[vc] split tables into predefined number of tablets

When a new table is created, YugabyteDB starts with a single
tablet that handles ALL initial writes. Auto-splitting only kicks in after
the tablet reaches a size threshold (~1 GB by default), meaning the first
N transactions all funnel through one tablet on one tserver — creating a
severe bottleneck during the critical warm-up phase.

By pre-splitting tables at CREATE TABLE time (e.g., SPLIT INTO 3 TABLETS
for a 3-node cluster), data is hash-distributed across all tservers from
the very first write. This converts cold-start throughput from
single-tserver-bound to cluster-wide from block 1.

This applies to all three table types: metadata, tx_status, and
per-namespace state tables (ns_*). The setting auto-detects the DB backend
and is silently ignored on PostgreSQL, which has no tablet concept.
