This PR sets the release-23.2 branch to use the CRDB fork of etcd-io/raft, for porting fixes into it, and cherry-picks cockroachdb/raft/pull/3.

Related to #124804, #124820

Thanks for opening a backport.

Please check the backport criteria before merging:

  • Backports should only be created for serious
    issues
    or test-only changes.
  • Backports should not break backwards-compatibility.
  • Backports should change as little code as possible.
  • Backports should not change on-disk formats or node communication protocols.
  • Backports should not add new functionality (except as defined
    here).
  • Backports must not add, edit, or otherwise modify cluster versions; or add version gates.
  • All backports must be reviewed by the owning areas TL and one additional
    TL. For more information as to how that review should be conducted, please consult the backport
    policy
    .
If your backport adds new functionality, please ensure that the following additional criteria are satisfied:
  • There is a high priority need for the functionality that cannot wait until the next release and is difficult to address in another way.
  • The new functionality is additive-only and only runs for clusters which have specifically “opted in” to it (e.g. by a cluster setting).
  • New code is protected by a conditional check that is trivial to verify and ensures that it only runs for opt-in clusters. State changes must be further protected such that nodes running old binaries will not be negatively impacted by the new state (with a mixed version test added).
  • The PM and TL on the team that owns the changed code have signed off that the change obeys the above rules.
  • Your backport must be accompanied by a post to the appropriate Slack
    channel (#db-backports-point-releases or #db-backports-XX-X-release) for awareness and discussion.

Also, please add a brief release justification to the body of your PR to justify this
backport.

@nvanbenschoten Let's merge cockroachdb/raft#3 first, and then I will update this PR to also cherry-pick that fix.

This commit set the release-23.2 branch to use the CRDB fork of
etcd-io/raft, for cherry-picking fixes into it.

Epic: none
Release note: none
Config changes in this raft implementation require a safety constraint:
the leader must not append a config change if it hasn't applied all
config changes in its log.

The DisableConfChangeValidation flag disables this check under the
assumption that the state machine layer provides the equivalent
guarantee. However, it is hard to argue that this is true in split
leaseholder/leader scenarios.

This commit re-enables this check, to bring the safety back. The other
two state-machine-level checks concerned with entering and leaving joint
configs can still be disabled.
