Changelog: Fix | Feature: Redesign RevisionList for thread-safe, atomic, and distributed revision updates. This resolves critical concurrency issues and enables robust multi-server deployments.
Docs: This PR includes extensive documentation within the codebase: README_REVISIONLIST_REDESIGN.md. A separate PR will be opened in the Conan docs repo.

  • Refer to the issue that supports this Pull Request.
    This PR addresses the critical need for thread-safe revision updates with atomic persistence across distributed server instances, preventing data corruption and lost updates.
  • If the issue has missing info, explain the purpose/use case/pain/need that covers this Pull Request.
    The current RevisionList implementation suffers from:
    1. Race conditions and lost updates: Due to a lack of internal thread safety and non-atomic read-modify-write operations on disk.
    2. No distributed coordination: File-based locks are insufficient for multi-server deployments.
      This redesign introduces a multi-tier solution:
    • Tier 1 (Essential): Internal threading.RLock for RevisionList and atomic file operations in ServerDiskAdapter to ensure thread-safe, single-server updates.
    • Tier 2 (Recommended): Optimistic locking with version tracking and retry logic for enhanced reliability under high concurrency.
    • Tier 3 (Optional): Redis-based distributed locking for multi-server coordination, with graceful fallback.
  • I've read the Contributing guide.
  • I've followed the PEP8 style guides for Python code.
  • I've opened another PR in the Conan docs repo to the develop branch, documenting this one.
