Summary:
Ref T7199. These were a bad idea which got copy-pasted a bunch.
- There is zero reason to ever set these to different things.
- Unsurprisingly, I don't know of any install which has them set to different things.
Unless I've completely forgotten about it, this option was not motivated by some obscure business need, it was just a bad decision which didn't catch anyone's attention at the time.
We partially remedied the mistake at some point by introducing `metamta.reply-handler-domain`, which works as a default for all applications, but never cleaned this mess up.
Test Plan: Sent some mail from applications, verified it picked up appropraite reply handler domains.

Summary:
Fixes T5843. File storage engines use a very old "selector" mechanism which makes them difficult to extend.
This mechanism predates widespread use of `PhutilSymbolLoader` to discover available implementations at runtime. Runtime discovery has generally proven more flexible and easier to use than explicit selection (although it sometimes needs more UI to support it in cases where order or enabled/disabled flags can not be directly determined).
Use a modern runtime discovery mechanism instead of an explicit selector. This might break any installs which subclassed the `Selector`, but I believe almost no such installs exist, and they'll receive a meaningful exception upon upgrading (any custom engines will no longer implement all of the required methods).
Looking forward, this modernizes infrastructure to prepare for new "virtual" chunked-storage engines, with the eventual goal of supporting very large file uploads and data import into the Phacility cluster.
This uses D12051 to add UI to make it easier to understand the state of storage engines.
Test Plan:
Used new UI panel to assess storage engines:
{F336270}
- Uploaded a small file, saw it go to MySQL engine.
- Uploaded a larger file, saw it go to S3 engine.

Fixes T7352. This reduces the memory footprint for instances by combining these two similar daemons into one daemon which handles the responsibilities of both.
The fit isn't 100% perfect here but it's pretty close, and the GC daemon is fairly trivial.
Test Plan:
- Adjusted all the numbers to small numbers (5 second sleep, 120 second GC length).
- Added a ton of logging.
- Started trigger daemon.
- Saw it run a GC cycle.
- Saw it reschedule another cycle after 120 seconds (adjusted down from 4 hours).
- Reverted all the logging/small numbers.
- Ran `bin/phd start`, saw stable trigger daemon running.
- Grepped for removed daemon class name.

- Examined PID file to see options were passed.
- I'm defaulting this off (0 reserve) and making it a flag rather than an option because it's a very advanced feature which is probably not useful outside of instancing.

Summary: Fixes T7088. Mainly this updates the documentation but I also snuck in tweaking how the domain reply handler is built. This does two main things -- makes the behavior consistent as some applications who didn't override this behavior would send out emails with reply tos AND makes it easier for us to deprecate the custom domain thing on a per application basis, which is just silly. On that note, the main documentation doesn't get into how this can be overridden, though I left in that mini blurb on the config setting itself. We could deprecate this harder and LOCK things if you want as well.

Fixes T6741. This allows Almanac services to be locked from the CLI. Locked services (and their bindings, interfaces and devices) can not be edited. This serves two similar use cases:
- For normal installs, you can protect cluster configuration from an attacker who compromises an account (or generally harden services which are intended to be difficult to edit).
- For Phacility, we can lock externally-managed instance cluster configuration without having to pull any spooky tricks.
