Summary:
Converts the RPC stack to use Cap'n Proto for serialization instead of
boost. There are still some traces of boost in other places in the code,
but most of it is removed. A future diff should cleanup boost for good.
The RPC API is now changed to be more flexible with regards to how
serialize data. This makes the simplest cases a bit more verbose, but
allows complex serialization code to be correctly written instead of
relying on hacks. (For reference, look for the old serialization of
`PullRpc` which had a nasty pointer hacks to inject accessors in
`TypedValue`.)
Since RPC messages were uselessly modeled via inheritance of Message
base class, that class is now removed. Furthermore, that approach
doesn't really work with Cap'n Proto. Instead, each message type is
required to have some type information. This can be automated, so
`define-rpc` has been added to LCP, which hopefully simplifies defining
new RPC request and response messages.
Specify Cap'n Proto schema ID in cmake
This preserves Cap'n Proto generated typeIds across multiple generations
of capnp schemas through LCP. It is imperative that typeId stays the
same to ensure that different compilations of Memgraph may communicate
via RPC in a distributed cluster.
Use CLOS for meta information on C++ types in LCP
Since some structure slots and functions have started to repeat
themselves, it makes sense to model C++ meta information via Common Lisp
Object System.

Summary:
Previously, the RPC stack used the network stack only to receive messages. The
messages were then added to a separate queue that was processed by different
thread pools. This design was inefficient because there was a lock when
inserting and getting messages from the common queue.
This diff removes the need for separate thread pools by utilising the new
network stack design. This is possible because the new network stack allows
full processing of the network request without blocking the whole queue.

Summary: See above. The unit test creates two clients on demand so I guess it works.

Summary:
Rpc client wasn't thread safe and required a lock before each rpc call.
The locking functionality is now incorporated in Rpc client.

Summary: In this diff I just wanted to fix tests' flakyness. We can discuss if we want to always pass endpoint as an argument and never pass address:port pair explicitly. However if we decide that, I will do that change in another diff.
