Dmitri Smirnov f4b72d7056 Provide a way to override windows memory allocator with jemalloc for ZSTD
Summary:
Windows does not have LD_PRELOAD mechanism to override all memory allocation functions and ZSTD makes use of C-tuntime calloc. During flushes and compactions default system allocator fragments and the system slows down considerably.

For builds with jemalloc we employ an advanced ZSTD context creation API that re-directs memory allocation to jemalloc. To reduce the cost of context creation on each block we cache ZSTD context within the block based table builder while a new SST file is being built, this will help all platform builds including those w/o jemalloc. This avoids system allocator fragmentation and improves the performance.

The change does not address random reads and currently on Windows reads with ZSTD regress as compared with SNAPPY compression.

This directory contains interfaces and implementations that isolate the
rest of the package from platform details.

Code in the rest of the package includes "port.h" from this directory.
"port.h" in turn includes a platform specific "port_<platform>.h" file
that provides the platform specific implementation.

See port_posix.h for an example of what must be provided in a platform
specific header file.
