Summary:
folly DistributedMutex is faster than standard mutexes though
imposes some static obligations on usage. See
https://github.com/facebook/folly/blob/main/folly/synchronization/DistributedMutex.h
for details. Here we use this alternative for our Cache implementations
(especially LRUCache) for better locking performance, when RocksDB is
compiled with folly.
Also added information about which distributed mutex implementation is
being used to cache_bench output and to DB LOG.
Intended follow-up:
* Use DMutex in more places, perhaps improving API to support non-scoped
locking
* Fix linking with fbcode compiler (needs ROCKSDB_NO_FBCODE=1 currently)

We don't have a CI running MinGW so it's hard to validate. since we now require C++17, it's hard to imagine MinGW would still build RocksDB but doesn't support std::numeric_limits<>.

* Upgrade to latest Ubuntu images for each release
* Generally prefer Ubuntu 20, but keep a couple Ubuntu 16 builds with oldest supported
compilers, to ensure compatibility
* Remove .circleci/cat_ignore_eagain except for Ubuntu 16 builds, because this is to work
around a kernel bug that should not affect anything but Ubuntu 16.
* Remove designated gcc-9 build, because the default linux build now uses GCC 9 from
Ubuntu 20.
* Add some `apt-key add` to fix some apt "couldn't be verified" errors
* Generally drop SKIP_LINK=1; work-around no longer needed
* Generally `add-apt-repository` before `apt-get update` as manual testing indicated the
reverse might not work.
Travis:
* Use gcc-7 by default (remove specific gcc-7 and gcc-4.8 builds)
* TODO in later PR: fix s390x "Assembler messages: Error: invalid switch -march=z14" failure

Summary:
The cyclic dependency was:
- `StressTest::OperateDb()` locks the mutex for key 'k'
- `StressTest::OperateDb()` calls a function like `PauseBackgroundWork()`, which waits for pending compaction to complete.
- The pending compaction reaches key `k` and `DbStressCompactionFilter::FilterV2()` calls `Lock()` on that key's mutex, which hangs forever.
The cycle can be broken by using a new function, `port::Mutex::TryLock()`, which returns immediately upon failure to acquire a lock. In that case `DbStressCompactionFilter::FilterV2()` can just decide to keep the key.

Summary:
Env::GenerateUniqueId() works fine on Windows and on POSIX
where /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid exists. Our other implementation is
flawed and easily produces collision in a new multi-threaded test.
As we rely more heavily on DB session ID uniqueness, this becomes a
serious issue.
This change combines several individually suitable entropy sources
for reliable generation of random unique IDs, with goal of uniqueness
and portability, not cryptographic strength nor maximum speed.
Specifically:
* Moves code for getting UUIDs from the OS to port::GenerateRfcUuid
rather than in Env implementation details. Callers are now told whether
the operation fails or succeeds.
* Adds an internal API GenerateRawUniqueId for generating high-quality
128-bit unique identifiers, by combining entropy from three "tracks":
* Lots of info from default Env like time, process id, and hostname.
* std::random_device
* port::GenerateRfcUuid (when working)
* Built-in implementations of Env::GenerateUniqueId() will now always
produce an RFC 4122 UUID string, either from platform-specific API or
by converting the output of GenerateRawUniqueId.
DB session IDs now use GenerateRawUniqueId while DB IDs (not as
critical) try to use port::GenerateRfcUuid but fall back on
GenerateRawUniqueId with conversion to an RFC 4122 UUID.
GenerateRawUniqueId is declared and defined under env/ rather than util/
or even port/ because of the Env dependency.
Likely follow-up: enhance GenerateRawUniqueId to be faster after the
first call and to guarantee uniqueness within the lifetime of a single
process (imparting the same property onto DB session IDs).
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8708
Test Plan:
A new mini-stress test in env_test checks the various public
and internal APIs for uniqueness, including each track of
GenerateRawUniqueId individually. We can't hope to verify anywhere close
to 128 bits of entropy, but it can at least detect flaws as bad as the
old code. Serial execution of the new tests takes about 350 ms on
my machine.

Summary:
This PR addresses some build and functional issues on MSVC targets, as a step towards an eventual goal of having RocksDB build successfully for Windows on ARM64.
Addressed issues include:
- BitsSetToOne and CountTrailingZeroBits do not compile on non-x64 MSVC targets. A fallback implementation of BitsSetToOne when Intel intrinsics are not available is added, based on the C++20 `<bit>` popcount implementation in Microsoft's STL.
- The implementation of FloorLog2 for MSVC targets (including x64) gives incorrect results. The unit test easily detects this, but CircleCI is currently configured to only run a specific set of tests for Windows CMake builds, so this seems to have been unnoticed.
- AsmVolatilePause does not use YieldProcessor on Windows ARM64 targets, even though it is available.
- When CondVar::TimedWait calls Microsoft STL's condition_variable::wait_for, it can potentially trigger a bug (just recently fixed in the upcoming VS 16.8's STL) that deadlocks various tests that wait for a timer to execute, since `Timer::Run` doesn't get a chance to execute before being blocked by the test function acquiring the mutex.
- In c_test, `GetTempDir` assumes a POSIX-style temp path.
- `NormalizePath` did not eliminate consecutive POSIX-style path separators on Windows, resulting in test failures in e.g., wal_manager_test.
- Various other test failures.
In a followup PR I hope to modify CircleCI's config.yml to invoke all RocksDB unit tests in Windows CMake builds with CTest, instead of the current use of `run_ci_db_test.ps1` which requires individual tests to be specified and is missing many of the existing tests.
Notes from peterd: FloorLog2 is not yet used in production code (it's for something in progress). I also added a few more inexpensive platform-dependent tests to Windows CircleCI runs. And included facebook/folly#1461 as requested

Summary:
The default behaviour of rocksdb is to use the `*A(` windows API functions.
These accept filenames in the currently configured system encoding,
be it Latin 1, utf8 or whatever.
If the Application intends to completely work with utf8 strings internally,
converting these to that codepage properly isn't even always possible.
Thus this patch adds a switch to use the `*W(` functions, which accept
UTF-16 filenames, and uses C++11 features to translate the
UTF8 containing std::string to an UTF16 containing std::wstring.
This feature is a compile time options, that can be enabled by setting `WITH_WINDOWS_UTF8_FILENAMES` to true.

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: We should never set max_open_files to be bigger than the system's ulimit. Otherwise we will get "Too many open files" errors. See an example in this Travis run: https://travis-ci.org/facebook/rocksdb/jobs/79591566
Test Plan:
make check
I will also verify that max_max_open_files is reasonable.
