Summary:
XXH3 - latest hash function that is extremely fast on large
data, easily faster than crc32c on most any x86_64 hardware. In
integrating this hash function, I have handled the compression type byte
in a non-standard way to avoid using the streaming API (extra data
movement and active code size because of hash function complexity). This
approach got a thumbs-up from Yann Collet.
Existing functionality change:
* reject bad ChecksumType in options with InvalidArgument
This change split off from https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9058 because context-aware checksum is
likely to be handled through different configuration than ChecksumType.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9069
Test Plan:
tests updated, and substantially expanded. Unit tests now check
that we don't accidentally change the values generated by the checksum
algorithms ("schema test") and that we properly handle
invalid/unrecognized checksum types in options or in file footer.
DBTestBase::ChangeOptions (etc.) updated from two to one configuration
changing from default CRC32c ChecksumType. The point of this test code
is to detect possible interactions among features, and the likelihood of
some bad interaction being detected by including configurations other
than XXH3 and CRC32c--and then not detected by stress/crash test--is
extremely low.
Stress/crash test also updated (manual run long enough to see it accepts
new checksum type). db_bench also updated for microbenchmarking
checksums.

As you can see, especially once warmed up, xxh3 is fastest.

* Added new ChecksumType kXXH3 which is faster than kCRC32c on almost all x86\_64 hardware.

### Bug Fixes
* Prevent a `CompactRange()` with `CompactRangeOptions::change_level == true` from possibly causing corruption to the LSM state (overlapping files within a level) when run in parallel with another manual compaction. Note that setting `force_consistency_checks == true` (the default) would cause the DB to enter read-only mode in this scenario and return `Status::Corruption`, rather than committing any corruption.
