This implementation intentionally ignores the drain property of AMQP 1.0 flow control because local shovels does not use this feature, and no external component can "enable" it, so we can simply ignore it.

This introduces several changes for shovels for
4.2.0:mcmodulerabbit_queue_type) and the AMQP 1.0-inspired consumer and publisher side implementations that avoid using an AMQP 1.0 or AMQP 0-9-1 Erlang clientCluster-Local Shovel Type
This PR introduces a new shovel "protocol":
local. Instead of using an AMQP 1.0 or AMQP 0-9-1 Erlang client for consuming and re-publishing the messages, this shovel implementationuses various internal API modules, namely
rabbit_queue_type, and can skip network serialization and cross-protocol message conversion.For this reason, this shovel protocol can only be used to with a source or destination in the same cluster. However, the other part of shovel can still use AMQP 1.0 or AMQP 0-9-1.
A shovel can use the
localprotocol on both sides within the same cluster.Message Containers for Message Translation
This is self-explanatory: adopt the
mcmodule.AMQP 1.0 Message Immutability: a Potentially Breaking Change
AMQP 1.0 shovels modified message application property, even though it arguably should not.
Instead, we modify message annotations. This is a potentially breaking change: a number of metadata fields have been renamed.
