This extracts the WAL from the metrics storage so that it can be used for other data types such as logs. This also changes the on-disk format to support compressions, checksums and better memory utilization.
This is significantly faster and more efficient from a throughput and disk size perspective.

This extracts the wal that was used for metrics into a more generic framework that can be used for metrics, logs or other data. The existing wal segments have been converted to a compressed binary format with checksum and compressions. This significantly reduces disk IO, storage size and increases ingestion throughput by 4x.
