Summary:
This diff is addressing multiple things with a single goal -- to make RocksDB easier to use:
* Add some functions to Options that make RocksDB easier to tune.
* Add example code for both simple RocksDB and RocksDB with Column Families.
* Rewrite our README.md
Regarding Options, I took a stab at something we talked about for a long time:
* https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/permalink/563169950448190/
I added functions:
* IncreaseParallelism() -- easy, increases the thread pool and max_background_compactions
* OptimizeLevelStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- the easiest way to optimize rocksdb for less stalls with level style compaction. This is very likely not ideal configuration. Feel free to suggest improvements. I used some of Mark's suggestions from here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/54
* OptimizeUniversalStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- optimize for universal compaction.
Test Plan: compiled rocksdb. ran examples.

Summary:
Newer gflags switched from `google` namespace to `gflags` namespace. See: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/139 and https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/102
Unfortunately, they don't define any macro with their namespace, so we need to actually try to compile gflags with two different namespace to figure out which one is the correct one.
Test Plan: works in fbcode environemnt. I'll also try in ubutnu with newer gflags

Summary:
Use autovector in MergingIterator so that if there are 4 or less child iterators in it, iterator wrappers are inline, which is more likely to be cache friendly.
Based on one test run with a shadow traffic of one product, it reduces CPU of MergingIterator::Seek() by half.

Summary:
This was reported by our customers in task #4295529.
Cause:
* MANIFEST file contains a VersionEdit, which contains file entries whose 'smallest' and 'largest' internal keys are empty. String with zero characters. Root cause of corruption was not investigated. We should report corruption when this happens. However, we currently SIGSEGV.
Here's what happens:
* VersionEdit encodes zero-strings happily and stores them in smallest and largest InternalKeys. InternalKey::Encode() does assert when `rep_.empty()`, but we don't assert in production environemnts. Also, we should never assert as a result of DB corruption.
* As part of our ConsistencyCheck, we call GetLiveFilesMetaData()
* GetLiveFilesMetadata() calls `file->largest.user_key().ToString()`
* user_key() function does: 1. assert(size > 8) (ooops, no assert), 2. returns `Slice(internal_key.data(), internal_key.size() - 8)`
* since `internal_key.size()` is unsigned int, this call translates to `Slice(whatever, 1298471928561892576182756)`. Bazinga.
Fix:
* VersionEdit checks if InternalKey is valid in `VersionEdit::GetInternalKey()`. If it's invalid, returns corruption.
Lessons learned:
* Always keep in mind that even if you `assert()`, production code will continue execution even if assert fails.
* Never `assert` based on DB corruption. Assert only if the code should guarantee that assert can't fail.
Test Plan: dumped offending manifest. Before: assert. Now: corruption

There are some projects in fbcode that define lz4 dependency on r108. We, however, defined dependency on r117. That produced some interesting issues and our build system was not happy.
This diff makes rocksdb work with both r108 and r117. Hopefully this will fix our problems.

db_test includes Benchmark for LogAndApply. This diff removes it from db_test and puts it into a separate log_and_apply bench. I just wanted to play around with our new benchmark framework and figure out how it works.
I would also like to show you how great it is! I believe right set of microbenchmarks can speed up our productivity a lot and help catch early regressions.

Summary: PlainTableFactory::PlainTableFactory() now has Huge TLB page feature turned on by default. Although it is not a public API (which we always turn the feature off now), our unit tests, like db_test sometimes uses it directly, which causes wrong coverage of codes. This patch fix it to allow unit tests to run with the correct setting
Test Plan: Run db_test and make sure this feature is not on any more.

Summary:
Our valgrind tests are failing because ttl_test is kind of flakey. This diff should fix valgrind issue and make ttl_test less flakey and much faster.
Instead of relying on Env::Default() for getting current time, I expose `Env*` to all TTL functions that are interested in time. That way, I can insert a custom test Env which is then used to provide exactly the times we need. That way, we don't need to sleep anymore -- we control the time.

Added a new option `max_total_wal_size`. Once the total WAL size goes over that, we make an attempt to flush all column families that still have data in the earliest WAL file.
By default, I calculate `max_total_wal_size` dynamically, that should be good-enough for non-advanced customers.

Summary:
= Major Changes =
* Add a new mem-table representation, HashCuckooRep, which is based cuckoo hash.
Cuckoo hash uses multiple hash functions. This allows each key to have multiple
possible locations in the mem-table.
- Put: When insert a key, it will try to find whether one of its possible
locations is vacant and store the key. If none of its possible
locations are available, then it will kick out a victim key and
store at that location. The kicked-out victim key will then be
stored at a vacant space of its possible locations or kick-out
another victim. In this diff, the kick-out path (known as
cuckoo-path) is found using BFS, which guarantees to be the shortest.
- Get: Simply tries all possible locations of a key --- this guarantees
worst-case constant time complexity.
- Time complexity: O(1) for Get, and average O(1) for Put if the
fullness of the mem-table is below 80%.
- Default using two hash functions, the number of hash functions used
by the cuckoo-hash may dynamically increase if it fails to find a
short-enough kick-out path.
- Currently, HashCuckooRep does not support iteration and snapshots,
as our current main purpose of this is to optimize point access.
= Minor Changes =
* Add IsSnapshotSupported() to DB to indicate whether the current DB
supports snapshots. If it returns false, then DB::GetSnapshot() will
always return nullptr.
Test Plan:
Run existing tests. Will develop a test specifically for cuckoo hash in
the next diff.

Summary:
ReadFirstRecord() reads the actual log file from disk on every call. This diff introduces a cache layer on top of ReadFirstRecord(), which should significantly speed up repeated calls to GetUpdatesSince().
I also cleaned up some stuff, but the whole TransactionLogIterator could use some refactoring, especially if we see increased usage.
