Summary:
In our testing cluster, we found large amount tombstone has been promoted to kValue type from kMerge after reaching the top level of compaction. Since we used to only collecting tombstone in merge operator, those tombstones can never be collected.
This PR addresses the issue by adding a GC step in compaction filter, which is only for kValue type records. Since those record already reached the top of compaction (no earlier data exists) we can safely remove them in compaction filter without worrying old data appears.
This PR also removes an old optimization in cassandra merge operator for single merge operands. We need to do GC even on a single operand, so the optimation does not make sense anymore.

Summary:
Major changes in this PR:
* Implement CassandraCompactionFilter to remove expired columns and rows (if all column expired)
* Move cassandra related code from utilities/merge_operators/cassandra to utilities/cassandra/*
* Switch to use shared_ptr<> from uniqu_ptr for Column membership management in RowValue. Since columns do have multiple owners in Merge and GC process, use shared_ptr helps make RowValue immutable.
* Rename cassandra_merge_test to cassandra_functional_test and add two TTL compaction related tests there.
