WritableFileWriter tries to skip operations after failure (#10489)

Summary:
A flag in WritableFileWriter is introduced to remember error has happened. Subsequent operations will fail with an assertion. Those operations, except Close() are not supposed to be called anyway. This change will help catch bug in tests and stress tests and limit damage of a potential bug of continue writing to a file after a failure.

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/10489

Test Plan: Fix existing unit tests and watch crash tests for a while.

 * PosixLogger is removed and by default EnvLogger will be used for info logging. The behavior of the two loggers should be very similar when using the default Posix Env.
 * Remove [min|max]_timestamp from VersionEdit for now since they are not tracked in MANIFEST anyway but consume two empty std::string (up to 64 bytes) for each file. Should they be added back in the future, we should store them more compactly.
 * Improve universal tiered storage compaction picker to avoid extra major compaction triggered by size amplification. If `preclude_last_level_data_seconds` is enabled, the size amplification is calculated within non last_level data only which skip the last level and use the penultimate level as the size base.
+* If an error is hit when writing to a file (append, sync, etc), RocksDB is more strict with not issuing more operations to it, except closing the file, with exceptions of some WAL file operations in error recovery path.
 
 ### Performance Improvements
 * Instead of constructing `FragmentedRangeTombstoneList` during every read operation, it is now constructed once and stored in immutable memtables. This improves speed of querying range tombstones from immutable memtables.
