Summary:
The patch fixes an improbable race condition between AddPrepared from one write queue and AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq from another queue. In this scenario AddPrepared finds prepare_seq lower than max and adding to PrepareHeap as usual while AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq has finished checking PrepareHeap against the future max. Thus when AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq finishes off by updating the max_evicted_seq_, PrepareHeap ends up with a prepared_seq lower than it which breaks the PrepareHeap contract. The fix is that in AddPrepared we check against the future_max_evicted_seq_ instead, which is update before AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq acquire prepare_mutex_ and looks into PrepareHeap.
A unit test added to test for the failure scenario. The code is also refactored a bit to remove the duplicate code between AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq and AddPrepared.

Summary:
The patch adds the sequence number of the rollback patch to the PrepareHeap when two_write_queues is enabled. Although the current behavior is still correct, the change simplifies reasoning about the code, by having all uncommitted batches registered with the PreparedHeap.

Summary:
When two_write_queues is enabled we call ::AddPrepared only from the main queue, which writes to both WAL and memtable, and call ::AddCommitted from the 2nd queue, which writes only to WAL. This simplifies the logic by avoiding concurrency between AddPrepared and also between AddCommitted. The patch fixes one case that did not conform with the rule above. This would allow future refactoring. For example AdvaneMaxEvictedSeq, which is invoked by AddCommitted, can be simplified by assuming lack of concurrent calls to it.

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:
Currently the transaction stress tests use thread id as the seed. Since the thread ids are likely to be the same across multiple runs, the seed is thus going to be the same. The patch includes time in calculating the seed to help covering a very different part of state space in each run of the stress tests. To be able to reproduce the bug in case the stress tests failed, it also prints out the time that was used to calculate the seed value.

Summary:
The transaction stress tests, stress a high concurrency scenario. In WritePrepared/WriteUnPrepared we need to also stress the scenarios where an inserting/reading transaction is very slow. This would stress the corner cases that the caching is not sufficient and other slower data structures are engaged. To emulate such cases we make use of slow inserter/verifier threads and also reduce the size of cache data structures.

Summary:
ValidateSnapshot checks if another txn has committed a value to about-to-be-locked key since a particular snapshot. It applies an optimization of looking into only the memtable if snapshot seq is larger than the earliest seq in the memtables. With a long-running txn in WritePrepared, the prepared value might be flushed out to the disk and yet it commits after the snapshot, which breaks this optimization. The patch fixes that by disabling this optimization when the min_uncomitted seq at the time the snapshot was taken is lower than earliest seq in the memtables.

Summary:
Commit of delayed prepared has two non-atomic steps: add to commit cache, remove from delayed_prepared_. Similarly in ::IsInSnapshot we read from commit cache first and then look into delayed_prepared_. Due to non-atomicity thus the reader might not find the
prep_seq that is just committed neither in commit cache nor in delayed_prepared_. To fix that i)
we check if there was any delayed prepared BEFORE looking into commit
cache, ii) if there was, we complete the search steps to be these: i)
commit cache, ii) delayed prepared, commit cache again. In this way if
the first query to commit cache missed the commit, the 2nd will catch it. The cost of the redundant read from commit cache is paid only if delayed_prepared_ is nonempty which should be a very rare scenario.

Summary:
WritePrepared maintains a list of snapshots that are <= max_evicted_seq_. Based on this list, old_commit_map_ is updated if an evicted commit entry overlaps with such snapshot. Such lists are garbage collected when the release of snapshot is reported to WritePreparedTxnDB, which is the next time max_evicted_seq_ is updated and yet the snapshot is not found is the list returned from DB. This logic was broken since ReleaseSnapshotInternal was using "< max_evicted_seq_" to cleanup old_commit_map_, which would leave a snapshot uncleaned if it "= max_evicted_seq_". The patch fixes that and adds a unit test to check for the bug.

Summary:
Fix how CompactionIterator::findEarliestVisibleSnapshots handles released snapshot. It fixing the two scenarios:
Scenario 1:
key1 has two values v1 and v2. There're two snapshots s1 and s2 taken after v1 and v2 are committed. Right after compaction output v2, s1 is released. Now findEarliestVisibleSnapshot may see s1 being released, and return the next snapshot, which is s2. That's larger than v2's earliest visible snapshot, which was s1.
The fix: the only place we check against last snapshot and current key snapshot is when we decide whether to compact out a value if it is hidden by a later value. In the check if we see current snapshot is even larger than last snapshot, we know last snapshot is released, and we are safe to compact out current key.
Scenario 2:
key1 has two values v1 and v2. there are two snapshots s1 and s2 taken after v1 and v2 are committed. During compaction before we process the key, s1 is released. When compaction process v2, snapshot checker may return kSnapshotReleased, and the earliest visible snapshot for v2 become s2. When compaction process v1, snapshot checker may return kIsInSnapshot (for WritePrepared transaction, it could be because v1 is still in commit cache). The result will become inconsistent here.
The fix: remember the set of released snapshots ever reported by snapshot checker, and ignore them when finding result for findEarliestVisibleSnapshot.

Summary:
Here is the order of ops in a commit: 1) update commit cache 2) publish seq, 3) RemovePrepared. In case of a delayed prepared, there will be a gap between when the commit is visible to snapshots until delayed_prepared_ is cleaned up. To tell apart this case from a delayed uncommitted txn from, the commit entry of a delayed prepared is also stored in delayed_prepared_commits_, which is updated before publishing the commit.
Also logic in GetSnapshotInternal that ensures that each new snapshot is always larger than max_evicted_seq_ is updated to check against the upcoming value of max_evicted_seq_ rather than its current one. This is because AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq gets the list of snapshots lower than the new max, before updating max_evicted_seq_.

Summary:
Compaction iterator keep a copy of list of live snapshots at the beginning of compaction, and then query snapshot checker to verify if values of a sequence number is visible to these snapshots. However when the snapshot is released in the middle of compaction, the snapshot checker implementation (i.e. WritePreparedSnapshotChecker) may remove info with the snapshot and may report incorrect result, which lead to values being compacted out when it shouldn't. This patch conservatively keep the values if snapshot checker determines that the snapshots is released.

Summary:
With WritePrepared transaction, flush/compaction can contain uncommitted keys, and those keys can get committed during compaction. If a snapshot is taken before the key is committed, it should not see the key. On the other hand, compaction grab the list of snapshots at its beginning, and only consider those snapshots to dedup keys. Consider the case:
```
seq = 1: put "foo" = "bar"
seq = 2: transaction T: delete "foo", prepare
seq = 3: compaction start
seq = 4: take snapshot S
seq = 5: transaction T: commit.
...
seq = N: compaction iterator reached key "foo".
```
When compaction start, the list of snapshot is empty. Compaction doesn't take snapshot S into account. When it reached "foo", transaction T is committed. Compaction may think the value "foo=bar" is not visible by any snapshot (which is wrong), and compact the value out.
The fix is to explicitly take a snapshot before compaction grabbing the list of snapshots. Compaction will then has to keep keys visible to this snapshot.

Summary:
The AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq algorithm assumes that new snapshots always have sequence number larger than the last max_evicted_seq_. To enforce this assumption we make two changes:
i) max is not advanced beyond the last published seq, with the exception that the evicted commit entry itself is not published yet, which is quite rare.
ii) When obtaining the snapshot if the max_evicted_seq_ is not published yet, commit a dummy entry so that it waits for it to be published and also increased the latest published seq by one above the max.
To test these non-realistic corner cases we create a commit cache with size 1 so that every single commit results into eviction.

Summary:
Previously IsInSnapshot assumed that the snapshot is valid at the time that the function is called. However there are cases where that might not be valid. Example is background compactions where the compaction algorithm operates with a list of snapshots some of which might be released by the time they are being passed to IsInSnapshot. The patch make two changes to enable the caller to tell difference: i) any live snapshot below max is added to max_committed_seq_, which allows IsInSnapshot to confidently tell whether the passed snapshot is invalid if it below max, ii) extends IsInSnapshot API with a "released" variable that is set true when IsInSnapshot find no such snapshot below max and also find no other way to give a certain return value. In such cases the return value is true but the caller should also check the "released" boolean after the call.
In short here is the changes in the API:
i) If the snapshot is valid, no change is required.
ii) If the snapshot might be invalid, a reference to "released" boolean must be passed to IsInSnapshot.
ii-a) If snapshot is above max, IsInSnapshot can figure the return valid using the commit cache.
ii-b) otherwise if snapshot is in old_commit_map_, IsInSnapshot can use that to tell if value was visible to the snapshot.
ii-c) otherwise it sets "released" to true and returns true as well.

IsInSnapshotEmptyMapTest tests that IsInSnapshot returns correct value for existing data after a recovery, where max is not zero and yet commit cache is empty. The existing test was preliminary which is improved in this patch. It also increases the db sequence after recovery so that there the snapshot immediately taken after recovery would have a sequence number different than that of max_evicted_seq. This simplifies the logic in IsInSnapshot by not having to consider the special case that an old snapshot might be equal to max_evicted_seq and yet not present in old_commit_map.

The rollback algorithm in WritePrepared transactions requires reading the values before the transaction start. Currently it uses the prepare_seq -1 as the snapshot sequence number for the read. This is not correct since the passed sequence number must be for a valid snapshot. The patch fixes it by passing kMaxSequenceNumber instead. This is fine since all the writes done by the aborted transaction will be skipped during the read anyway.

Transaction::GetForUpdate is extended with a do_validate parameter with default value of true. If false it skips validating the snapshot (if there is any) before doing the read. After the read it also returns the latest value (expects the ReadOptions::snapshot to be nullptr). This allows RocksDB applications to use GetForUpdate similarly to how InnoDB does. Similarly ::Merge, ::Put, ::Delete, and ::SingleDelete are extended with assume_exclusive_tracked with default value of false. It true it indicates that call is assumed to be after a ::GetForUpdate(do_validate=false).
The Java APIs are accordingly updated.

Currently the garbage collection of items in old_commit_map_ was done upon ::ReleaseSnapshot. The assumption behind this method was that the sequence number of snapshots are unique, which is incorrect. In the very rare cases that two consecutive snapshot have the same sequence number this could lead the release of the first snapshot affect the old_commit_map_ that is necessary to service the reads of the second snapshot. The bug would be triggered only if i) two snapshot have the same seq, ii) both of them are very old (older than the last ~4m transactions), and iii) there is commit entry overlapping with the snapshot seq number.
It is fixed by doing the cleanup of old_commit_map_ in UpdateSnapshot: the new list of snapshots are compared with the old one and the missing sequence numbers are concluded released. If two snapshots have the same seq number, after the release of one of them, the seq number still appears in the snapshot least and thus not cleaned up prematurely.
