d52f334cbd Break stalls when no bg work is happening
Summary:
Current stall will keep sleeping even if there is no Flush/Compactions to wait for, I changed the logic to break the stall if we are not flushing or compacting

db_bench command used
```
# fillrandom
# memtable size = 10MB
# value size = 1 MB
# num = 1000
# use /dev/shm
./db_bench --benchmarks="fillrandom,stats" --value_size=1048576 --write_buffer_size=10485760 --num=1000 --delayed_write_rate=XXXXX  --db="/dev/shm/new_stall" | grep "Cumulative stall"
```

```
Current results

# delayed_write_rate = 1000 Kb/sec
Cumulative stall: 00:00:9.031 H:M:S

# delayed_write_rate = 200 Kb/sec

11526252cc Pinnableslice (2nd attempt)
Summary:
PinnableSlice

    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:

    value 100 byte: 1.8% regular, 1.2% merge values
    value 1k byte: 11.5% regular, 7.5% merge values
    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 d

72202962f9 fix db_sst_test flakiness
Summary:
db_sst_test had been flaky occasionally in the following way: reached_max_space_on_compaction can in very rare cases be 0. This happens when the limit on maximum allowable space set using SetMaxAllowedSpaceUsage is hit during flush for all test db sizes (1,2,4,8 and 10MB).The fix clears the error returned when the the space limit is reached during flush. This ensures that the compaction call back will always be called. The runtime is increased slightly because the 1MB loop writes more data and hits the limit during multiple flushes until compaction is scheduled.

58b12dfe37 Set logs as getting flushed before releasing lock, race condition fix
Summary:
Relating to #1903:

In MaybeFlushColumnFamilies() we want to modify the 'getting_flushed' flag before releasing the db mutex when SwitchMemtable() is called.

The following 2 actions need to be atomic in MaybeFlushColumnFamilies()
- getting_flushed is false on oldest log
- we determine that all CFs can be flushed to successfully release oldest log
- we set getting_flushed = true on the oldest log.
-------
- getting_flushed is false on oldest log
- we determine that all CFs can NOT be flushed to successfully release oldest log
- we set unable_to_flush_oldest_log_ = true on the oldest log.

#### In the 2pc case:

T1 enters function but is unable to flush all CFs to release log
T1 sets unable_to_flush_oldest_log_ = true
T1 begins flushing all CFs possible

T2 enters function but is unable to flush all CFs to release log
T2 sees unable_to_flush_oldes_log_ has been set so exits

T3 enters function and will be able to flush all CFs to release oldest log
T3 sets getting_flushed = true on oldes

534581a356 Fix a bug in tests in options operator=
Summary:
Note: Using the default operator= is an unsafe approach for Options since it destructs shared_ptr in
the same order of their creation, in contrast to destructors which
destructs them in the opposite order of creation. One particular problme is
that the cache destructor might invoke callback functions that use Option
members such as statistics. To work around this problem, we manually call
destructor of table_facotry which eventually clears the block cache.

Summary:
This is the metric I plan to use for adaptive rate limiting. The statistics are updated only if the rate limiter is drained by flush or compaction. I believe (but am not certain) that this is the normal case.

The Statistics object is passed in RateLimiter::Request() to avoid requiring changes to client code, which would've been necessary if we passed it in the RateLimiter constructor.

08864df212 Move advanced column family options to advanced_options.h
Summary:
For the sake of making our options simpler, we should keep options.h as simple as possible and move more advanced/less common options to advaned_options.h

I started with ColumnFamilyOptions and also did some re-ordering

I have moved all ColumnFamilyOptions to advanced_options.h and only left these options in options.h

```
const Comparator* comparator = BytewiseComparator();
std::shared_ptr<MergeOperator> merge_operator = nullptr;
const CompactionFilter* compaction_filter = nullptr;
std::shared_ptr<CompactionFilterFactory> compaction_filter_factory = nullptr;
size_t write_buffer_size = 64 << 20;
CompressionType compression;
int level0_file_num_compaction_trigger = 4;
bool disable_auto_compactions = false;
```
Please feel free to comment on specific options if you think they should be advanced or should not be

c6d464a9da Fixed various memory leaks and Java 8 JNI Compatibility
Summary:
I have manually audited the entire RocksJava code base.

Sorry for the large pull-request, I have broken it down into many small atomic commits though.

My initial intention was to fix the warnings that appear when running RocksJava on Java 8 with `-Xcheck:jni`, for example when running `make jtest` you would see many errors similar to:

```
WARNING in native method: JNI call made without checking exceptions when required to from CallObjectMethod
WARNING in native method: JNI call made without checking exceptions when required to from CallVoidMethod
WARNING in native method: JNI call made without checking exceptions when required to from CallStaticVoidMethod
...
```

A few of those warnings still remain, however they seem to come directly from the JVM and are not directly related to RocksJava; I am in contact with the OpenJDK hostpot-dev mailing list about these - http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-dev/2017-February/025981.html.

As a result of fixing these, I realised we were not r
