Summary:
Added a flag, `ignore_unknown_options`, to skip unknown options when loading an options file (using `LoadLatestOptions`/`LoadOptionsFromFile`) or while verifying options (using `CheckOptionsCompatibility`). This will help in downgrading the db to an older version.
Also added `--ignore_unknown_options` flag to ldb
**Example Use case:**
In MyRocks, if copying from newer version to older version, it is often impossible to start because of new RocksDB options that don't exist in older version, even though data format is compatible.
MyRocks uses these load and verify functions in [ha_rocksdb.cc::check_rocksdb_options_compatibility](
