Summary:
... by bypassing tracking of last_key in BlockBuilder when
last_key is already known (for BlockBasedTableBuilder::data_block).
I tried extracting a base class of BlockBuilder without the last_key
tracking at all, but that became complicated by NewFlushBlockPolicy() in
the public API referencing BlockBuilder, which would need to be the base
class, and I don't want to replace nearly all the internal references to
BlockBuilder.
Possible follow-up:
* Investigate / consider using AddWithLastKey in more places
