Summary: If users turn on concurrent insert but the memtable doesn't support it, they might see unexcepted crash. Fix it by explicitly fail.
Test Plan:
Run different setting of stress_test and make sure it fails correctly.
Will add a unit test too.

Summary:
This diff adds support for concurrent adds to the skiplist memtable
implementations. Memory allocation is made thread-safe by the addition of
a spinlock, with small per-core buffers to avoid contention. Concurrent
memtable writes are made via an additional method and don't impose a
performance overhead on the non-concurrent case, so parallelism can be
selected on a per-batch basis.
Write thread synchronization is an increasing bottleneck for higher levels
of concurrency, so this diff adds --enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield
(default off). This feature causes threads joining a write batch
group to spin for a short time (default 100 usec) using sched_yield,
rather than going to sleep on a mutex. If the timing of the yield calls
indicates that another thread has actually run during the yield then
spinning is avoided. This option improves performance for concurrent
situations even without parallel adds, although it has the potential to
increase CPU usage (and the heuristic adaptation is not yet mature).
Parallel writes are not currently compatible with
inplace updates, update callbacks, or delete filtering.
Enable it with --allow_concurrent_memtable_write (and
--enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield). Parallel memtable writes
are performance neutral when there is no actual parallelism, and in
my experiments (SSD server-class Linux and varying contention and key
sizes for fillrandom) they are always a performance win when there is
more than one thread.
Statistics are updated earlier in the write path, dropping the number
of DB mutex acquisitions from 2 to 1 for almost all cases.
This diff was motivated and inspired by Yahoo's cLSM work. It is more
conservative than cLSM: RocksDB's write batch group leader role is
preserved (along with all of the existing flush and write throttling
logic) and concurrent writers are blocked until all memtable insertions
have completed and the sequence number has been advanced, to preserve
linearizability.
My test config is "db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=$T
-batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=100 --num=1000000/$T
-level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999
-disable_auto_compactions --max_write_buffer_number=8
-max_background_flushes=8 --disable_wal --write_buffer_size=160000000
--block_size=16384 --allow_concurrent_memtable_write" on a two-socket
Xeon E5-2660 @ 2.2Ghz with lots of memory and an SSD hard drive. With 1
thread I get ~440Kops/sec. Peak performance for 1 socket (numactl
-N1) is slightly more than 1Mops/sec, at 16 threads. Peak performance
across both sockets happens at 30 threads, and is ~900Kops/sec, although
with fewer threads there is less performance loss when the system has
background work.

Summary:
This diff completes the creation of InlineSkipList<Cmp>, which is like
SkipList<const char*, Cmp> but it always allocates the key contiguously
with the node. This allows us to remove the pointer from the node
to the key. As a result the memory usage of the skip list is reduced
(by 1 to sizeof(void*) bytes depending on the padding required to align
the key storage), cache locality is improved, and we halve the number
of calls to the allocator.
For skip lists whose keys are freshly-allocated const char*,
InlineSkipList is stricly preferrable to SkipList. This diff doesn't
replace SkipList, however, because some of the use cases of SkipList in
RocksDB are either character sequences that are not allocated at the
same time as the skip list node allocation (for example
hash_linklist_rep) or have different key types (for example
write_batch_with_index). Taking advantage of inline allocation for
those cases is left to future work.
The perf win is biggest for small values. For single-threaded CPU-bound
(32M fillrandom operations with no WAL log) with 16 byte keys and 0 byte
values, the db_bench perf goes from ~310k ops/sec to ~410k ops/sec. For
large values the improvement is less pronounced, but seems to be between
5% and 10% on the same configuration.

Summary:
Add an option in GetApproximateSize() so that the result will include estimated sizes in mem tables.
To implement it, implement an estimated count from the beginning to a key in skip list. The approach is to count to find the entry, how many Next() is issued from each level, and sum them with a weight that is <branching factor> ^ <level>.

Summary:
This diff introduces the `lookahead` argument to `SkipListFactory()`. This is an
optimization for the tailing use case which includes many seeks. E.g. consider
the following operations on a skip list iterator:
Seek(x), Next(), Next(), Seek(x+2), Next(), Seek(x+3), Next(), Next(), ...
If `lookahead` is positive, `SkipListRep` will return an iterator which also
keeps track of the previously visited node. Seek() then first does a linear
search starting from that node (up to `lookahead` steps). As in the tailing
example above, this may require fewer than ~log(n) comparisons as with regular
skip list search.
Test Plan:
Added a new benchmark (`fillseekseq`) which simulates the usage pattern. It
first writes N records (with consecutive keys), then measures how much time it
takes to read them by calling `Seek()` and `Next()`.
$ time ./db_bench -num 10000000 -benchmarks fillseekseq -prefix_size 1 \

Summary:
In this patch, try to allocate the whole iterator tree starting from DBIter from an arena
1. ArenaWrappedDBIter is created when serves as the entry point of an iterator tree, with an arena in it.
2. Add an option to create iterator from arena for following iterators: DBIter, MergingIterator, MemtableIterator, all mem table's iterators, all table reader's iterators and two level iterator.
3. MergeIteratorBuilder is created to incrementally build the tree of internal iterators. It is passed to mem table list and version set and add iterators to it.
Limitations:
(1) Only DB::NewIterator() without tailing uses the arena. Other cases, including readonly DB and compactions are still from malloc
(2) Two level iterator itself is allocated in arena, but not iterators inside it.

dynamic case just happens to work because the 2 classes have the same
layout.
(2) Do not delete SliceTransform object in HashSkipListFactory and
HashLinkListFactory destructor. Reason: SanitizeOptions() enforces
prefix_extractor and SliceTransform to be the same object when
Hash**Factory is used. This makes the behavior strange: when
Hash**Factory is used, prefix_extractor will be released by RocksDB. If
other memtable factory is used, prefix_extractor should be released by
user.

Summary:
This patch adds three new MemTableRep's: UnsortedRep, PrefixHashRep, and VectorRep.
UnsortedRep stores keys in an std::unordered_map of std::sets. When an iterator is requested, it dumps the keys into an std::set and iterates over that.
VectorRep stores keys in an std::vector. When an iterator is requested, it creates a copy of the vector and sorts it using std::sort. The iterator accesses that new vector.
PrefixHashRep stores keys in an unordered_map mapping prefixes to ordered sets.
I also added one API change. I added a function MemTableRep::MarkImmutable. This function is called when the rep is added to the immutable list. It doesn't do anything yet, but it seems like that could be useful. In particular, for the vectorrep, it means we could elide the extra copy and just sort in place. The only reason I haven't done that yet is because the use of the ArenaAllocator complicates things (I can elaborate on this if needed).
