Summary:
Add PreReleaseCallback to be called at the end of WriteImpl but before publishing the sequence number. The callback is used in WritePrepareTxn to i) update the commit map, ii) update the last published sequence number in the 2nd write queue. It also ensures that all the commits will go to the 2nd queue.
These changes will ensure that the commit map is updated before the sequence number is published and used by reading snapshots. If we use two write queues, the snapshots will use the seq number published by the 2nd queue. If we use one write queue (the default, the snapshots will use the last seq number in the memtable, which also indicates the last published seq number.

Summary:
The motivation for this PR is to add to RocksDB support for differential (incremental) snapshots, as snapshot of the DB changes between two points in time (one can think of it as diff between to sequence numbers, or the diff D which can be thought of as an SST file or just set of KVs that can be applied to sequence number S1 to get the database to the state at sequence number S2).
This feature would be useful for various distributed storages layers built on top of RocksDB, as it should help reduce resources (time and network bandwidth) needed to recover and rebuilt DB instances as replicas in the context of distributed storages.
From the API standpoint that would like client app requesting iterator between (start seqnum) and current DB state, and reading the "diff".
This is a very draft PR for initial review in the discussion on the approach, i'm going to rework some parts and keep updating the PR.
For now, what's done here according to initial discussions:
Preserving deletes:
- We want to be able to optionally preserve recent deletes for some defined period of time, so that if a delete came in recently and might need to be included in the next incremental snapshot it would't get dropped by a compaction. This is done by adding new param to Options (preserve deletes flag) and new variable to DB Impl where we keep track of the sequence number after which we don't want to drop tombstones, even if they are otherwise eligible for deletion.
- I also added a new API call for clients to be able to advance this cutoff seqnum after which we drop deletes; i assume it's more flexible to let clients control this, since otherwise we'd need to keep some kind of timestamp < -- > seqnum mapping inside the DB, which sounds messy and painful to support. Clients could make use of it by periodically calling GetLatestSequenceNumber(), noting the timestamp, doing some calculation and figuring out by how much we need to advance the cutoff seqnum.
- Compaction codepath in compaction_iterator.cc has been modified to avoid dropping tombstones with seqnum > cutoff seqnum.
Iterator changes:
- couple params added to ReadOptions, to optionally allow client to request internal keys instead of user keys (so that client can get the latest value of a key, be it delete marker or a put), as well as min timestamp and min seqnum.
TableCache changes:
- I modified table_cache code to be able to quickly exclude SST files from iterators heep if creation_time on the file is less then iter_start_ts as passed in ReadOptions. That would help a lot in some DB settings (like reading very recent data only or using FIFO compactions), but not so much for universal compaction with more or less long iterator time span.
What's left:
- Still looking at how to best plug that inside DBIter codepath. So far it seems that FindNextUserKeyInternal only parses values as UserKeys, and iter->key() call generally returns user key. Can we add new API to DBIter as internal_key(), and modify this internal method to optionally set saved_key_ to point to the full internal key? I don't need to store actual seqnum there, but I do need to store type.

Summary:
Throughput: 46k tps in our sysbench settings (filling the details later)
The idea is to have the simplest change that gives us a reasonable boost
in 2PC throughput.
Major design changes:
1. The WAL file internal buffer is not flushed after each write. Instead
it is flushed before critical operations (WAL copy via fs) or when
FlushWAL is called by MySQL. Flushing the WAL buffer is also protected
via mutex_.
2. Use two sequence numbers: last seq, and last seq for write. Last seq
is the last visible sequence number for reads. Last seq for write is the
next sequence number that should be used to write to WAL/memtable. This
allows to have a memtable write be in parallel to WAL writes.
3. BatchGroup is not used for writes. This means that we can have
parallel writers which changes a major assumption in the code base. To
accommodate for that i) allow only 1 WriteImpl that intends to write to
memtable via mem_mutex_--which is fine since in 2PC almost all of the memtable writes
come via group commit phase which is serial anyway, ii) make all the
parts in the code base that assumed to be the only writer (via
EnterUnbatched) to also acquire mem_mutex_, iii) stat updates are
protected via a stat_mutex_.
Note: the first commit has the approach figured out but is not clean.
Submitting the PR anyway to get the early feedback on the approach. If
we are ok with the approach I will go ahead with this updates:
0) Rebase with Yi's pipelining changes
1) Currently batching is disabled by default to make sure that it will be
consistent with all unit tests. Will make this optional via a config.
2) A couple of unit tests are disabled. They need to be updated with the
serial commit of 2PC taken into account.
3) Replacing BatchGroup with mem_mutex_ got a bit ugly as it requires
releasing mutex_ beforehand (the same way EnterUnbatched does). This
needs to be cleaned up.

If there is a long-held snapshot, this could reduce the benefit of the SingleDelete optimization.
This diff allows Transactions to mark snapshots as being used for write-conflict checking. Then, during compaction, we will be able to optimize SingleDeletes better in the future.
This diff adds a flag to SnapshotImpl which is used by Transactions. This diff also passes the earliest write-conflict snapshot's sequence number to CompactionIterator. This diff does not actually change Compaction (after this diff is pushed, D50295 will be able to use this information).

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)

uses this state to update its statistics, keep track of its snapshots, etc.

Summary:
While working on supporting mixing merge operators with
single deletes ( https://reviews.facebook.net/D43179 ),
I realized that returning and dealing with merge results
can be made simpler. Submitting this as a separate diff
because it is not directly related to single deletes.
Before, callers of merge helper had to retrieve the merge
result in one of two ways depending on whether the merge
was successful or not (success = result of merge was single
kTypeValue). For successful merges, the caller could query
the resulting key/value pair and for unsuccessful merges,
the result could be retrieved in the form of two deques of
keys and values. However, with single deletes, a successful merge
does not return a single key/value pair (if merge
operands are merged with a single delete, we have to generate
a value and keep the original single delete around to make
sure that we are not accidentially producing a key overwrite).
In addition, the two existing call sites of the merge
helper were taking the same actions independently from whether
the merge was successful or not, so this patch simplifies that.

Summary:
The goal of this diff is to make Compaction class easier to use. This should also make new compaction algorithms easier to write (like CompactFiles from @yhchiang and dynamic leveled and multi-leveled universal from @sdong).
Here are couple of things demonstrating that Compaction class is hard to use:
1. we have two constructors of Compaction class
2. there's this thing called grandparents_, but it appears to only be setup for leveled compaction and not compactfiles
3. it's easy to introduce a subtle and dangerous bug like this: D36225
4. SetupBottomMostLevel() is hard to understand and it shouldn't be. See this comment: afbafeaeae/db/compaction.cc (L236-L241). It also made it harder for @yhchiang to write CompactFiles, as evidenced by this: afbafeaeae/db/compaction_picker.cc (L204-L210)
The problem is that we create Compaction object, which holds a lot of state, and then pass it around to some functions. After those functions are done mutating, then we call couple of functions on Compaction object, like SetupBottommostLevel() and MarkFilesBeingCompacted(). It is very hard to see what's happening with all that Compaction's state while it's travelling across different functions. If you're writing a new PickCompaction() function you need to try really hard to understand what are all the functions you need to run on Compaction object and what state you need to setup.
My proposed solution is to make important parts of Compaction immutable after construction. PickCompaction() should calculate compaction inputs and then pass them onto Compaction object once they are finalized. That makes it easy to create a new compaction -- just provide all the parameters to the constructor and you're done. No need to call confusing functions after you created your object.
This diff doesn't fully achieve that goal, but it comes pretty close. Here are some of the changes:
* have one Compaction constructor instead of two.
* inputs_ is constant after construction
* MarkFilesBeingCompacted() is now private to Compaction class and automatically called on construction/destruction.
* SetupBottommostLevel() is gone. Compaction figures it out on its own based on the input.
* CompactionPicker's functions are not passing around Compaction object anymore. They are only passing around the state that they need.
