Remove use of mmap for random reads

Browse Source 
Summary:
Reads via mmap on concurrent workloads are much slower than pread.
For example on a 24-core server with storage that can do 100k IOPS or more
I can get no more than 10k IOPS with mmap reads and 32+ threads.

Test Plan: db_bench benchmarks
