This adds tracking of the instant of the last write to open buffer segment and methods to the table buffer to compute the estimated memory size of it.
These will be used by a background task that will continuously check to see if tables should be persisted ahead of time to free up buffer memory space.
Originally, I had hoped to have the size tracking happen as the buffer was built so that returning the size would be zero cost (i.e. just returning a value), but I found in different kinds of testing that I wasn't able to get something that was even close to accurate. So for now it will use this more expensive computed method and we'll check on this periodically (every couple of seconds) to see when to persist.

This is the first bit of work for #24956
