014fd55adc Support for SingleDelete()
Summary:
This patch fixes #7460559. It introduces SingleDelete as a new database
operation. This operation can be used to delete keys that were never
overwritten (no put following another put of the same key). If an overwritten
key is single deleted the behavior is undefined. Single deletion of a
non-existent key has no effect but multiple consecutive single deletions are
not allowed (see limitations).

In contrast to the conventional Delete() operation, the deletion entry is
removed along with the value when the two are lined up in a compaction. Note:
The semantics are similar to @igor's prototype that allowed to have this
behavior on the granularity of a column family (
https://reviews.facebook.net/D42093 ). This new patch, however, is more
aggressive when it comes to removing tombstones: It removes the SingleDelete
together with the value whenever there is no snapshot between them while the
older patch only did this when the sequence number of the deletion was older
than the earliest snapshot.

Most of the complex additions are in the Compaction Iterator, all other changes
should be relatively straightforward. The patch also includes basic support for
single deletions in db_stress and db_bench.

Limitations:
- Not compatible with cuckoo hash tables
- Single deletions cannot be used in combination with merges and normal
  deletions on the same key (other keys are not affected by this)
- Consecutive single deletions are currently not allowed (and older version of
  this patch supported this so it could be resurrected if needed)

ddb950f83f Fixed bug in compaction iterator
Summary:
During the refactoring, the condition that makes sure that compaction
filters are only applied to records newer than the latest snapshot
got butchered. This patch fixes the condition and adds a test case.

Test Plan: make db_compaction_filter_test && ./db_compaction_filter_test

c25f6a85bf Removed __unused__ attribute
Summary:
The current build is failing on some platforms due to an __unused__ attribute.
This patch prevents the problem by using a pattern similar to MergeHelper
(assert not on the variable but inside a condition that uses the variable). We
should have better error handling in both cases in the future.

8aa1f15197 Refactored common code of Builder/CompactionJob out into a CompactionIterator
Summary:
Builder and CompactionJob share a lot of fairly complex code. This patch
refactors this code into a separate class, the CompactionIterator. Because the
shared code is fairly complex, this patch hopefully improves maintainability.
While there are is a lot of potential for further improvements, the patch is
intentionally pretty close to the original structure because the change is
already complex enough.

Test Plan: make clean all check && ./db_stress
