Summary:
This fix is for `level == 0` in `GetOverlappingInputs()`:
- In `GetOverlappingInputs()`, if `level == 0`, it has potential
risk of overflow if `i == 0`.
- Optmize process when `expand = true`, the expected complexity
can be reduced to O(n).

Summary:
Before running CompactFilesTest.SentinelCompressionType, we should check
whether zlib and snappy are supported.
CompactFilesTest.SentinelCompressionType is a newly added test. Compilation and
linking with different options, e.g. COMPILE_WITH_TSAN, COMPILE_WITH_ASAN, etc.
lead to generation of different binaries. On the one hand, it's not clear why
zlib or snappy is present under ASAN, but not under TSAN. On the other hand,
changing the compilation flags for TSAN or ASAN seems a bigger change worth much
more attention. To unblock the cont-runs, I suggest that we simply add these
two checks at the beginning of the test, as we did for
GeneralTableTest.ApproximateOffsetOfCompressed in table/table_test.cc.
Future actions include invesigating the absence of zlib and snappy when
compiling with TSAN, i.e. COMPILE_WITH_TSAN=1, if necessary.

Summary:
The CollapsedRangeDelMap was entirely mishandling tombstones at the same
sequence number when the tombstones did not have identical start and end
keys. Such tombstones are common since 90fc40690, which causes
tombstones to be split during compactions.
For example, if the tombstone [a, c) @ 1 lies across a compaction
boundary at b, it will be split into [a, b) @ 1 and [b, c) @ 1. Without
this patch, the collapsed range deletion map would look like this:
a -> 1
b -> 1
c -> 0
Notice how the b -> 1 entry is redundant. When the tombstones overlap,
the problem is even worse. Consider tombstones [a, c) @ 1 and [b, d) @
1, which produces this map without this patch:
a -> 1
b -> 1
c -> 0
d -> 0
This map is corrupt, as a map can never contain adjacent sentinel (zero)
entries. When the iterator advances from b to c, it will notice that c
is a sentinel enty and skip to d--but d is also a sentinel entry! Asking
what tombstone this iterator points to will trigger an assertion, as it
is not pointing to a valid tombstone.

Summary:
The Comparator passed to CollapsedRangeDelMap was not used for
operator less of the std::map `rep_` object contained in
CollapsedRangeDelMap. So the map was always sorted using the
default ByteWiseComparator, which seems wrong.
Passing the specified Comparator through for usage in that map
object fixes actual problems we were seeing with RangeDelete operations
that do not delete keys as expected when using a custom Comparator.
I found that the tests in current master crash when I run them locally,
both with and without my patch, at the very same location. I therefore
don't know if the patch breaks something else, but it seems to fix
RangeDeletion issues in our product that uses RocksDB.

Summary:
This commit implements automatic recovery from a Status::NoSpace() error
during background operations such as write callback, flush and
compaction. The broad design is as follows -
1. Compaction errors are treated as soft errors and don't put the
database in read-only mode. A compaction is delayed until enough free
disk space is available to accomodate the compaction outputs, which is
estimated based on the input size. This means that users can continue to
write, and we rely on the WriteController to delay or stop writes if the
compaction debt becomes too high due to persistent low disk space
condition
2. Errors during write callback and flush are treated as hard errors,
i.e the database is put in read-only mode and goes back to read-write
only fater certain recovery actions are taken.
3. Both types of recovery rely on the SstFileManagerImpl to poll for
sufficient disk space. We assume that there is a 1-1 mapping between an
SFM and the underlying OS storage container. For cases where multiple
DBs are hosted on a single storage container, the user is expected to
allocate a single SFM instance and use the same one for all the DBs. If
no SFM is specified by the user, DBImpl::Open() will allocate one, but
this will be one per DB and each DB will recover independently. The
recovery implemented by SFM is as follows -
a) On the first occurance of an out of space error during compaction,
subsequent
compactions will be delayed until the disk free space check indicates
enough available space. The required space is computed as the sum of
input sizes.
b) The free space check requirement will be removed once the amount of
free space is greater than the size reserved by in progress
compactions when the first error occured
c) If the out of space error is a hard error, a background thread in
SFM will poll for sufficient headroom before triggering the recovery
of the database and putting it in write-only mode. The headroom is
calculated as the sum of the write_buffer_size of all the DB instances
associated with the SFM
4. EventListener callbacks will be called at the start and completion of
automatic recovery. Users can disable the auto recov ery in the start
callback, and later initiate it manually by calling DB::Resume()
Todo:
1. More extensive testing
2. Add disk full condition to db_stress (follow-on PR)

Summary:
`RangeDelAggregator::AddTombstones` contained an assertion which stated that, if a range tombstone extended past the largest key in the sstable, then `FileMetaData::largest` must have a sentinel sequence number of `kMaxSequenceNumber`, which implies that the tombstone's end key is safe to truncate. However, `largest` will not be a sentinel key when the next sstable in the level's smallest key is equal to the current sstable's largest key, which caused the assertion to fail.
The assertion must hold for the truncation to be safe, so it has been moved to an additional check on end-key truncation.

Summary:
Basically at the moment it seems it's possible to cause write stall by calling flush (either manually vis DB::Flush(), or from Backup Engine directly calling FlushMemTable() while background flush may be already happening.
One of the ways to fix it is that in DBImpl::CompactRange() we already check for possible stall and delay flush if needed before we actually proceed to call FlushMemTable(). We can simply move this delay logic to separate method and call it from FlushMemTable.
This is draft patch, for first look; need to check tests/update SyncPoints and most certainly would need to add allow_write_stall method to FlushOptions().

Summary:
Memtables are selected for flushing by the flush job. Currently we
have listener which is invoked when memtables for a column family are
flushed. That listener does not indicate which memtable was flushed in
the notification. If clients want to know if particular data in the
memtable was retired, there is no straight forward way to know this.
This method will help users who implement memtablerep factory and extend
interface for memtablerep, to know if the data in the memtable was
retired.
Another option that was tried, was to depend on memtable destructor to
be called after flush to mark that data was persisted. This works all
the time but sometimes there can huge delays between actual flush
happening and memtable getting destroyed. Hence, if anyone who is
waiting for data to persist will have to wait that longer.
It is expected that anyone who is implementing this method to have
return quickly as it blocks RocksDB.

In the current trace_and replay, Get an WriteBatch are traced. This pull request track down the Seek() and SeekForPrev() to the trace file. <target_key, timestamp, column_family_id> are write to the file.
Replay of Iterator is not supported in the current implementation.
Tested with trace_analyzer.

Summary:
Given that index value is a BlockHandle, which is basically an <offset, size> pair we can apply delta encoding on the values. The first value at each index restart interval encoded the full BlockHandle but the rest encode only the size. Refer to IndexBlockIter::DecodeCurrentValue for the detail of the encoding. This reduces the index size which helps using the block cache more efficiently. The feature is enabled with using format_version 4.
The feature comes with a bit of cpu overhead which should be paid back by the higher cache hits due to smaller index block size.
Results with sysbench read-only using 4k blocks and using 16 index restart interval:
Format 2:
19585 rocksdb read-only range=100
Format 3:
19569 rocksdb read-only range=100
Format 4:
19352 rocksdb read-only range=100
