Andrew Kryczka 9b18cc2363 single-file bottom-level compaction when snapshot released
Summary:
When snapshots are held for a long time, files may reach the bottom level containing overwritten/deleted keys. We previously had no mechanism to trigger compaction on such files. This particularly impacted DBs that write to different parts of the keyspace over time, as such files would never be naturally compacted due to second-last level files moving down. This PR introduces a mechanism for bottommost files to be recompacted upon releasing all snapshots that prevent them from dropping their deleted/overwritten keys.

- Changed `CompactionPicker` to compact files in `BottommostFilesMarkedForCompaction()`. These are the last choice when picking. Each file will be compacted alone and output to the same level in which it originated. The goal of this type of compaction is to rewrite the data excluding deleted/overwritten keys.
- Changed `ReleaseSnapshot()` to recompute the bottom files marked for compaction when the oldest existing snapshot changes, and schedule a compaction if needed. We cache the value that oldest existing snapshot needs to exceed in order for another file to be marked in `bottommost_files_mark_threshold_`, which allows us to avoid recomputing marked files for most snapshot releases.
- Changed `VersionStorageInfo` to track the list of bottommost files, which is recomputed every time the version changes by `UpdateBottommostFiles()`. The list of marked bottommost files is first computed in `ComputeBottommostFilesMarkedForCompaction()` when the version changes, but may also be recomputed when `ReleaseSnapshot()` is called.
- Extracted core logic of `Compaction::IsBottommostLevel()` into `VersionStorageInfo::RangeMightExistAfterSortedRun()` since logic to check whether a file is bottommost is now necessary outside of compaction.
