currently crawler waits for an entire readdir call to
return until it processes usage, lifecycle, replication
and healing - instead we should pass the applicator all
the way down to avoid building any special stack for all
the contents in a single directory.
This allows for
- no need to remember the entire list of entries per directory
before applying the required functions
- no need to wait for entire readdir() call to finish before
applying the required functions
To avoid large delays in metacache cleanup, use rename
instead of recursive delete calls, renames are cheaper
move the content to minioMetaTmpBucket and then cleanup
this folder once in 24hrs instead.
If the new cache can replace an existing one, we should
let it replace since that is currently being saved anyways,
this avoids pile up of 1000's of metacache entires for
same listing calls that are not necessary to be stored
on disk.
Additional cases handled
- fix address situations where healing is not
triggered on failed writes and deletes.
- consider object exists during listing when
metadata can be successfully decoded.
Do listings with prefix filter when bloom filter is dirty.
This will forward the prefix filter to the lister which will make it
only scan the folders/objects with the specified prefix.
If we have a clean bloom filter we try to build a more generally
useful cache so in that case, we will list all objects/folders.
Add shortcut for `APN/1.0 Veeam/1.0 Backup/10.0`
It requests unique blocks with a specific prefix. We skip
scanning the parent directory for more objects matching the prefix.
Add trashcan that keeps recently updated lists after bucket deletion.
All caches were deleted once a bucket was deleted, so caches still running would report errors. Now they are canceled.
Fix `.minio.sys` not being transient.
* Fix caches having EOF marked as a failure.
* Simplify cache updates.
* Provide context for checkMetacacheState failures.
* Log 499 when the client disconnects.

Gist of improvements:
* Cross-server caching and listing will use the same data across servers and requests.
* Lists can be arbitrarily resumed at a constant speed.
* Metadata for all files scanned is stored for streaming retrieval.
* The existing bloom filters controlled by the crawler is used for validating caches.
* Concurrent requests for the same data (or parts of it) will not spawn additional walkers.
* Listing a subdirectory of an existing recursive cache will use the cache.
* All listing operations are fully streamable so the number of objects in a bucket no
longer dictates the amount of memory.
* Listings can be handled by any server within the cluster.
* Caches are cleaned up when out of date or superseded by a more recent one.
