Igor Canadi a7e80379b0 LogAndApply() should fail if the column family has been dropped
Summary:
This patch finally fixes the ColumnFamilyTest.ReadDroppedColumnFamily test. The test has been failing very sporadically and it was hard to repro. However, I managed to write a new tests that reproes the failure deterministically.

Here's what happens:
1. We start the flush for the column family
2. We check if the column family was dropped here: a3fc49bfdd/db/flush_job.cc (L149)
3. This check goes through, ends up in InstallMemtableFlushResults() and it goes into LogAndApply()
4. At about this time, we start dropping the column family. Dropping the column family process gets to LogAndApply() at about the same time as LogAndApply() from flush process
5. Drop column family goes through LogAndApply() first, marking the column family as dropped.
6. Flush process gets woken up and gets a chance to write to the MANIFEST. However, this is where it gets stuck: a3fc49bfdd/db/version_set.cc (L1975)
7. We see that the column family was dropped, so there is no need to write to the MANIFEST. We return OK.
8. Flush gets OK back from LogAndApply() and it deletes the memtable, thinking that the data is now safely persisted to sst file.

The fix is pretty simple. Instead of OK, we return ShutdownInProgress. This is not really true, but we have been using this status code to also mean "this operation was canceled because the column family has been dropped".

The fix is only one LOC. All other code is related to tests. I added a new test that reproes the failure. I also moved SleepingBackgroundTask to util/testutil.h (because I needed it in column_family_test for my new test). There's plenty of other places where we reimplement SleepingBackgroundTask, but I'll address that in a separate commit.

Test Plan:
1. new test
2. make check
3. Make sure the ColumnFamilyTest.ReadDroppedColumnFamily doesn't fail on Travis: https://travis-ci.org/facebook/rocksdb/jobs/79952386

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage

Build Status

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 specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.

Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples

See the github wiki for more explanation.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those internal APIs may be changed without warning.

Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
