Issue observed
==============

A `session clear` test occasionaly fails on the CI (very rarely, and
more often on PowerPC executors for some reason) with babeltrace
reporting that the live connection was closed by the remote side:

Cause
=====

Looking at the relay daemon logs, it appears that the live client
requests an enumeration of the available streams while a rotation is
ongoing (clear).

Ultimately, this results in the relay daemon attempting to open a
non-existing file:
  PERROR - 16:33:59.242388809 [734380/734387]: Failed to open fs handle to ust/uid/1000/64-bit/chan_0, open() returned: No such file or directory (in fd_tracker_open_fs_handle() at fd-tracker.c:550)

The logs indicate that this file existed at some point. However, it
was unlinked and its newest instance was created in a trace chunk
named "20200727T163359-0400-1".

This chunk name is a temporary name used until the original trace
chunk can be unlinked (cleared) and the newest can be moved in its
place.

The file is being opened as part of the creation of a viewer stream
when make_viewer_stream() fails to find it. This implies that, somehow,
an outdated trace chunk is being used to open the viewer stream's file.

The reason why is that make_viewer_stream is called with the
viewer session's current trace chunk. During a rotation, the use of the
viewer session's current trace chunk is touchy due to the way the
switch-over to a new chunk is handled.

How viewer session/stream trace chunks are rotated
--------------------------------------------------

The viewer polls the relay daemon for new data/metadata to consume using
the `GET_NEXT_INDEX` and `GET_METADATA` commands. Both commands will
indicate to the viewer that it should try again later if a rotation is
ongoing on the "side" of the relay session.

When a rotation is not ongoing, the relay compares the `id` of the
target viewer stream's trace chunk with the relay session's current
trace chunk. If those `id`s don't match, the viewer session's current
trace chunk is then updated to a copy of the relay session's trace
chunk. The viewer stream's files are then closed and re-opened in the
context of the viewer session's now-updated trace chunk.

While the live protocol allows `GET_NEXT_INDEX` and `GET_METADATA` to
communicate to the viewer that it should "retry" later, there is no such
provisions made for the paths that lead to the creation of the viewer
streams. This means viewer streams must be created even if a rotation is
ongoing.

Solution
========

If a rotation is ongoing at the moment of the creation of the viewer
streams, we wish to use a copy of the trace chunk being used by the
relay stream. This way, we can be sure that the streams' files exist.

It is okay for viewer streams to hold references to different copies of
the trace chunks since no user-visible actions are performed when the
reference to those chunks is released. This is different from relay
streams where the detection of the completion of a rotation is done when
the last relay stream releases its reference to a specific trace chunk
instance.

Known drawbacks
===============

None beyond a slight increase (temporary until the next rotation) in the
number of FDs used when a client connects during a session rotation.

Note
====

Since make_viewer_streams now acts on relay and viewer counterparts of
the session and stream objects, the various variables are prefixed with
`relay` and `viewer` to make the code easier to understand.

The locking period of the relay stream is extended to most of the
iteration in make_viewer_stream() rather than only in
viewer_stream_create(). As a result, callers of viewer_stream_create()
must hold the relay stream's lock.
