Summary:
Previously we only had a debug assertion to check the right generator was being used for verification. However a user hit a problem in production where their factory was creating the wrong generator for some files, leading to checksum mismatches. It would have been easier to debug if we verified in optimized builds that the generator with the proper name is used. This PR adds such verification.

* When verifying full file checksum with `DB::VerifyFileChecksums()`, we now fail with `Status::InvalidArgument` if the name of the checksum generator used for verification does not match the name of the checksum generator used for protecting the file when it was created.
## 6.16.0 (12/18/2020)
### Behavior Changes
* Attempting to write a merge operand without explicitly configuring `merge_operator` now fails immediately, causing the DB to enter read-only mode. Previously, failure was deferred until the `merge_operator` was needed by a user read or a background operation.
