Summary:
The first key is used to defer reading the data block until this file gets to the top of merging iterator's heap. For short range scans, most files never make it to the top of the heap, so this change can reduce read amplification by a lot sometimes.
Consider the following workload. There are a few data streams (we'll be calling them "logs"), each stream consisting of a sequence of blobs (we'll be calling them "records"). Each record is identified by log ID and a sequence number within the log. RocksDB key is concatenation of log ID and sequence number (big endian). Reads are mostly relatively short range scans, each within a single log. Writes are mostly sequential for each log, but writes to different logs are randomly interleaved. Compactions are disabled; instead, when we accumulate a few tens of sst files, we create a new column family and start writing to it.
So, a typical sst file consists of a few ranges of blocks, each range corresponding to one log ID (we use FlushBlockPolicy to cut blocks at log boundaries). A typical read would go like this. First, iterator Seek() reads one block from each sst file. Then a series of Next()s move through one sst file (since writes to each log are mostly sequential) until the subiterator reaches the end of this log in this sst file; then Next() switches to the next sst file and reads sequentially from that, and so on. Often a range scan will only return records from a small number of blocks in small number of sst files; in this case, the cost of initial Seek() reading one block from each file may be bigger than the cost of reading the actually useful blocks.
Neither iterate_upper_bound nor bloom filters can prevent reading one block from each file in Seek(). But this PR can: if the index contains first key from each block, we don't have to read the block until this block actually makes it to the top of merging iterator's heap, so for short range scans we won't read any blocks from most of the sst files.
This PR does the deferred block loading inside value() call. This is not ideal: there's no good way to report an IO error from inside value(). As discussed with siying offline, it would probably be better to change InternalIterator's interface to explicitly fetch deferred value and get status. I'll do it in a separate PR.

Summary:
This PR adds more callers for table readers. These information are only used for block cache analysis so that we can know which caller accesses a block.
1. It renames the BlockCacheLookupCaller to TableReaderCaller as passing the caller from upstream requires changes to table_reader.h and TableReaderCaller is a more appropriate name.
2. It adds more table reader callers in table/table_reader_caller.h, e.g., kCompactionRefill, kExternalSSTIngestion, and kBuildTable.
This PR is long as it requires modification of interfaces in table_reader.h, e.g., NewIterator.

Currently the read-ahead logic for user reads and compaction reads go through different code paths where compaction reads create new table readers and use `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile`. This change is to unify read-ahead logic to use read-ahead in BlockBasedTableReader::InitDataBlock(). As a result of the change `ReadAheadRandomAccessFile` class and `new_table_reader_for_compaction_inputs` option will no longer be used.

Summary:
BlockCacheLookupContext only contains the caller for now.
We will trace block accesses at five places:
1. BlockBasedTable::GetFilter.
2. BlockBasedTable::GetUncompressedDict.
3. BlockBasedTable::MaybeReadAndLoadToCache. (To trace access on data, index, and range deletion block.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Get. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
5. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
We create the context at:
1. BlockBasedTable::Get. (kUserGet)
2. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (kUserMGet)
3. BlockBasedTable::NewIterator. (either kUserIterator, kCompaction, or external SST ingestion calls this function.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Open. (kPrefetch)
5. Index/Filter::CacheDependencies. (kPrefetch)
6. BlockBasedTable::ApproximateOffsetOf. (kCompaction or kUserApproximateSize).
I loaded 1 million key-value pairs into the database and ran the readrandom benchmark with a single thread. I gave the block cache 10 GB to make sure all reads hit the block cache after warmup. The throughput is comparable.

Summary:
It's useful to be able to (optionally) associate key-value pairs with user-provided timestamps. This PR is an early effort towards this goal and continues the work of facebook#4942. A suite of new unit tests exist in DBBasicTestWithTimestampWithParam. Support for timestamp requires the user to provide timestamp as a slice in `ReadOptions` and `WriteOptions`. All timestamps of the same database must share the same length, format, etc. The format of the timestamp is the same throughout the same database, and the user is responsible for providing a comparator function (Comparator) to order the <key, timestamp> tuples. Once created, the format and length of the timestamp cannot change (at least for now).
Test plan (on devserver):
```
$COMPILE_WITH_ASAN=1 make -j32 all
$./db_basic_test --gtest_filter=Timestamp/DBBasicTestWithTimestampWithParam.PutAndGet/*
$make check
```
All tests must pass.
We also run the following db_bench tests to verify whether there is regression on Get/Put while timestamp is not enabled.
```
$TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillseq,readrandom -num=1000000
$TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=1000000
```
Repeat for 6 times for both versions.

Summary:
Currently, when the block cache is used for index blocks as well, it is
not really the index block that is stored in the cache but an
IndexReader object. Since this object is not pure data (it has, for
instance, pointers that might dangle), it's not really sharable. To
avoid the issues around this, the current code uses a dummy unique cache
key for each TableReader to store the IndexReader, and erases the
IndexReader entry when the TableReader is closed. Instead of doing this,
the new code moves the IndexReader out of the cache altogether. In
particular, instead of the TableReader owning, or caching/pinning the
IndexReader based on the customer's settings, the TableReader
unconditionally owns the IndexReader, which in turn owns/caches/pins
the index block (which is itself sharable and thus can be safely put in
the cache without any hacks).
Note: the change has two side effects:
1) Partitions of partitioned indexes no longer affect the read
amplification statistics.
2) Eviction statistics for index blocks are temporarily broken. We plan to fix
this in a separate phase.

Summary:
Performing unordered writes in rocksdb when unordered_write option is set to true. When enabled the writes to memtable are done without joining any write thread. This offers much higher write throughput since the upcoming writes would not have to wait for the slowest memtable write to finish. The tradeoff is that the writes visible to a snapshot might change over time. If the application cannot tolerate that, it should implement its own mechanisms to work around that. Using TransactionDB with WRITE_PREPARED write policy is one way to achieve that. Doing so increases the max throughput by 2.2x without however compromising the snapshot guarantees.
The patch is prepared based on an original by siying
Existing unit tests are extended to include unordered_write option.

Summary:
CachableEntry is used in a variety of contexts: it may refer to a cached
object (i.e. an object in the block cache), an owned object, or an
unowned object; also, in some cases (most notably with iterators), the
responsibility of managing the pointed-to object gets handed off to
another object. Each of the above scenarios have different implications
for the lifecycle of the referenced object. For the most part, the patch
does not change the lifecycle of managed objects; however, it makes
these relationships explicit, and it also enables us to eliminate some
hacks and accident-prone code around releasing cache handles and
deleting/cleaning up objects. (The only places where the patch changes
how an objects are managed are the partitions of partitioned indexes and
filters.)

Summary:
When reseek happens in merging iterator, reseeking a child iterator can be avoided if:
(1) the iterator represents imutable data
(2) reseek() to a larger key than the current key
(3) the current key of the child iterator is larger than the seek key
because it is guaranteed that the result will fall into the same position.
This optimization will be useful for use cases where users keep seeking to keys nearby in ascending order.

Summary:
Right now there is a potential race condition where two threads are created to iterate through the DB (https://gist.github.com/miasantreble/88f5798a397ee7cb8e7baff9db2d9e85). The problem is that in `BlockBasedTable::NewIndexIterator`, if both threads failed to find index_reader from block cache, they will call `CreateIndexReader->UpdateIndexType()` which creates a race to update `index_type` in the shared rep_ object. By checking the code, we realize the index type is always populated by `PrefetchIndexAndFilterBlocks` during the table `Open` call, so there is no need to update index type every time during iterator creation. This PR attempts to fix the race condition by removing the unnecessary call to `UpdateIndexType`

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.
For simplicity, to avoid the feature is disabled in two cases: i) When more than one sub-compaction are sharing the same snapshot list, ii) when Range Delete is used in which the range delete aggregator has its own copy of snapshot list.
This fixes the reverted https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5099 issue with range deletes.

Right now, when Seek() is called again, RocksDB always does a binary search against the files and index blocks, even if they end up with the same file/block. Improve it as following:
1. in LevelIterator, reseek first try to check the boundary of the current file. If it falls into the same file, skip the binary search to find the file
2. in block based table iterator, reseek skip to reseek the iterator block if the seek key is larger than the current key and lower than the index key (boundary of the current block and the next block).

Summary:
At least one of the meta-block loading functions (`ReadRangeDelBlock`)
uses the same block reading function (`NewDataBlockIterator`) as data
block reads, which means it uses the dictionary handle. However, the
dictionary handle was uninitialized while reading meta-blocks, causing
readers to receive an error. This situation was only noticed when
`cache_index_and_filter_blocks=true`.
This PR initializes the handle to null while reading meta-blocks to
prevent the error. It also adds support to `db_stress` /

Summary:
Improve the iterators performance when the user explicitly sets the readahead size via `ReadOptions.readahead_size`.
1. Stop creating new table readers when the user explicitly sets readahead size.
2. Make use of an internal buffer based on `FilePrefetchBuffer` instead of using `ReadaheadRandomAccessFileReader`, to handle the user readahead requests (for both buffered and direct io cases).
3. Add `readahead_size` to db_bench.
**Benchmarks:**
https://gist.github.com/sagar0/53693edc320a18abeaeca94ca32f5737
For 1 MB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 28% and Direct IO performance improves by 50%.
For 512KB readahead, Buffered IO performance improves by 30% and Direct IO performance improves by 67%.
**Test Plan:**
Updated `DBIteratorTest.ReadAhead` test to make sure that:
- no new table readers are created for iterators on setting ReadOptions.readahead_size
- At least "readahead" number of bytes are actually getting read on each iterator read.
TODO later:
- Use similar logic for compactions as well.
- This ties in nicely with #4052 and paves the way for removing ReadaheadRandomAcessFile later.

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.

Summary:
Introduce BlockBasedTableOptions::index_shortening to give users control on which key shortening techniques to be used in building index blocks. Before this patch, both separators and successor keys where shortened in indexes. With this patch, the default is set to kShortenSeparators to only shorten the separators. Since each index block has many separators and only one successor (last key), the change should not have negative impact on index block size. However it should prevent many unnecessary block loads where due to approximation introduced by shorted successor, seek would land us to the previous block and then fix it by moving to the next one.

Summary:
We found an issue in Periodic Compactions (introduced in #5166) where files were not being picked up for compactions as all the SST files created with older versions of RocksDB have `file_creation_time` as 0. (Note that `file_creation_time` is a new table property introduced in #5166).
To address this, Periodic compactions now fall back to looking at the `creation_time` table property or the file's modification time (as given by the Env) when `file_creation_time` table property is found to be 0.
Here how the file's modification time (and, in turn, the file age) is computed now:
1. Use `file_creation_time` table property if it is > 0.
1. If not, then use `creation_time` table property if it is > 0.
1. If not, then use file's mtime stat metadata given by the underlying Env.
Don't consider the file at all for compaction if the modification time cannot be correctly determined based on the above conditions.

Summary:
In long scans, virtual function calls of Next(), Valid(), key() and value() are not trivial. By introducing NextAndGetResult(), Some of the Next(), Valid() and key() calls are consolidated into one virtual function call to reduce CPU.
Also did some inline tricks and add some "final" randomly in some functions. Even without the "final" annotation, most Next() calls are inlined with -O3, but sometimes with a final it is inlined by O2 too. It doesn't hurt to add those final annotations.

Summary:
#4905 removed the implementation of `NewEmptyIterator` but kept its
declaration in the public header. This breaks some systems that depend on
RocksDB if the systems use `NewEmptyIterator`. Therefore, add it back to fix. cc maysamyabandeh please remind me if I miss anything here. Thanks
