An iterator may automatically invoke reseeks.

Summary:
An iterator invokes reseek if the number of sequential skips over the
same userkey exceeds a configured number. This makes iter->Next()
faster (bacause of fewer key compares) if a large number of
adjacent internal keys in a table (sst or memtable) have the
same userkey.

Test Plan: Unit test DBTest.IterReseek.
