Summary:
Currently RocksDB silently ignores this issue and doesn't compress the data. Based on discussion, we agree that this is pretty bad because it can cause confusion for our users.
This patch fails DB::Open() if we don't support the compression that is specified in the options.
Test Plan: make check with LZ4 not present. If Snappy is not present all tests will just fail because Snappy is our default library. We should make Snappy the requirement, since without it our default DB::Open() fails.

Summary: Now we add warnings when user configures compression and the compression is not supported.
Test Plan:
Configured compression to non-supported values. Observed messages in my log:
2015/03/26-12:17:57.586341 7ffb8a496840 [WARN] Compression type chosen for level 2 is not supported: LZ4. RocksDB will not compress data on level 2.
2015/03/26-12:19:10.768045 7f36f15c5840 [WARN] Compression type chosen is not supported: LZ4. RocksDB will not compress data.

Summary:
This diff adds BlockBasedTable format_version = 2. New format version brings better compressed block format for these compressions:
1) Zlib -- encode decompressed size in compressed block header
2) BZip2 -- encode decompressed size in compressed block header
3) LZ4 and LZ4HC -- instead of doing memcpy of size_t encode size as varint32. memcpy is very bad because the DB is not portable accross big/little endian machines or even platforms where size_t might be 8 or 4 bytes.
It does not affect format for snappy.
If you write a new database with format_version = 2, it will not be readable by RocksDB versions before 3.10. DB::Open() will return corruption in that case.
Test Plan:
Added a new test in db_test.
I will also run db_bench and verify VSIZE when block_cache == 1GB

Summary: We keep checksum functions in util/, there is no reason for compression to be in port/
