This change updates permissions semantics related to creating and managing changefeeds.

Summary: See release note.

Additional Details:

Creating Changefeeds
Before this change, to create a changefeed, these checks were made in order:
(a) If the user has `CONTROLCHANGEFEED`, then they require `SELECT` on all targeted
      tables
(b) Otherwise, the user requires  `CHANGEFEED` on all targeted tables
With this change, these checks are updated:
(a) If the user has `CONTROLCHANGEFEED`, then they require `SELECT` on all targeted
      tables. Note: creating a changefeed this way will now produce a deprecation notice.
(b) If the changefeed is a core changefeed, they require `SELECT` on all targeted tables
(c) Otherwise, the user requires `CHANGEFEED` on all targeted tables. Note: If
     `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` (disabled by default) is set to true,
     then the user will only be able to create a changefeed into an external connection which they
     have the `USAGE` privilege on.

Managing Changefeeds
Before this change, to manage a changefeed job `J` (defined a viewing, pausing, resuming, and canceling), a user `U` could do so if they met at least one of the following conditions:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for SHOW JOBS)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has `CONTROLJOB`
With this change, the conditions are updated:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for `SHOW JOBS` or `SHOW CHANGEFEED JOBS`)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has `CONTROLJOB`
(d) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, `J` is a changefeed job, and `U` has `CHANGEFEED` on targeted tables

Altering Changefeeds
Before this change, permissions related to altering changefeeds with `ALTER CHANGEFEED` were not well explicitly defined (we did not have tests to assert its behavior, but there were some permissions checks regardless). Basically, a user needed access to view a job (ie. look up it’s job ID via `SHOW JOBS`) and they needed to be able to create a new job. After all, `ALTER CHANGEFEED` is essentially the same as creating a new job and stopping the old one.

With this change, the same rules apply: the user needs to be able to access the existing job and to be able to create a new changefeed with the new rules introduced in this change respectively.

Release note (enterprise change):

The `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role option will be deprecated in the future (see cockroachdb#94757). With this change, usages of `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` will come with a deprecation warning. Its existing behavior (see rules for creating changefeeds above) remains the same.

The `SELECT` and `CHANGEFEED` privileges will be used for changefeeds henceforth:

The `SELECT` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run core changefeeds against them.

The `CHANGEFEED` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run enterprise changefeeds on them, and also manage the underlying changefeed job (ie. view, pause, cancel, and resume the job). Notably, a new cluster setting `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` is added and set to `false` by default. Enabling this setting restricts users with `CHANGEFEED` on a set of tables to create enterprise changefeeds into external connections only. To use a given external connection, a user typically needs the `USAGE` privilege on it.

Note `ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES` can be used with both `CHANGEFEED` and `SELECT` to assign course-grained permissions (ie. assign permissions to all tables in a schema rather than manually assign them for each table).

Release note (enterprise change):

The `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role option will be deprecated in the future (see cockroachdb#94757). With this change, usages of `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` will come with a deprecation warning. Its existing behavior (see rules for creating changefeeds above) remains the same.

The `SELECT` and `CHANGEFEED` privileges will be used for changefeeds henceforth:

The `SELECT` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run core changefeeds against them.

The `CHANGEFEED` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run enterprise changefeeds on them, and also manage the underlying changefeed job (ie. view, pause, cancel, and resume the job). Notably, a new cluster setting `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` is added and set to `false` by default. Enabling this setting restricts users with `CHANGEFEED` on a set of tables to create enterprise changefeeds into external connections only. To use a given external connection, a user typically needs the `USAGE` privilege on it.

Note `ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES` can be used with both both the `CHANGEFEED` and `SELECT` privileges to assign coarse-grained permissions (ie. assign permissions to all tables in a schema rather than manually assign them for each table).

Note `ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES` can be used with both the `CHANGEFEED` and `SELECT` privileges to assign course-grained permissions (ie. assign permissions to all tables in a schema rather than manually assign them for each table).

Before this change, to create a changefeed, these checks were made in order:
(a) If the user has the `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role, then they require the `SELECT`privilege
     on all targeted tables
(b) Otherwise, the user requires  the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on all targeted tables
With this change, these checks are updated:
(a) If the user has the `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role, then they require the `SELECT`
     privilege on all targeted tables. Note: creating a changefeed this way will now produce a
     deprecation notice.
(b) If the changefeed is a core changefeed, they require the `SELECT` privilege on all targeted
     tables
(c) Otherwise, the user requires the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on all targeted tables. Note: If
     `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` (disabled by default) is set to true,
     then the user will only be able to create a changefeed into an external connection which they
     have the `USAGE` privilege on.

Before this change, to manage a changefeed job `J` (defined a viewing, pausing, resuming, and canceling), a user `U` could do so if they met at least one of the following conditions:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for SHOW JOBS)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has the `CONTROLJOB` role
With this change, the conditions are updated:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for `SHOW JOBS` or `SHOW
     CHANGEFEED JOBS`)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has the `CONTROLJOB` role
(d) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, `J` is a changefeed job, and `U` has
     the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on targeted tables

Before this change, permissions related to altering changefeeds with `ALTER CHANGEFEED` were not explicitly defined (we did not have tests to assert its behavior, but there were some permissions checks regardless). Basically, a user needed access to view a job (ie. look up it’s job ID via `SHOW JOBS`) and they needed to be able to create a new job. After all, `ALTER CHANGEFEED` is essentially the same as creating a new job after stopping the old one.

With this change, the same rules apply: the user needs to be able to access the existing job and to be able to create a new changefeed with the new rules introduced in this change respectively.

(d) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, `J` is a changefeed job, and `U` has
     the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on targeted tables

Before this change, permissions related to altering changefeeds with `ALTER CHANGEFEED` were not explicitly defined (we did not have tests to assert its behavior, but there were some permissions checks regardless). Basically, a user needed access to view a job (ie. look up it’s job ID via `SHOW JOBS`) and they needed to be able to create a new job. After all, `ALTER CHANGEFEED` is essentially the same as creating a new job after stopping the old one.

With this change, the same rules apply: the user needs to be able to access the existing job and to be able to create a new changefeed with the new rules introduced in this change respectively.

Release note (enterprise change):

The `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role option will be deprecated in the future (see cockroachdb#94757). With this change, usages of `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` will come with a deprecation warning. Its existing behavior (see rules for creating changefeeds above) remains the same.

The `SELECT` and `CHANGEFEED` privileges will be used for changefeeds henceforth:

The `SELECT` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run core changefeeds against them.

The `CHANGEFEED` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run enterprise changefeeds on them, and also manage the underlying changefeed job (ie. view, pause, cancel, and resume the job). Notably, a new cluster setting `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` is added and set to `false` by default. Enabling this setting restricts users with `CHANGEFEED` on a set of tables to create enterprise changefeeds into external connections only. To use a given external connection, a user typically needs the `USAGE` privilege on it.

Note `ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES` can be used with both both the `CHANGEFEED` and `SELECT` privileges to assign coarse-grained permissions (ie. assign permissions to all tables in a schema rather than manually assign them for each table).

93301: sql,backupccl: set system.role_members ID columns to NOT NULL r=stevendanna,rafiss a=andyyang890

This patch sets the newly added `role_id` and `member_id` columns in
`system.role_members` to be NOT NULL. It also changes the `RESTORE`
logic to be able to handle the case when restoring from a backup where
the `system.role_members` table did not have the columns.

94796: changefeedccl: add new fine-grained permissions  r=jayshrivastava a=jayshrivastava

This change updates permissions semantics related to creating and managing changefeeds.

### Summary
The `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role option will be deprecated in the future (see #94757). With this change, usages of `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` will come with a deprecation warning. Its existing behavior (see rules for creating changefeeds below) remains the same.

The `SELECT` and `CHANGEFEED` privileges will be used for changefeeds henceforth:

The `SELECT` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run core changefeeds against them.

The `CHANGEFEED` privilege on a set of tables allows a user to run enterprise changefeeds on them, and also manage the underlying changefeed job (ie. view, pause, cancel, and resume the job). Notably, a new cluster setting `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` is added and set to `false` by default. Enabling this setting restricts users with `CHANGEFEED` on a set of tables to create enterprise changefeeds into external connections only. To use a given external connection, a user typically needs the `USAGE` privilege on it.

Note `ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES` can be used with both the `CHANGEFEED` and `SELECT` privileges to assign course-grained permissions (ie. assign permissions to all tables in a schema rather than manually assign them for each table).

### Additional Details

#### Creating a Changefeed

Before this change, to create a changefeed, these checks were made in order:
(a) If the user has the `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role, then they require the `SELECT`privilege 
     on all targeted tables
(b) Otherwise, the user requires  the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on all targeted tables
With this change, these checks are updated:
(a) If the user has the `CONTROLCHANGEFEED` role, then they require the `SELECT` 
     privilege on all targeted tables. Note: creating a changefeed this way will now produce a 
     deprecation notice.
(b) If the changefeed is a core changefeed, they require the `SELECT` privilege on all targeted 
     tables
(c) Otherwise, the user requires the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on all targeted tables. Note: If
     `changefeed.permissions.enforce_external_connections` (disabled by default) is set to true,
     then the user will only be able to create a changefeed into an external connection which they
     have the `USAGE` privilege on.

#### Managing a Changefeed

Before this change, to manage a changefeed job `J` (defined a viewing, pausing, resuming, and canceling), a user `U` could do so if they met at least one of the following conditions:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for SHOW JOBS)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has the `CONTROLJOB` role
With this change, the conditions are updated:
(a) `U` is an admin
(b) `U` is not an admin and `J` is owned by `U`  (only for `SHOW JOBS` or `SHOW 
     CHANGEFEED JOBS`)
(c) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, and `U` has the `CONTROLJOB` role
(d) `U` is not an admin, `J` is not owned by an admin, `J` is a changefeed job, and `U` has 
     the `CHANGEFEED` privilege on targeted tables

#### Altering a Changefeed

Before this change, permissions related to altering changefeeds with `ALTER CHANGEFEED` were not explicitly defined (we did not have tests to assert its behavior, but there were some permissions checks regardless). Basically, a user needed access to view a job (ie. look up it’s job ID via `SHOW JOBS`) and they needed to be able to create a new job. After all, `ALTER CHANGEFEED` is essentially the same as creating a new job after stopping the old one.

With this change, the same rules apply: the user needs to be able to access the existing job and to be able to create a new changefeed with the new rules introduced in this change respectively.

94968: server: tenant access to node diagnostics and metrics r=abarganier,knz a=dhartunian

Previously, tenants were unable to access cluster-level node information, and could not make timeseries queries. This is due to the fact that tenants do not have access to gossip data and cannot make aritrary KV requests. Any of these requests must go through the `kvtenant.Connector` interface which authorizes these requests and proxies them over gRPC to the KV server.

Future changes will gate these abilities behind Tenant privileges.

Is there a strong reason to actually remove it entirely? The role options are deprecated, but removing it has the potential to break tooling that is relying on them, and the role options code is not really causing any significant amount of tech debt. (Or if it is, I'm happy to be corrected.)

I don't think it needs to completely be removed from the code or tests. We should remove it from docs if we don't want people to build new functionality/systems using it.

Please don't remove.
