Summary:
This PR has two fixes for crash test failures -
1. Fix a bug in TestMultiGet() in db_stress that was passing list of key to MultiGet() in the wrong order, thus ensuring that actual values don't match expected values
2. Remove an incorrect assertion in FilePickerMultiGet::GetNextFileInLevelWithKeys() that checks that files in a level are in sorted order. This is not true with MultiGet(), especially if there are duplicate keys and we may have to go back one file for the next key. Furthermore, this assertion makes more sense when a new version is created, rather than at lookup time

Summary:
Performing unordered writes in rocksdb when unordered_write option is set to true. When enabled the writes to memtable are done without joining any write thread. This offers much higher write throughput since the upcoming writes would not have to wait for the slowest memtable write to finish. The tradeoff is that the writes visible to a snapshot might change over time. If the application cannot tolerate that, it should implement its own mechanisms to work around that. Using TransactionDB with WRITE_PREPARED write policy is one way to achieve that. Doing so increases the max throughput by 2.2x without however compromising the snapshot guarantees.
The patch is prepared based on an original by siying
Existing unit tests are extended to include unordered_write option.

Summary:
Previous code may call `~ColumnFamilyData` in `DBImpl::AtomicFlushMemTablesToOutputFiles` if the column family is dropped or `cfd->IsFlushPending() == false`. In `~ColumnFamilyData`, the db mutex is released briefly and re-acquired. This can cause correctness issue. The reason is as follows.
Assume there are more bg flush threads. After bg_flush_thr1 releases the db mutex, bg_flush_thr2 can grab it and pop an element from the flush queue. This will cause bg_flush_thr2 to accidentally pick some memtables which should have been picked by bg_flush_thr1. To make the matter worse, bg_flush_thr2 can clear `flush_requested_` flag for the memtable list, causing a subsequent call to `MemTableList::IsFlushPending()` by bg_flush_thr1 to return false, which is wrong.
The fix is to delay `ColumnFamilyData::Unref` and `~ColumnFamilyData` for column families not selected for flush until `AtomicFlushMemTablesToOutputFiles` returns. Furthermore, a bg flush thread should not clear `MemTableList::flush_requested_` in `MemTableList::PickMemtablesToFlush` unless atomic flush is not used **or** the memtable list does not have unpicked memtables.

Summary:
CachableEntry is used in a variety of contexts: it may refer to a cached
object (i.e. an object in the block cache), an owned object, or an
unowned object; also, in some cases (most notably with iterators), the
responsibility of managing the pointed-to object gets handed off to
another object. Each of the above scenarios have different implications
for the lifecycle of the referenced object. For the most part, the patch
does not change the lifecycle of managed objects; however, it makes
these relationships explicit, and it also enables us to eliminate some
hacks and accident-prone code around releasing cache handles and
deleting/cleaning up objects. (The only places where the patch changes
how an objects are managed are the partitions of partitioned indexes and
filters.)

Summary:
When reseek happens in merging iterator, reseeking a child iterator can be avoided if:
(1) the iterator represents imutable data
(2) reseek() to a larger key than the current key
(3) the current key of the child iterator is larger than the seek key
because it is guaranteed that the result will fall into the same position.
This optimization will be useful for use cases where users keep seeking to keys nearby in ascending order.

Summary:
This PR fixes a couple of bugs in FilePickerMultiGet that were causing db_stress test failures. The failures were caused by -
1. Improper handling of a key that matches the user key portion of an L0 file's largest key. In this case, the curr_index_in_curr_level file index in L0 for that key was getting incremented, but batch_iter_ was not advanced. By design, all keys in a batch are supposed to be checked against an L0 file before advancing to the next L0 file. Not advancing to the next key in the batch was causing a double increment of curr_index_in_curr_level due to the same key being processed again
2. Improper handling of a key that matches the user key portion of the largest key in the last file of L1 and higher. This was resulting in a premature end to the processing of the batch for that level when the next key in the batch is a duplicate. Typically, the keys in MultiGet will not be duplicates, but its good to handle that case correctly

Summary:
Right now, DBIter::Next() always checks whether an entry is for the same user key as the previous entry to see whether the key should be hidden to the user. However, if previous entry's sequence number is 0, the check is not needed because 0 is the oldest possible sequence number.
We could extend it from seqnum 0 case to simply prev_seqno >= current_seqno. However, it is less robust with bug or unexpected situations, while the gain is relatively low. We can always extend it later when needed.
In a readseq benchmark with full formed LSM-tree, number of key comparisons called is reduced from 2.981 to 2.165. readseq against a fully compacted DB, no key comparison is called. Performance in this benchmark didn't show obvious improvement, which is expected because key comparisons only takes small percentage of CPU. But it may show up to be more effective if users have an expensive customized comparator.

Summary:
Right now there is a potential race condition where two threads are created to iterate through the DB (https://gist.github.com/miasantreble/88f5798a397ee7cb8e7baff9db2d9e85). The problem is that in `BlockBasedTable::NewIndexIterator`, if both threads failed to find index_reader from block cache, they will call `CreateIndexReader->UpdateIndexType()` which creates a race to update `index_type` in the shared rep_ object. By checking the code, we realize the index type is always populated by `PrefetchIndexAndFilterBlocks` during the table `Open` call, so there is no need to update index type every time during iterator creation. This PR attempts to fix the race condition by removing the unnecessary call to `UpdateIndexType`

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.
For simplicity, to avoid the feature is disabled in two cases: i) When more than one sub-compaction are sharing the same snapshot list, ii) when Range Delete is used in which the range delete aggregator has its own copy of snapshot list.
This fixes the reverted https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5099 issue with range deletes.

Summary:
At least one of the meta-block loading functions (`ReadRangeDelBlock`)
uses the same block reading function (`NewDataBlockIterator`) as data
block reads, which means it uses the dictionary handle. However, the
dictionary handle was uninitialized while reading meta-blocks, causing
readers to receive an error. This situation was only noticed when
`cache_index_and_filter_blocks=true`.
This PR initializes the handle to null while reading meta-blocks to
prevent the error. It also adds support to `db_stress` /
`db_crashtest.py` for `cache_index_and_filter_blocks`.

Summary:
With atomic flush, RocksDB background flush will flush memtables of a column family up to the largest memtable id in the immutable memtable list. This can introduce a bug in the following scenario. A user thread inserts into a column family until the memtable is full and triggers a flush. This will add the column family to flush_scheduler_. Then the user thread writes another record to the column family. In the PreprocessWrite function, the user thread picks the column family from flush_scheduler_ and schedules a flush request. The flush request gaurantees to flush all the memtables up to the current largest memtable ID of the immutable memtable list. Then the user thread writes new data to the newly-created active memtable. After the write returns, the user thread closes the db. This can cause assertion failure when the background flush thread tries to install superversion for the column family. The solution is to not install flush results if the db has already set `shutting_down_` to true.

Summary:
Improve the iterators performance when the user explicitly sets the readahead size via `ReadOptions.readahead_size`.
1. Stop creating new table readers when the user explicitly sets readahead size.
2. Make use of an internal buffer based on `FilePrefetchBuffer` instead of using `ReadaheadRandomAccessFileReader`, to handle the user readahead requests (for both buffered and direct io cases).
3. Add `readahead_size` to db_bench.
**Benchmarks:**
https://gist.github.com/sagar0/53693edc320a18abeaeca94ca32f5737
For 1 MB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 28% and Direct IO performance improves by 50%.
For 512KB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 30% and Direct IO performance improves by 67%.
**Test Plan:**
Updated `DBIteratorTest.ReadAhead` test to make sure that:
- no new table readers are created for iterators on setting ReadOptions.readahead_size
- At least "readahead" number of bytes are actually getting read on each iterator read.
TODO later:
- Use similar logic for compactions as well.
- This ties in nicely with #4052 and paves the way for removing ReadaheadRandomAcessFile later.

Summary:
- By providing the "env" field in any text-based options (i.e., string, map, or file), we can use `NewCustomObject` to deserialize the text value into an actual `Env` object.
- Currently factory functions for `Env` registered with object registry should only return pointer to static `Env` objects. That's because `DBOptions::env` is a raw pointer so we cannot easily delegate cleanup.
- Note I did not add `env` to `db_option_type_info`. It wasn't needed for (de)serialization, and I believe we don't want to do verification on `env`, even by checking name. That's because the user should be able to copy their DB from Linux to Windows, change envs, and not see an option verification error.

Summary:
Currently one thread in RocksDB keeps a WAL file open while another thread
deletes it. Although the first thread never writes to the WAL again, it still
tries to close it in the end. This is fine on POSIX, but can be problematic on
other platforms, e.g. HDFS, etc.. It will either cause a lot of warning messages or
throw exceptions. The solution is to let the second thread close the WAL before deleting it.
RocksDB keeps the writers of the logs to delete in `logs_to_free_`, which is passed to `job_context` during `FindObsoleteFiles` (holding mutex). Then in `PurgeObsoleteFiles` (without mutex), these writers should close the logs.

Summary:
The existing implementation does not guarantee bytes reach disk every `bytes_per_sync` when writing SST files, or every `wal_bytes_per_sync` when writing WALs. This can cause confusing behavior for users who enable this feature to avoid large syncs during flush and compaction, but then end up hitting them anyways.
My understanding of the existing behavior is we used `sync_file_range` with `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE` to submit ranges for async writeback, such that we could continue processing the next range of bytes while that I/O is happening. I believe we can preserve that benefit while also limiting how far the processing can get ahead of the I/O, which prevents huge syncs from happening when the file finishes.
Consider this `sync_file_range` usage: `sync_file_range(fd_, 0, static_cast<off_t>(offset + nbytes), SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE | SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE)`. Expanding the range to start at 0 and adding the `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE` flag causes any pending writeback (like from a previous call to `sync_file_range`) to finish before it proceeds to submit the latest `nbytes` for writeback. The latest `nbytes` are still written back asynchronously, unless processing exceeds I/O speed, in which case the following `sync_file_range` will need to wait on it.
There is a second change in this PR to use `fdatasync` when `sync_file_range` is unavailable (determined statically) or has some known problem with the underlying filesystem (determined dynamically).
The above two changes only apply when the user enables a new option, `strict_bytes_per_sync`.

Summary:
Introduce BlockBasedTableOptions::index_shortening to give users control on which key shortening techniques to be used in building index blocks. Before this patch, both separators and successor keys where shortened in indexes. With this patch, the default is set to kShortenSeparators to only shorten the separators. Since each index block has many separators and only one successor (last key), the change should not have negative impact on index block size. However it should prevent many unnecessary block loads where due to approximation introduced by shorted successor, seek would land us to the previous block and then fix it by moving to the next one.

Summary:
Savepoints are assumed to be used in a stack-wise fashion (only
the top element should be used), so they were stored by `WriteBatch`
in a member variable `save_points` using an std::stack.
Conceptually this is fine, but the implementation had a few issues:
- the `save_points_` instance variable was a plain pointer to a heap-
allocated `SavePoints` struct. The destructor of `WriteBatch` simply
deletes this pointer. However, the copy constructor of WriteBatch
just copied that pointer, meaning that copying a WriteBatch with
active savepoints will very likely have crashed before. Now a proper
copy of the savepoints is made in the copy constructor, and not just
a copy of the pointer
- `save_points_` was an std::stack, which defaults to `std::deque` for
the underlying container. A deque is a bit over the top here, as we
only need access to the most recent savepoint (i.e. stack.top()) but
never any elements at the front. std::deque is rather expensive to
initialize in common environments. For example, the STL implementation
shipped with GNU g++ will perform a heap allocation of more than 500
bytes to create an empty deque object. Although the `save_points_`
container is created lazily by RocksDB, moving from a deque to a plain
`std::vector` is much more memory-efficient. So `save_points_` is now
a vector.
- `save_points_` was changed from a plain pointer to an `std::unique_ptr`,
making ownership more explicit.
