Summary: For iterator reads, a `SuperVersion` is pinned to preserve a snapshot of SST files, and `Block`s are pinned to allow `key()` and `value()` to return pointers directly into a RocksDB memory region. This works for both non-mmap reads, where the block owns the memory region, and mmap reads, where the file owns the memory region. For point reads with `PinnableSlice`, only the `Block` object is pinned. This works for non-mmap reads because the block owns the memory region, so even if the file is deleted after compaction, the memory region survives. However, for mmap reads, file deletion causes the memory region to which the `PinnableSlice` refers to be unmapped. The result is usually a segfault upon accessing the `PinnableSlice`, although sometimes it returned wrong results (I repro'd this a bunch of times with `db_stress`). This PR copies the value into the `PinnableSlice` when it comes from mmap'd memory. We can tell whether the `Block` owns its memory using `Block::cachable()`, which is unset when reads do not use the provided buffer as is the case with mmap file reads. When that is false we ensure the result of `Get()` is copied. This feels like a short-term solution as ideally we'd have the `PinnableSlice` pin the mmap'd memory so we can do zero-copy reads. It seemed hard so I chose this approach to fix correctness in the meantime.

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.
