Summary:
This is part of an alternative approach to https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8316.
Unlike that approach, this one relies on key-values getting processed one by one
during compaction, and does not involve persistence.
Specifically, the patch adds a class `BlobGarbageMeter` that can track the number
and total size of blobs in a (sub)compaction's input and output on a per-blob file
basis. This information can then be used to compute the amount of additional
garbage generated by the compaction for any given blob file by subtracting the
"outflow" from the "inflow."
Note: this patch only adds `BlobGarbageMeter` and associated unit tests. I plan to
hook up this class to the input and output of `CompactionIterator` in a subsequent PR.
