Summary:
Open-source users recently reported two occurrences of LSM-tree corruption (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5558 is one), which would be caught by options.force_consistency_checks = true. options.force_consistency_checks has a usability limitation because it crashes the service once inconsistency is detected. This makes the feature hard to use. Most users serve from multiple RocksDB shards per server and the impacts of crashing the service is higher than it should be.
Instead, we just pass the error back to users without killing the service, and ask them to deal with the problem accordingly.

* Fix bloom filter lookups by the MultiGet batching API when BlockBasedTableOptions::whole_key_filtering is false, by checking that a key is in the perfix_extractor domain and extracting the prefix before looking up.
### New Features
* VerifyChecksum() by default will issue readahead. Allow ReadOptions to be passed in to those functions to override the readhead size. For checksum verifying before external SST file ingestion, a new option IngestExternalFileOptions.verify_checksums_readahead_size, is added for this readahead setting.
* When user uses options.force_consistency_check in RocksDb, instead of crashing the process, we now pass the error back to the users without killing the process.
### Public API Change
* Added max_write_buffer_size_to_maintain option to better control memory usage of immutable memtables.
