Summary:
When we first started, max_background_flushes was 0 by default and compaction thread was executing flushes (since there was no flush thread). Then, we switched the default max_background_flushes to 1. However, we still support the case where there is no flush thread and flushes are done in compaction. This is making our code a bit more complicated. By not supporting this use-case we can make our code simpler.
We have a special case that when you set max_background_flushes to 0, we
schedule the flush to execute on the compaction thread.

Summary:
For transactions, we are using the memtables to validate that there are no write conflicts. But after flushing, we don't have any memtables, and transactions could fail to commit. So we want to someone keep around some extra history to use for conflict checking. In addition, we want to provide a way to increase the size of this history if too many transactions fail to commit.
After chatting with people, it seems like everyone prefers just using Memtables to store this history (instead of a separate history structure). It seems like the best place for this is abstracted inside the memtable_list. I decide to create a separate list in MemtableListVersion as using the same list complicated the flush/installalflushresults logic too much.
This diff adds a new parameter to control how much memtable history to keep around after flushing. However, it sounds like people aren't too fond of adding new parameters. So I am making the default size of flushed+not-flushed memtables be set to max_write_buffers. This should not change the maximum amount of memory used, but make it more likely we're using closer the the limit. (We are now postponing deleting flushed memtables until the max_write_buffer limit is reached). So while we might use more memory on average, we are still obeying the limit set (and you could argue it's better to go ahead and use up memory now instead of waiting for a write stall to happen to test this limit).
However, if people are opposed to this default behavior, we can easily set it to 0 and require this parameter be set in order to use transactions.
Test Plan: Added a xfunc test to play around with setting different values of this parameter in all tests. Added testing in memtablelist_test and planning on adding more testing here.

In this improvement (proposed by Igor Kabiljo), we introduce a parameter option.level_compaction_use_dynamic_max_bytes. When turning it on, RocksDB is free to pick a level base in the range of (options.max_bytes_for_level_base/options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier, options.max_bytes_for_level_base] so that real level ratios are close to options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier.

Summary:
This patch changes concurrency guarantees around ColumnFamilySet::column_families_ and ColumnFamilySet::column_families_data_.
Before:
* When mutating: lock DB mutex and spin lock
* When reading: lock DB mutex OR spin lock
After:
* When mutating: lock DB mutex and be in write thread
* When reading: lock DB mutex or be in write thread
That way, we eliminate the spin lock that protects these hash maps and simplify concurrency. That means we don't need to lock the spin lock during writing, since writing is mutually exclusive with column family create/drop (the only operations that mutate those hash maps).
With these new restrictions, I also needed to move column family create to the write thread (column family drop was already in the write thread).
Even though we don't need to lock the spin lock during write, impact on performance should be minimal -- the spin lock is almost never busy, so locking it is almost free.
This addresses task t5116919.

Summary:
When scaling to higher number of column families, the worst bottleneck was MaybeScheduleFlushOrCompaction(), which did a for loop over all column families while holding a mutex. This patch addresses the issue.
The approach is similar to our earlier efforts: instead of a pull-model, where we do something for every column family, we can do a push-based model -- when we detect that column family is ready to be flushed/compacted, we add it to the flush_queue_/compaction_queue_. That way we don't need to loop over every column family in MaybeScheduleFlushOrCompaction.
Here are the performance results:
