Summary:
FileOptions has an implicit conversion from EnvOptions and some
internal APIs take `const FileOptions&` and save the reference, which is
counter to Google C++ guidelines,
> Avoid defining functions that require a const reference parameter to outlive the call, because const reference parameters bind to temporaries. Instead, find a way to eliminate the lifetime requirement (for example, by copying the parameter), or pass it by const pointer and document the lifetime and non-null requirements.
This is at least a problem for repair.cc, which passes an EnvOptions to
TableCache(), which would save a reference to the temporary copy as
FileOptions. This was unfortunately only caught as a side effect of
changes in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8544.
This change fixes the repair.cc case and updates the involved internal
APIs that save a reference to use `const FileOptions*` instead.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to get any of our sanitizers to reliably
report bugs like this, so I can't rule out more existing in our
codebase.
