Analogous to the schema version number in the CurrentSchemaVersion
table, store the current schema version in NoteDb as an int blob in
refs/meta/version in All-Projects. Version numbers start at 180, which
continues the numbering and class naming scheme from ReviewDb, plus a
gap to allow for a last few schema upgrades in the stable-2.16 branch.
Although NoteDb gives us the flexibility to do more interesting things
in terms of out-of-order or optional schema upgrades, this
implementation sticks to the old ReviewDb way of doing things with a
single monotonically increasing version.
The implementation is roughly similar to the ReviewDb implementation,
where we have NoteDbSchemaVersion{Check,Updater} classes to enforce that
the running server has been fully upgraded, and a simple loop run during
init to upgrade the schema. To make NoteDb migration tests pass with
GERRIT_NOTEDB=OFF, these only take effect when NoteDb is enabled at
setup time. In reality, this hack is short-lived, since we will be
removing ReviewDb support entirely quite soon.
The main difference in implementation is that we no longer construct
NoteDbSchemaVersions using Guice, and instead require a certain
constructor signature for implementations. Not constructing these via
Guice also allows us to do away with the chained
Provider<Schema_$PREVIOUS> constructor arguments. These historically
caused Guice performance problems, which is why they got converted to
Providers in the first place. Rather than preserve that hacky logic,
just don't use Guice. This is not such a painful amount of reflection.
For now, leave the ReviewDb schema upgrade code around, so technically
we can upgrade both ReviewDb and NoteDb schemas in a single binary. In
practice, however, a followup change should be able to completely delete
all old schema upgrade code.
No additional work is done in this series in order to accommodate any
last-minute schema upgrades on the stable-2.16 branch. In order to allow
admins to upgrade directly from 2.16, even if there are new upgrades in
2.16.1 or later, we will have to add idempotent NoteDb schema upgrade
implementations of those upgrades. This is a small amount of extra work,
but there should not be many of these. It also does not require any
additional support in this change.

Gerrit Code Review
Gerrit is a code review and project management tool for Git based projects.
Objective
Gerrit makes reviews easier by showing changes in a side-by-side display, and allowing inline comments to be added by any reviewer.
Gerrit simplifies Git based project maintainership by permitting any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, rather than requiring all approved changes to be merged in by hand by the project maintainer.
Documentation
For information about how to install and use Gerrit, refer to the documentation.

The instruction how to configure GerritForge/BinTray repositories is here
On Debian/Ubuntu run:
apt-get update & apt-get install gerrit=<version>-<release>
NOTE: release is a counter that starts with 1 and indicates the number of packages that have been released with the same version of the software.
On CentOS/RedHat run:
yum clean all && yum install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]
On Fedora run:
dnf clean all && dnf install gerrit-<version>[-<release>]
Use pre-built Gerrit images on Docker
Docker images of Gerrit are available on DockerHub
To run a CentOS 7 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-centos7[:version]
To run a Ubuntu 15.04 based Gerrit image:
docker run -p 8080:8080 gerritforge/gerrit-ubuntu15.04[:version]
NOTE: release is optional. Last released package of the version is installed if the release number is omitted.
