the go people thought this was a good idea, because
this automatic reformatting is bound to do the wrong thing sometimes,
which is very annoying. But I don't see a way to turn it off, so best to
get this change out of the way.

For nodes in excluded areas, we don't necessarily want to remove them
from the pointer, but we do want to increase the number of pieces in the
segment in case those excluded area nodes go down. To do that, we
increase the number of pieces repaired by the number of pieces in
excluded areas.

inconsistency
The original design had a flaw which can potentially cause discrepancy
for nodes reputation status between reputations table and nodes table.
In the event of a failure(network issue, db failure, satellite failure, etc.)
happens between update to reputations table and update to nodes table, data
can be out of sync.
This PR tries to fix above issue by passing through node's reputation from
the beginning of an audit/repair(this data is from nodes table) to the next
update in reputation service. If the updated reputation status from the service
is different from the existing node status, the service will try to update nodes
table. In the case of a failure, the service will be able to try update nodes
table again since it can see the discrepancy of the data. This will allow
both tables to be in-sync eventually.

If satellite can't find enough nodes to successfully download a segment,
it probably is not the fault of storage nodes.

work
Since we have changed the repair worker to also mark a node as audit
failure if they return a not found error, we should ignore expired
segments when possible

At some point we moved metabase package outside Metainfo
but we didn't do that for satellite structure. This change
refactors only tests.
When uplink will be adjusted we can remove old entries in
Metainfo struct.

Sometimes we see timeouts from DNS lookups when trying to do
repair GETs. Solution: try using node's last IP and port first.
If we can't connect, retry with DNS lookup.

We want to use StreamID/Position to identify injured
segment. As it is hard to alter existing injuredsegments
table we are adding a new table that will replace existing
one. Old table will be dropped later.

This is part of metaloop refactoring. We plan to remove
irreparable at some point but there was not time for it.
Now instead refatoring it for segmentloop its just easier
to drop it.
Later we still need to drop table with migration step.

metabase has become a central concept and it's more suitable for it to
be directly nested under satellite rather than being part of metainfo.
metainfo is going to be the "endpoint" logic for handling requests.

It's impossible to time correctly this check. The segment may expire
just at the time we upload the repaired pieces to new storage nodes.
They will reject this as expired and the repair will fail.
Also, we penalize storage nodes with audit failure only if they fail
piece hash verification, i.e. return incorrect data, but only if they
have already deleted the piece.
So, it would be best if the repair service does not care about object
expiration at all. This is a responsibility of another service.
Removing this check will also simplify how we migrate this code
correctly to the metabase.

Rather than having a single repair override value, we will now support
repair override values based on a particular segment's RS scheme.
The new format for RS override values is
"k/o/n-override,k/o/n-override..."

Make metainfo.RSConfig a valid pflag config value. This allows us to
configure the RSConfig as a string like k/m/o/n-shareSize, which makes
having multiple supported RS schemes easier in the future.
RS-related config values that are no longer needed have been removed
(MinTotalThreshold, MaxTotalThreshold, MaxBufferMem, Verify).

* The audit worker wants to get items from the queue and process them.
* The audit chore wants to create new queues and swap them in when the
old queue has been processed.
This change adds a "Queues" struct which handles the concurrency
issues around the worker fetching a queue and the chore swapping a new
queue in. It simplifies the logic of the "Queue" struct to its bare
bones, so that it behaves like a normal queue with no need to understand
the details of swapping and worker/chore interactions.

What:
Use the github.com/jackc/pgx postgresql driver in place of
github.com/lib/pq.
Why:
github.com/lib/pq has some problems with error handling and context
cancellations (i.e. it might even issue queries or DML statements more
than once! see https://github.com/lib/pq/issues/939). The
github.com/jackx/pgx library appears not to have these problems, and
also appears to be better engineered and implemented (in particular, it
doesn't use "exceptions by panic"). It should also give us some
performance improvements in some cases, and even more so if we can use
it directly instead of going through the database/sql layer.

Sometimes nodes who have gracefully exited will still be holding pieces
according to the satellite. This has some unintended side effects
currently, such as nodes getting disqualified after having successfully
exited.
* When the audit reporter attempts to update node stats, do not update
stats (alpha, beta, suspension, disqualification) if the node has
finished graceful exit (audit/reporter_test.go TestGracefullyExitedNotUpdated)
* Treat gracefully exited nodes as "not reputable" so that the repairer
and checker do not count them as healthy (overlay/statdb_test.go
TestKnownUnreliableOrOffline, repair/repair_test.go
TestRepairGracefullyExited)
