Tile creation speedup PR

Bunch of PRs at various levels to speed up tile generation:

   -

   https://github.com/geosolutions-it/imageio-ext/pull/299 (sub-image
   encoding)
   -

   https://github.com/GeoWebCache/geowebcache/pull/1227 (improved
   concurrency)
   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7457
   -

      Enables the imageio-ext speedup
      -

      Encode first tile on the request thread, delegate the others to a
      secondary thread pool
      -

      Poor interaction with the mass-seed case, being worked on


Good stuff, thank you Mitchell Bösecke!

It has been a while since I've heard from him, we might have to complete
the development.

Problem with JMH tests. It should not be part of the quality test, because
the GitHub actions/jenkins is not reliable. For reference, GDAL is also
running performance tests, with 30% tolerance due to the unreliable
environment. See mail thread
https://www.mail-archive.com/gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org/msg39829.html

How to handle it:

   -

   @Ignore and let them be run interactively
   -

   Move them to the online profile?
   -

   Make yet another profile?
   -

   Add alongside other excludes:

Only two use cases in a large code base, likely to get forgotten…
mkdocs update

Collect the rst changes.

Idea:

   -

   Start from https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7462
   -

   Remove the mkdocs
   -

   Collect the RSTs only
   -

   Share the load of fixing the RSTs across various people
   -

   Backport the changes
   -

   Actually run the mkdocs
   -

   https://github.com/jodygarnett/translate



Here are the instructions for running translate script:

   1.

   https://jodygarnett.github.io/translate/translate/migrate/
   mkdocs_translate init
   mkdocs_translate scan
   mkdocs_translate migrate

   2.

   Common problems:
   1.

      Too much indenting (results in a block quote)
      2.

      Stray ```` results in the rest of the file being wrong

      3.

   Examples also from previous RST PR:
   
https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/7429/files#diff-7802f6ce973902c35df3d9c6670250c7191549c206ffbcccf20b6ae2582bb573L121


NetCDF dependency upgrade and backwards incompatibility

I am sorry Steve, it does look like this is an actual compatibility break
that cannot be addressed.

   -

   GRIB file configured in GeoServer 2.25 will not actually work in future
   GeoServer 2.26!
   -

   they changed 30-40 mapping tables in the library
   -

   name of the variable is constructed at runtime (not read from the file
   it is constructed from header and how time is understood)
   -

   Take down the layers and start from scratch; updates notes have
   instructions.


Can we provide an option in the upgrade guide to just hand-edit the files
instead? Only for single files…
