Summary:
Right now we use one hard-coded prefetch size to prefetch data from the tail of the SST files. However, this may introduce a waste for some use cases, while not efficient for others.
Introduce a way to adjust this prefetch size by tracking 32 recent times, and pick a value with which the wasted read is less than 10%

Summary:
Copy data between buffers inside FilePrefetchBuffer only when chunk length is greater than 0. Otherwise AlignedBuffer was accessing memory out of its range causing crashes.
Removing the tracking of buffer length outside of `AlignedBuffer`, i.e. in `FilePrefetchBuffer` and `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile`, will follow in a separate PR, as it is not the root cause of the crash reported in #4051. (`FilePrefetchBuffer` itself has been this way from its inception, and `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` was updated to add the buffer length at some point).
Comprehensive tests for `FilePrefetchBuffer` also to follow in a separate PR.

Summary:
This PR extends the improvements in #3282 to also work when using Direct IO.
We see **4.5X performance improvement** in seekrandom benchmark doing long range scans, when using direct reads, on flash.
**Description:**
This change improves the performance of iterators doing long range scans (e.g. big/full index or table scans in MyRocks) by using readahead and prefetching additional data on each disk IO, and storing in a local buffer. This prefetching is automatically enabled on noticing more than 2 IOs for the same table file during iteration. The readahead size starts with 8KB and is exponentially increased on each additional sequential IO, up to a max of 256 KB. This helps in cutting down the number of IOs needed to complete the range scan.
**Implementation Details:**
- Used `FilePrefetchBuffer` as the underlying buffer to store the readahead data. `FilePrefetchBuffer` can now take file_reader, readahead_size and max_readahead_size as input to the constructor, and automatically do readahead.
- `FilePrefetchBuffer::TryReadFromCache` can now call `FilePrefetchBuffer::Prefetch` if readahead is enabled.
- `AlignedBuffer` (which is the underlying store for `FilePrefetchBuffer`) now takes a few additional args in `AlignedBuffer::AllocateNewBuffer` to allow copying data from the old buffer.
- Made sure not to re-read partial chunks of data that were already available in the buffer, from device again.
- Fixed a couple of cases where `AlignedBuffer::cursize_` was not being properly kept up-to-date.
**Constraints:**
- Similar to #3282, this gets currently enabled only when ReadOptions.readahead_size = 0 (which is the default value).
- Since the prefetched data is stored in a temporary buffer allocated on heap, this could increase the memory usage if you have many iterators doing long range scans simultaneously.
- Enabled only for user reads, and disabled for compactions. Compaction reads are controlled by the options `use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction` and `compaction_readahead_size`, and the current feature takes precautions not to mess with them.
**Benchmarks:**
I used the same benchmark as used in #3282.

Summary:
Previously `DBOptions::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction=true` combined with `DBOptions::use_direct_reads=false` could cause RocksDB to simultaneously read from two file descriptors for the same file, where background reads used direct I/O and foreground reads used buffered I/O. Our measurements found this mixed-mode I/O negatively impacted foreground read perf, compared to when only buffered I/O was used.
This PR makes the mixed-mode I/O situation impossible by repurposing `DBOptions::use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction` to only apply to background writes, and `DBOptions::use_direct_reads` to apply to all reads. There is no risk of direct background direct writes happening simultaneously with buffered reads since we never read from and write to the same file simultaneously.

Summary:
`ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` had an unwritten assumption, which was that its wrapped file's `Read()` function always copies into the provided scratch buffer. Actually this was not true when the wrapped file was `PosixMmapReadableFile`, whose `Read()` implementation does no copying and instead returns a `Slice` pointing directly into the `mmap`'d memory region. This PR:
- prevents `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` from ever wrapping mmap readable files
- adds an assert for the assumption `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` makes about the wrapped file's use of scratch buffer

In attempting to build a static lib for use in iOS, I ran in to lots of type errors between uint64_t and size_t. This PR contains the changes I made to get `TARGET_OS=IOS make static_lib` to succeed while also getting Xcode to build successfully with the resulting `librocksdb.a` library imported.
This also compiles for me on macOS and tests fine, but I'm really not sure if I made the correct decisions about where to `static_cast` and where to change types.
Also up for discussion: is iOS worth supporting? Getting the static lib is just part one, we aren't providing any bridging headers or wrappers like the ObjectiveRocks project, it won't be a great experience.

Summary:
`ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` is used by iterators for file reads in several cases, like in compaction when `compaction_readahead_size > 0` or `use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction == true`, or in user iterator when `ReadOptions::readahead_size > 0`. `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile` maintains an internal buffer for readahead data. It assumes that, if the buffer's length is less than `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile::readahead_size_`, which is fixed in the constructor, then EOF has been reached so it doesn't try reading further.
Recently, d938226af4 started calling `RandomAccessFile::Prefetch` with various lengths: 8KB, 16KB, etc. When the `RandomAccessFile` is a `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile`, it triggers the above condition and incorrectly determines EOF. If a block is partially in the readahead buffer and EOF is incorrectly decided, the result is a truncated data block.
The problem is reproducible:
```

Summary:
Right now, if direct I/O is enabled, prefetching the last 512KB cannot be applied, except compaction inputs or readahead is enabled for iterators. This can create a lot of I/O for HDD cases. To solve the problem, the 512KB is prefetched in block based table if direct I/O is enabled. The prefetched buffer is passed in totegher with random access file reader, so that we try to read from the buffer before reading from the file. This can be extended in the future to support flexible user iterator readahead too.

Summary:
Currently for direct I/O, the large maximum buffer is always allocated. This will be wasteful if users flush the data in much smaller chunks. This diff fix this by changing the behavior of incremental buffer works. When we enlarge buffer, we try to copy the existing data in the buffer to the enlarged buffer, rather than flush the buffer first. This can make sure that no extra I/O is introduced because of buffer enlargement.

in 64-bit.
Currently, a signed off_t type is being used for the following
interfaces for both offset and the length in bytes:
* `Allocate`
* `RangeSync`
On Linux `off_t` is automatically either 32 or 64-bit depending on
the platform. On Windows it is always a 32-bit signed long which
limits file access and in particular space pre-allocation
to effectively 2 Gb.
Proposal is to replace off_t with uint64_t as a portable type
always access files with 64-bit interfaces.
May need to modify posix code but lack resources to test it.

Summary. A change https://reviews.facebook.net/differential/diff/224721/
Has attempted to move common functionality out of platform dependent
code to a new facility called file_reader_writer.
This includes:
- perf counters
- Buffering
- RateLimiting
However, the change did not attempt to refactor Windows code.
To mitigate, we introduce new quering interfaces such as UseOSBuffer(),
GetRequiredBufferAlignment() and ReaderWriterForward()
for pure forwarding where required.
Introduce WritableFile got a new method Truncate(). This is to communicate
to the file as to how much data it has on close.
- When space is pre-allocated on Linux it is filled with zeros implicitly,
no such thing exist on Windows so we must truncate file on close.
- When operating in unbuffered mode the last page is filled with zeros but we still want to truncate.
Previously, Close() would take care of it but now buffer management is shifted to the wrappers and the file has
no idea about the file true size.
This means that Close() on the wrapper level must always include
Truncate() as well as wrapper __dtor should call Close() and
against double Close().
Move buffered/unbuffered write logic to the wrapper.
Utilize Aligned buffer class.
Adjust tests and implement Truncate() where necessary.
Come up with reasonable defaults for new virtual interfaces.
Forward calls for RandomAccessReadAhead class to avoid double
buffering and locking (double locking in unbuffered mode on WIndows).
Summary:
This patch adds the helper functions and variables to allow a backend
implementing WritableFile to support direct IO when persisting a
memtable.
Test Plan:
Since there is no upstream implementation of WritableFile supporting
direct IO, the new behavior is disabled.
Tests should be provided by the backend implementing WritableFile.
Summary:
ReadaheadRandomAccessFile acts as a transparent layer on top of RandomAccessFile. When a Read() request is issued, it issues a much bigger request to the OS and caches the result. When a new request comes in and we already have the data cached, it doesn't have to issue any requests to the OS.
We add ReadaheadRandomAccessFile layer only when file is read during compactions.
