             Summary: Add metric and tracing event for scanned purgeable 
tombstones
                 Key: CASSANDRA-20132
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-20132
             Project: Apache Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Local/Other
            Reporter: Dmitry Konstantinov
            Assignee: Dmitry Konstantinov


Currently, Cassandra can read data from SSTables with tombstones and later drop 
them silently if the tombstones are older than gc_grace_seconds (aka purgeable 
tombstones). Such tombstones are not visible via readTombstoneHistogram metric, 
not reported in Cassandra logs if tombstone threshold is crossed and not 
mentioned in tracing events. As a result if a partition has a lot of purgeable 
tombstones we may have a slow read query without any signs why it is it slow. 

This suggested improvement adds:
1) a new metric which tracks number of such tombstones: 
PurgeableTombstoneScannedHistogram
2) a new tracing event: "Read {} purgeable tombstone cells" if number of such 
tombstones > 0
