Summary:
Currently the point lookup values are copied to a string provided by the user.
This incures an extra memcpy cost. This patch allows doing point lookup
via a PinnableSlice which pins the source memory location (instead of
copying their content) and releases them after the content is consumed
by the user. The old API of Get(string) is translated to the new API
underneath.
Here is the summary for improvements:
1. value 100 byte: 1.8% regular, 1.2% merge values
2. value 1k byte: 11.5% regular, 7.5% merge values
3. value 10k byte: 26% regular, 29.9% merge values
The improvement for merge could be more if we extend this approach to
pin the merge output and delay the full merge operation until the user
actually needs it. We have put that for future work.
PS:
Sometimes we observe a small decrease in performance when switching from
t5452014 to this patch but with the old Get(string) API. The difference
is a little and could be noise. More importantly it is safely
cancelled

Summary:
Cleanable objects will perform the registered cleanups when
they are destructed. We however rather to delay this cleaning like when
we are gathering the merge operands. Current approach is to create the
Cleanable object on heap (instead of on stack) and delay deleting it.
By allowing Cleanables to delegate their cleanups to another cleanable
object we can delay the cleaning without however the need to craete the
cleanable object on heap and keeping it around. This patch applies this
technique for the cleanups of BlockIter and shows improved performance
for some in-memory benchmarks:
+1.8% for merge worklaod, +6.4% for non-merge workload when the merge
operator is specified.

Non-merge benchmark:
TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/v100nocomp/ ./db_bench --benchmarks=fillrandom
--num=1000000 -value_size=100 -compression_type=none
Reading random with no merge operator specified:
TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm/v100nocomp/ ./db_bench
--benchmarks="read
