- Update TableProperties to be aware of the offset of each property in the file
- Update BlockBasedTableReader and Block to be able to honor the sequence number in `rocksdb.external_sst_file.global_seqno` property and use it to overwrite all sequence number in the file
Something worth mentioning is that we don't update the seqno in the index block since and when doing a binary search, the reason for that is that it's guaranteed that SST files with global seqno will have only one user_key and each key will have seqno=0 encoded in it, This mean that this key is greater than any other key with seqno> 0. That mean that we can actually keep the current logic for these blocks

Summary:
I was investigating performance issues in the SstFileWriter and found all of the following:
- The SstFileWriter::Add() function created a local InternalKey every time it was called generating a allocation and free each time. Changed to have an InternalKey member variable that can be reset with the new InternalKey::Set() function.
- In SstFileWriter::Add() the smallest_key and largest_key values were assigned the result of a ToString() call, but it is simpler to just assign them directly from the user's key.
- The Slice class had no move constructor so each time one was returned from a function a new one had to be allocated, the old data copied to the new, and the old one was freed. I added the move constructor which also required a copy constructor and assignment operator.
- The BlockBuilder::CurrentSizeEstimate() function calculates the current estimate size, but was being called 2 or 3 times for each key added. I changed the class to maintain a running estimate (equal to the original calculation) so that the function can return an already calculated value.
- The code in BlockBuilder::Add() that calculated the shared bytes between the last key and the new key duplicated what Slice::difference_offset does, so I replaced it with the standard function.
- BlockBuilder::Add() had code to copy just the changed portion into the last key value (and asserted that it now matched the new key). It is more efficient just to copy the whole new key over.
- Moved this same code up into the 'if (use_delta_encoding_)' since the last key value is only needed when delta encoding is on.
- FlushBlockBySizePolicy::BlockAlmostFull calculated a standard deviation value each time it was called, but this information would only change if block_size of block_size_deviation changed, so I created a member variable to hold the value to avoid the calculation each time.
- Each PutVarint??() function has a buffer and calls std::string::append(). Two or three calls in a row could share a buffer and a single call to std::string::append().
Some of these will be helpful outside of the SstFileWriter. I'm not 100% the addition of the move constructor is appropriate as I wonder why this wasn't done before - maybe because of compiler compatibility? I tried it on gcc 4.8 and 4.9.
Test Plan: The changes should not affect the results so the existing tests should all still work and no new tests were added. The value of the changes was seen by manually testing the SstFileWriter class through MyRocks and adding timing code to identify problem areas.

Summary:
This adds a new metablock containing a shared dictionary that is used
to compress all data blocks in the SST file. The size of the shared dictionary
is configurable in CompressionOptions and defaults to 0. It's currently only
used for zlib/lz4/lz4hc, but the block will be stored in the SST regardless of
the compression type if the user chooses a nonzero dictionary size.
During compaction, computes the dictionary by randomly sampling the first
output file in each subcompaction. It pre-computes the intervals to sample
by assuming the output file will have the maximum allowable length. In case
the file is smaller, some of the pre-computed sampling intervals can be beyond
end-of-file, in which case we skip over those samples and the dictionary will
be a bit smaller. After the dictionary is generated using the first file in a
subcompaction, it is loaded into the compression library before writing each
block in each subsequent file of that subcompaction.
On the read path, gets the dictionary from the metablock, if it exists. Then,
loads that dictionary into the compression library before reading each block.

Summary:
Currently, when we insert something into block cache, we say that the block cache capacity decreased by the size of the block. However, size of the block might be less than the actual memory used by this object. For example, 4.5KB block will actually use 8KB of memory. So even if we configure block cache to 10GB, our actually memory usage of block cache will be 20GB!
This problem showed up a lot in testing and just recently also showed up in MongoRocks production where we were using 30GB more memory than expected.
This diff will fix the problem. Instead of counting the block size, we will count memory used by the block. That way, a block cache configured to be 10GB will actually use only 10GB of memory.
I'm using non-portable function and I couldn't find info on portability on Google. However, it seems to work on Linux, which will cover majority of our use-cases.
Test Plan:
1. fill up mongo instance with 80GB of data
2. restart mongo with block cache size configured to 10GB
3. do a table scan in mongo
4. memory usage before the diff: 12GB. memory usage after the diff: 10.5GB

Added a new option to ColumnFamllyOptions - optimize_filters_for_hits. This option can be used in the case where most
accesses to the store are key hits and we dont need to optimize performance for key misses.
This is useful when you have a very large database and most of your lookups succeed. The option allows the store to
not store and use filters in the last level (the largest level which contains data). These filters can take a large amount of
space for large databases (in memory and on-disk). For the last level, these filters are only useful for key misses and not
for key hits. If we are not optimizing for key misses, we can choose to not store these filters for that level.
This option is only provided for BlockBasedTable. We skip the filters when we are compacting
Test Plan:
1. Modified db_test toalso run tests with an additonal option (skip_filters_on_last_level)
2. Added another unit test to db_test which specifically tests that filters are being skipped

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.
