Summary:
**Summary:**
Simplified the code layout by moving FIFOCompactionPicker to a separate file.
**Why?:**
While trying to add ttl functionality to universal compaction, I found that `FIFOCompactionPicker` class and its impl methods to be interspersed between `LevelCompactionPicker` methods which kind-of made the code a little hard to traverse. So I moved `FIFOCompactionPicker` to a separate compaction_picker_fifo.h/cc file, similar to `UniversalCompactionPicker`.

Summary:
RocksDB used to store global_seqno in external SST files written by
SstFileWriter. During file ingestion, RocksDB uses `pwrite` to update the
`global_seqno`. Since random write is not supported in some non-POSIX compliant
file systems, external SST file ingestion is not supported on these file
systems. To address this limitation, we no longer update `global_seqno` during
file ingestion. Later RocksDB uses the MANIFEST and other information in table
properties to deduce global seqno for externally-ingested SST files.

Summary:
This is still WIP, but I'm hoping for early feedback on the overall approach.
This patch implements deletion triggered compaction, which till now only
worked for leveled, for universal style. SST files are marked for
compaction by the CompactOnDeletionCollertor table property. This is
expected to be used when free disk space is low and the user wants to
reclaim space by deleting a bunch of keys. The deletions are expected to
be dense. In such a situation, we want to avoid a full compaction due to
its space overhead.
The strategy used in this case is similar to leveled. We pick one file
from the set of files marked for compaction. We then expand the inputs
to a clean cut on the same level, and then pick overlapping files from
the next non-mepty level. Picking files from the next level can cause
the key range to expand, and we opportunistically expand inputs in the
source level to include files wholly in this key range.
The main side effect of this is that it breaks the property of no time
range overlap between levels. This shouldn't break any functionality.

Summary:
In this change, an option to set different paths for different column families is added.
This option is set via cf_paths setting of ColumnFamilyOptions. This option will work in a similar fashion to db_paths setting. Cf_paths is a vector of Dbpath values which contains a pair of the absolute path and target size. Multiple levels in a Column family can go to different paths if cf_paths has more than one path.
To maintain backward compatibility, if cf_paths is not specified for a column family, db_paths setting will be used. Note that, if db_paths setting is also not specified, RocksDB already has code to use db_name as the only path.
Changes :
1) A new member "cf_paths" is added to ImmutableCfOptions. This is set, based on cf_paths setting of ColumnFamilyOptions and db_paths setting of ImmutableDbOptions. This member is used to identify the path information whenever files are accessed.
2) Validation checks are added for cf_paths setting based on existing checks for db_paths setting.
3) DestroyDB, PurgeObsoleteFiles etc. are edited to support multiple cf_paths.
4) Unit tests are added appropriately.

Summary:
ColumnFamilyOptions::compaction_options_fifo and all its sub-fields can be set dynamically now.
Some of the ways in which the fifo compaction options can be set are:
- `SetOptions({{"compaction_options_fifo", "{max_table_files_size=1024}"}})`
- `SetOptions({{"compaction_options_fifo", "{ttl=600;}"}})`
- `SetOptions({{"compaction_options_fifo", "{max_table_files_size=1024;ttl=600;}"}})`
- `SetOptions({{"compaction_options_fifo", "{max_table_files_size=51;ttl=49;allow_compaction=true;}"}})`
Most of the code has been made generic enough so that it could be reused later to make universal options (and other such nested defined-types) dynamic with very few lines of parsing/serializing code changes.
Introduced a few new functions like `ParseStruct`, `SerializeStruct` and `GetStringFromStruct`.
The duplicate code in `GetStringFromDBOptions` and `GetStringFromColumnFamilyOptions` has been moved into `GetStringFromStruct`. So they become just simple wrappers now.

Summary:
This diff addresses two problems. Both problems cause us to miss scheduling desirable compactions. One side effect is compaction picking can spam logs, as there's no delay after failed attempts to pick compactions.
1. If a compaction pulled in a locked input-level file due to user-key overlap, we would not consider picking another file from the same input level.
2. If a compaction pulled in a locked output-level file due to user-key overlap, we would not consider picking any other compaction on any level.
The code changes are dependent, which is why I solved both problems in a single diff.
- Moved input-level `ExpandInputsToCleanCut` into the loop inside `PickFileToCompact`. This gives two benefits: (1) if it fails, we will try the next-largest file on the same input level; (2) we get the fully-expanded input-level key-range with which we can check for pending compactions in output level.
- Added another call to `ExpandInputsToCleanCut` inside `PickFileToCompact`'s to check for compaction conflicts in output level.
- Deleted call to `IsRangeInCompaction` in `PickFileToCompact`, as `ExpandInputsToCleanCut` also correctly handles the case where original output-level files (i.e., ones not pulled in due to user-key overlap) are pending compaction.

- restriction-wise, we're going to disallow ingest_behind if (use_seqno_zero_out=true || disable_auto_compaction=false), the user is responsible to properly open and close DB with required params
- we wanted to ingest into reserved bottom most level. Should we fail fast if bottom level isn't empty, or should we attempt to ingest if file fits there key-ranges-wise?
- Modifying AssignLevelForIngestedFile seems the place we we'd handle that.
On code structure - going to refactor GenerateAndAddExternalFile call in the test class to allow passing instance of IngestionOptions, that's just going to incur lots of changes at callsites.

Summary:
Changed dynamic leveling to stop setting the base level's size bound below `max_bytes_for_level_base`.
Behavior for config where `max_bytes_for_level_base == level0_file_num_compaction_trigger * write_buffer_size` and same amount of data in L0 and base-level:
- Before #2027, compaction scoring would favor base-level due to dividing by size smaller than `max_bytes_for_level_base`.
- After #2027, L0 and Lbase get equal scores. The disadvantage is L0 is often compacted before reaching the num files trigger since `write_buffer_size` can be bigger than the dynamically chosen base-level size. This increases write-amp.
- After this diff, L0 and Lbase still get equal scores. Now it takes `level0_file_num_compaction_trigger` files of size `write_buffer_size` to trigger L0 compaction by size, fixing the write-amp problem above.

Summary:
Level-based L0->L0 compaction operates on spans of files that aren't currently being compacted. It reduces the number of L0 files, thus making write stall conditions harder to reach.
- L0->L0 is triggered when base level is unavailable due to pending compactions
- L0->L0 always outputs one file of at most `max_level0_burst_file_size` bytes.
- Subcompactions are disabled for L0->L0 since we want to output one file.
- Input files are chosen as the longest span of available files that will fit within the size limit. This minimizes number of files in L0.

Considering such a case:
input level file: 1[B E] 2[F G] 3[H I] 4 [J M]
output level file: 5[A C] 6[D K] 7[L O]
If we initially pick file 2, now we will compact file 2 and 6. But we can safely compact 2, 3 and 6 without expanding the output level.
The previous code is messy and wrong.
In this diff, I first determine the input range [a, b], and output range [c, d],
then we get the range [e,f] = [min(a, c), max(b, d] and put all eligible clean-cut files within [e, f] into this compaction.
**Note: clean-cut means the files don't have the same user key on the boundaries of some files that are not chosen in this compaction**.

Summary:
The previous fix of reappearing of a deleted row 0ce258f9b3 missed a corner case, which can be reproduced using test CompactionPickerTest.OverlappingUserKeys7. Consider such an example:
input level file: 1[B E] 2[F H]
output level file: 3[A C] 4[D I] 5[I K]
First file 2 is picked, which overlaps to file 4. 4 expands to 5. Now the all range is [D K] with 2 output level files. When we try to expand that, [D K] overlaps with file 1 and 2 in the input level, and 1 and 2 overlaps with 3 and 4 in the output level. So we end up with picking 3 and 4 in the output level. Without expanding, it also has 2 files, so we determine the output level doesn't change, although they are the different two files.
The fix is to expand the output level files after we picked 3 and 4. In that case, there will be three output level files so we will abort the expanding.
I also added two unit tests related to marked_for_compaction and being_compacted. They have been passing though.

Summary:
Some Mongo+Rocks datasets in Parse's environment are not doing compactions very frequently. During the quiet period (with no IO), we'd like to schedule compactions so that our reads become faster. Also, aggressively compacting during quiet periods helps when write bursts happen. In addition, we also want to compact files that are containing deleted key ranges (like old oplog keys).
All of this is currently not possible with CompactRange() because it's single-threaded and blocks all other compactions from happening. Running CompactRange() risks an issue of blocking writes because we generate too much Level 0 files before the compaction is over. Stopping writes is very dangerous because they hold transaction locks. We tried running manual compaction once on Mongo+Rocks and everything fell apart.
MarkForCompaction() solves all of those problems. This is very light-weight manual compaction. It is lower priority than automatic compactions, which means it shouldn't interfere with background process keeping the LSM tree clean. However, if no automatic compactions need to be run (or we have extra background threads available), we will start compacting files that are marked for compaction.
