Summary:
As of now compactions involving files from Level 0 and Level 1 are single
threaded because the files in L0, although sorted, are not range partitioned like
the other levels. This means that during L0-L1 compaction each file from L1
needs to be merged with potentially all the files from L0.
This attempt to parallelize the L0-L1 compaction assigns a thread and a
corresponding iterator to each L1 file that then considers only the key range
found in that L1 file and only the L0 files that have those keys (and only the
specific portion of those L0 files in which those keys are found). In this way
the overlap is minimized and potentially eliminated between different iterators
focusing on the same files.
The first step is to restructure the compaction logic to break L0-L1 compactions
into multiple, smaller, sequential compactions. Eventually each of these smaller
jobs will be run simultaneously. Areas to pay extra attention to are
# Correct aggregation of compaction job statistics across multiple threads
# Proper opening/closing of output files (make sure each thread's is unique)
# Keys that span multiple L1 files
# Skewed distributions of keys within L0 files
Test Plan: Make and run db_test (newer version has separate compaction tests) and compaction_job_stats_test

Summary:
When we first started, max_background_flushes was 0 by default and compaction thread was executing flushes (since there was no flush thread). Then, we switched the default max_background_flushes to 1. However, we still support the case where there is no flush thread and flushes are done in compaction. This is making our code a bit more complicated. By not supporting this use-case we can make our code simpler.
We have a special case that when you set max_background_flushes to 0, we
schedule the flush to execute on the compaction thread.
Test Plan: make check (there might be some unit tests that depend on this behavior)

Summary: It has been around for a while and it looks like it never found any uses in the wild. It's also complicating our compaction_job code quite a bit. We're deprecating it in 3.13, but will put it back in 3.14 if we actually find users that need this feature.

Summary:
Universal compaction can involves in multiple levels. However,
the current implementation of bytes_readn and bytes_readnp1
(and some other stats with postfix `n` and `np1`) assumes compaction
can only have two levels.
This patch fixes this bug and redefines bytes_readn and bytes_readnp1:
* bytes_readnp1: the number of bytes read in the compaction output level.
* bytes_readn: the total number of bytes read minus bytes_readnp1
Test Plan: Add a test in compaction_job_stats_test

Summary:
Couple changes:
1. instead of SnapshotList, just take a vector of snapshots
2. don't take a separate parameter is_snapshots_supported. If there are snapshots in the list, that means they are supported. I actually think we should get rid of this notion of snapshots not being supported.
3. don't pass in mutable_cf_options as a parameter. Lifetime of mutable_cf_options is a bit tricky to maintain, so it's better to not pass it in for the whole compaction job. We only really need it when we install the compaction results.

Summary:
Added these events:
* Recovery start, finish and also when recovery creates a file
* Trivial move
* Compaction start, finish and when compaction creates a file
* Flush start, finish
Also includes small fix to EventLogger
Also added option ROCKSDB_PRINT_EVENTS_TO_STDOUT which is useful when we debug things. I've spent far too much time chasing LOG files.
Still didn't get sst table properties in JSON. They are written very deeply into the stack. I'll address in separate diff.
TODO:
* Write specification. Let's first use this for a while and figure out what's good data to put here, too. After that we'll write spec
* Write tools that parse and analyze LOGs. This can be in python or go. Good intern task.

Summary:
Long awaited CompactionJob class! Move most compaction-related things from DBImpl to CompactionJob, making CompactionJob easier to test and understand.
Currently this is just replicating exactly the same functionality with as little as change as possible. As future work, we should:
1. Add CompactionJob tests (I think I'll do that tomorrow)
2. Reduce CompactionJob's state that it inherits from DBImpl
3. Figure out how to do yielding to flush better. Currently I implemented a callback as we agreed yesterday, but I don't think it's a good long term solution.
This reduces db_impl.cc from 5000+ LOC to 3400!
Test Plan: make check, will add CompactionJob-specific tests, probably also move some tests from db_test to compaction_job_test
