Summary:
When ReadOption doesn't specify a snapshot, WritePrepared::Get used kMaxSequenceNumber to avoid the cost of creating a new snapshot object (that requires sync over db_mutex). This creates a race condition if it is reading from the writes of a transaction that had duplicate keys: each instance of duplicate key is inserted with a different sequence number and depending on the ordering the ::Get might skip the newer one and read the older one that is obsolete.
The patch fixes that by using last published seq as the snapshot sequence number. It also adds a check after the read is done to ensure that the max_evicted_seq has not advanced the aforementioned seq, which is a very unlikely event. If it did, then the read is not valid since the seq is not backed by an actually snapshot to let IsInSnapshot handle that properly when an overlapping commit is evicted from commit cache.
A unit test is added to reproduce the race condition with duplicate keys.

Summary:
WriteUnPrepared adds a virtual function, MaxUnpreparedSequenceNumber, to ReadCallback, which returns 0 unless WriteUnPrepared is enabled and the transaction has uncommitted data written to the DB. Together with snapshot sequence number, this determines the last sequence that is visible to reads.
The patch clarifies the guarantees of the GetIterator API in WriteUnPrepared transactions and make use of that to statically initialize the read callback and thus avoid the virtual call.
Furthermore it increases the minimum value for min_uncommitted from 0 to 1 as seq 0 is used only for last level keys that are committed in all snapshots.
The following benchmark shows +0.26% higher throughput in seekrandom benchmark.

Summary:
The read path includes a callback function, ReadCallback, which would eventually calls IsInSnapshot to figure if a particular seq is in the reading snapshot or not. This callback is virtual, which adds the cost of multiple virtual function call to each read. The first few checks in IsInSnapshot, however, are quite trivial and take care of majority of the cases. The patch moves those to a non-virtual function in the the parent class, ReadCallback, to lower the virtual callback cost.

Summary:
This is implemented by extending ReadCallback with another function `MaxUnpreparedSequenceNumber` which returns the largest visible sequence number for the current transaction, if there is uncommitted data written to DB. Otherwise, it returns zero, indicating no uncommitted data.
There are the places where reads had to be modified.
- Get and Seek/Next was just updated to seek to max(snapshot_seq, MaxUnpreparedSequenceNumber()) instead, and iterate until a key was visible.
- Prev did not need need updates since it did not use the Seek to sequence number optimization. Assuming that locks were held when writing unprepared keys, and ValidateSnapshot runs, there should only be committed keys and unprepared keys of the current transaction, all of which are visible. Prev will simply iterate to get the last visible key.
- Reseeking to skip keys optimization was also disabled for write unprepared, since it's possible to hit the max_skip condition even while reseeking. There needs to be some way to resolve infinite looping in this case.

Summary:
This patch instruments the read path to verify each read value against an optional ReadCallback class. If the value is rejected, the reader moves on to the next value. The WritePreparedTxn makes use of this feature to skip sequence numbers that are not in the read snapshot.
