Summary: ldb and sst_dump are most important tools and they don't dependend on gflags. In cmake, we don't have an way to only build these two tools and exclude other tools. This is inconvenient if the environment has a problem with gflags. Add such an option WITH_CORE_TOOLS. Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6506 Test Plan: cmake and build with WITH_TOOLS and without.

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.
