Summary: By default options.ttl is disabled. We believe a better default will be 30 days, which means deleted data the database will be removed from SST files slightly after 30 days, for most of the cases. Make the default UINT64_MAX - 1 to indicate that it is not overridden by users. Change periodic_compaction_seconds to be UINT64_MAX - 1 to UINT64_MAX too to be consistent. Also fix a small bug in the previous periodic_compaction_seconds default code. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6073 Test Plan: Add unit tests for it.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key-value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
