Unified InlineSkipList::Insert algorithm with hinting

Summary:
This PR is based on nbronson's diff with small
modifications to wire it up with existing interface. Comparing to
previous version, this approach works better for inserting keys in
decreasing order or updating the same key, and impose less restriction
to the prefix extractor.

---- Summary from original diff ----

This diff introduces a single InlineSkipList::Insert that unifies
the existing sequential insert optimization (prev_), concurrent insertion,
and insertion using externally-managed insertion point hints.

There's a deep symmetry between insertion hints (cursors) and the
concurrent algorithm.  In both cases we have partial information from
the recent past that is likely but not certain to be accurate.  This diff
introduces the struct InlineSkipList::Splice, which encodes predecessor
and successor information in the same form that was previously only used
within a single call to InsertConcurrently.  Splice holds information
about an insertion point that can be used to levera
