Summary:
EndWriteStall has a data race: `queue_.empty()` is checked outside of the
mutex, so once we enter the critical section another thread may already have
cleared the list, and accessing the `front()` is undefined behavior (and causes
interesting crashes under high concurrency).
This PR fixes the bug, and also rewrites the logic to make it easier to reason
about it. It also fixes another subtle bug: if some writers are stalled and
`SetBufferSize(0)` is called, which disables the WBM, the writer are not
unblocked because of an early `enabled()` check in `EndWriteStall()`.
It doesn't significantly change the locking behavior, as before writers won't
lock unless entering a stall condition, and `FreeMem` almost always locks if
stalling is allowed, but that is inevitable with the current design. Liveness is
guaranteed by the fact that if some writes are blocked, eventually all writes
will be blocked due to `stall_active_`, and eventually all memory is freed.
While at it, do a couple of optimizations:
- In `WBMStallInterface::Signal()` signal the CV only after releasing the
lock. Signaling under the lock is a common pitfall, as it causes the woken-up
thread to immediately go back to sleep because the mutex is still locked by
the awaker.
- Move all allocations and deallocations outside of the lock.

Summary:
Context:
To help cap various memory usage by a single limit of the block cache capacity, we charge the memory usage through inserting/releasing dummy entries in the block cache. CacheReservationManager is such a class (non thread-safe) responsible for inserting/removing dummy entries to reserve cache space for memory used by the class user.
- Refactored the inner private class CacheRep of WriteBufferManager into public CacheReservationManager class for reusability such as for https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8428
- Encapsulated implementation details of cache key generation and dummy entries insertion/release in cache reservation as discussed in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8506#discussion_r666550838
- Consolidated increase/decrease cache reservation into one API - UpdateCacheReservation.
- Adjusted the previous dummy entry release algorithm in decreasing cache reservation to be loop-releasing dummy entries to stay symmetric to dummy entry insertion algorithm
- Made the previous dummy entry release algorithm in delayed decrease mode more aggressive for better decreasing cache reservation when memory used is less likely to increase back.
Previously, the algorithms only release 1 dummy entries when new_mem_used < 3/4 * cache_allocated_size_ and cache_allocated_size_ - kSizeDummyEntry > new_mem_used.
Now, the algorithms loop-releases as many dummy entries as possible when new_mem_used < 3/4 * cache_allocated_size_.
- Updated WriteBufferManager's test cases to adapt to changes on the release algorithm mentioned above and left comment for some test cases for clarity
- Replaced the previous cache key prefix generation (utilizing object address related to the cache client) with one that utilizes Cache->NewID() to prevent cache-key collision among dummy entry clients sharing the same cache.
The specific collision we are preventing happens when the object address is reused for a new cache-key prefix while the old cache-key using that same object address in its prefix still exists in the cache. This could happen due to that, under LRU cache policy, there is a possible delay in releasing a cache entry after the cache client object owning that cache entry get deallocated. In this case, the object address related to the cache client object can get reused for other client object to generate a new cache-key prefix.
This prefix generation can be made obsolete after Peter's unification of all the code generating cache key, mentioned in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8506#discussion_r667265255

Summary:
This change gathers and publishes statistics about the
kinds of items in block cache. This is especially important for
profiling relative usage of cache by index vs. filter vs. data blocks.
It works by iterating over the cache during periodic stats dump
(InternalStats, stats_dump_period_sec) or on demand when
DB::Get(Map)Property(kBlockCacheEntryStats), except that for
efficiency and sharing among column families, saved data from
the last scan is used when the data is not considered too old.
The new information can be seen in info LOG, for example:
Block cache LRUCache@0x7fca62229330 capacity: 95.37 MB collections: 8 last_copies: 0 last_secs: 0.00178 secs_since: 0

Solution detail - We need some way to flag what kind of blocks each
entry belongs to, preferably without changing the Cache API.
One of the complications is that Cache is a general interface that could
have other users that don't adhere to whichever convention we decide
on for keys and values. Or we would pay for an extra field in the Handle
that would only be used for this purpose.
This change uses a back-door approach, the deleter, to indicate the
"role" of a Cache entry (in addition to the value type, implicitly).
This has the added benefit of ensuring proper code origin whenever we
recognize a particular role for a cache entry; if the entry came from
some other part of the code, it will use an unrecognized deleter, which
we simply attribute to the "Misc" role.
An internal API makes for simple instantiation and automatic
registration of Cache deleters for a given value type and "role".
Another internal API, CacheEntryStatsCollector, solves the problem of
caching the results of a scan and sharing them, to ensure scans are
neither excessive nor redundant so as not to harm Cache performance.
Because code is added to BlocklikeTraits, it is pulled out of
block_based_table_reader.cc into its own file.
This is a reformulation of https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8276, without the type checking option
(could still be added), and with actual stat gathering.

Summary:
When WriteBufferManager is shared across DBs and column families
to maintain memory usage under a limit, OOMs have been observed when flush cannot
finish but writes continuously insert to memtables.
In order to avoid OOMs, when memory usage goes beyond buffer_limit_ and DBs tries to write,
this change will stall incoming writers until flush is completed and memory_usage
drops.
Design: Stall condition: When total memory usage exceeds WriteBufferManager::buffer_size_
(memory_usage() >= buffer_size_) WriterBufferManager::ShouldStall() returns true.
DBImpl first block incoming/future writers by calling write_thread_.BeginWriteStall()
(which adds dummy stall object to the writer's queue).
Then DB is blocked on a state State::Blocked (current write doesn't go
through). WBStallInterface object maintained by every DB instance is added to the queue of
WriteBufferManager.
If multiple DBs tries to write during this stall, they will also be
blocked when check WriteBufferManager::ShouldStall() returns true.
End Stall condition: When flush is finished and memory usage goes down, stall will end only if memory
waiting to be flushed is less than buffer_size/2. This lower limit will give time for flush
to complete and avoid continous stalling if memory usage remains close to buffer_size.
WriterBufferManager::EndWriteStall() is called,
which removes all instances from its queue and signal them to continue.
Their state is changed to State::Running and they are unblocked. DBImpl
then signal all incoming writers of that DB to continue by calling
write_thread_.EndWriteStall() (which removes dummy stall object from the
queue).
DB instance creates WBMStallInterface which is an interface to block and
signal DBs during stall.
When DB needs to be blocked or signalled by WriteBufferManager,
state_for_wbm_ state is changed accordingly (RUNNING or BLOCKED).

Summary:
Dummy cache size of 1MB is too large for small block sizes. Our GetDefaultCacheShardBits() use min_shard_size = 512L * 1024L to determine number of shards, so 1MB will excceeds the size of the whole shard and make the cache excceeds the budget.
Change it to 256KB accordingly.
There shouldn't be obvious performance impact, since inserting a cache entry every 256KB of memtable inserts is still infrequently enough.

Summary:
Improve write buffer manager in several ways:
1. Size is tracked when arena block is allocated, rather than every allocation, so that it can better track actual memory usage and the tracking overhead is slightly lower.
2. We start to trigger memtable flush when 7/8 of the memory cap hits, instead of 100%, and make 100% much harder to hit.
3. Allow a cache object to be passed into buffer manager and the size allocated by memtable can be costed there. This can help users have one single memory cap across block cache and memtable.
