Peter Dillinger 311a544c2a Use deleters to label cache entries and collect stats (#8297)
Summary:
This change gathers and publishes statistics about the
kinds of items in block cache. This is especially important for
profiling relative usage of cache by index vs. filter vs. data blocks.
It works by iterating over the cache during periodic stats dump
(InternalStats, stats_dump_period_sec) or on demand when
DB::Get(Map)Property(kBlockCacheEntryStats), except that for
efficiency and sharing among column families, saved data from
the last scan is used when the data is not considered too old.

The new information can be seen in info LOG, for example:

    Block cache LRUCache@0x7fca62229330 capacity: 95.37 MB collections: 8 last_copies: 0 last_secs: 0.00178 secs_since: 0
    Block cache entry stats(count,size,portion): DataBlock(7092,28.24 MB,29.6136%) FilterBlock(215,867.90 KB,0.888728%) FilterMetaBlock(2,5.31 KB,0.00544%) IndexBlock(217,180.11 KB,0.184432%) WriteBuffer(1,256.00 KB,0.262144%) Misc(1,0.00 KB,0%)

And also through DB::GetProperty and GetMapProperty (here using
ldb just for demonstration):

Solution detail - We need some way to flag what kind of blocks each
entry belongs to, preferably without changing the Cache API.
One of the complications is that Cache is a general interface that could
have other users that don't adhere to whichever convention we decide
on for keys and values. Or we would pay for an extra field in the Handle
that would only be used for this purpose.

This change uses a back-door approach, the deleter, to indicate the
"role" of a Cache entry (in addition to the value type, implicitly).
This has the added benefit of ensuring proper code origin whenever we
recognize a particular role for a cache entry; if the entry came from
some other part of the code, it will use an unrecognized deleter, which
we simply attribute to the "Misc" role.

An internal API makes for simple instantiation and automatic
registration of Cache deleters for a given value type and "role".

Another internal API, CacheEntryStatsCollector, solves the problem of
caching the results of a scan and sharing them, to ensure scans are
neither excessive nor redundant so as not to harm Cache performance.

Because code is added to BlocklikeTraits, it is pulled out of
block_based_table_reader.cc into its own file.

This is a reformulation of https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8276, without the type checking option
(could still be added), and with actual stat gathering.

This directory contains interfaces and implementations that isolate the
rest of the package from platform details.

Code in the rest of the package includes "port.h" from this directory.
"port.h" in turn includes a platform specific "port_<platform>.h" file
that provides the platform specific implementation.

See port_posix.h for an example of what must be provided in a platform
specific header file.
