Summary:
Introducing FIFO compactions with TTL.
FIFO compaction is based on size only which makes it tricky to enable in production as use cases can have organic growth. A user requested an option to drop files based on the time of their creation instead of the total size.
To address that request:
- Added a new TTL option to FIFO compaction options.
- Updated FIFO compaction score to take TTL into consideration.
- Added a new table property, creation_time, to keep track of when the SST file is created.
- Creation_time is set as below:
- On Flush: Set to the time of flush.
- On Compaction: Set to the max creation_time of all the files involved in the compaction.
- On Repair and Recovery: Set to the time of repair/recovery.
- Old files created prior to this code change will have a creation_time of 0.
- FIFO compaction with TTL is enabled when ttl > 0. All files older than ttl will be deleted during compaction. i.e. `if (file.creation_time < (current_time - ttl)) then delete(file)`. This will enable cases where you might want to delete all files older than, say, 1 day.
- FIFO compaction will fall back to the prior way of deleting files based on size if:
- the creation_time of all files involved in compaction is 0.
- the total size (of all SST files combined) does not drop below `compaction_options_fifo.max_table_files_size` even if the files older than ttl are deleted.
This feature is not supported if max_open_files != -1 or with table formats other than Block-based.
**Test Plan:**
Added tests.
**Benchmark results:**
Base: FIFO with max size: 100MB ::
```
svemuri@dev15905 ~/rocksdb (fifo-compaction) $ TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench --benchmarks=readwhilewriting --num=5000000 --threads=16 --compaction_style=2 --fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=100
readwhilewriting : 1.924 micros/op 519858 ops/sec; 13.6 MB/s (1176277 of 5000000 found)
```
With TTL (a low one for testing) ::
```

Summary:
- `max_background_flushes` and `max_background_compactions` are still supported for backwards compatibility
- `base_background_compactions` is completely deprecated. Now we just throttle to one background compaction when there's no pressure.
- `max_background_jobs` is added to automatically partition the concurrent background jobs into flushes vs compactions. Currently it's very simple as we just allocate one-fourth of the jobs to flushes, and the remaining can be used for compactions.
- The test cases that set `base_background_compactions > 1` needed to be updated. I just grab the pressure token such that the desired number of compactions can be scheduled.

Summary:
It's hard for RocksDB to come up with a good default of delayed write rate. Use rate given by rate limiter if it is availalbe. This provides the I/O order of magnitude.

Summary:
PipelineWriteImpl is an alternative approach to WriteImpl. In WriteImpl, only one thread is allow to write at the same time. This thread will do both WAL and memtable writes for all write threads in the write group. Pending writers wait in queue until the current writer finishes. In the pipeline write approach, two queue is maintained: one WAL writer queue and one memtable writer queue. All writers (regardless of whether they need to write WAL) will still need to first join the WAL writer queue, and after the house keeping work and WAL writing, they will need to join memtable writer queue if needed. The benefit of this approach is that
1. Writers without memtable writes (e.g. the prepare phase of two phase commit) can exit write thread once WAL write is finish. They don't need to wait for memtable writes in case of group commit.
2. Pending writers only need to wait for previous WAL writer finish to be able to join the write thread, instead of wait also for previous memtable writes.
Merging #2056 and #2058 into this PR.

Summary:
First cut for early review; there are few conceptual points to answer and some code structure issues.
For conceptual points -
- 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:
Replace Options::use_direct_writes with Options::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction
Now if Options::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction = true, we will enable direct io for both reads and writes for flush and compaction job. Whereas Options::use_direct_reads controls user reads like iterator and Get().
