Summary:
Persistent cache tier is the tier abstraction that can work for any block
device based device mounted on a file system. The design/implementation can
handle any generic block device.
Any generic block support is achieved by generalizing the access patten as
{io-size, q-depth, direct-io/buffered}.
We have specifically tested and adapted the IO path for NVM and SSD.
Persistent cache tier consists of there parts :
1) File layout
Provides the implementation for handling IO path for reading and writing data
(key/value pair).
2) Meta-data
Provides the implementation for handling the index for persistent read cache.
3) Implementation
It binds (1) and (2) and flushed out the PersistentCacheTier interface
This patch provides implementation for (1)(2). Follow up patch will provide (3)
and tests.
Test Plan: Compile and run check

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

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or
