Summary:
This change standardizes on a new 16-byte cache key format for
block cache (incl compressed and secondary) and persistent cache (but
not table cache and row cache).
The goal is a really fast cache key with practically ideal stability and
uniqueness properties without external dependencies (e.g. from FileSystem).
A fixed key size of 16 bytes should enable future optimizations to the
concurrent hash table for block cache, which is a heavy CPU user /
bottleneck, but there appears to be measurable performance improvement
even with no changes to LRUCache.
This change replaces a lot of disjointed and ugly code handling cache
keys with calls to a simple, clean new internal API (cache_key.h).
(Preserving the old cache key logic under an option would be very ugly
and likely negate the performance gain of the new approach. Complete
replacement carries some inherent risk, but I think that's acceptable
with sufficient analysis and testing.)
The scheme for encoding new cache keys is complicated but explained
in cache_key.cc.
Also: EndianSwapValue is moved to math.h to be next to other bit
operations. (Explains some new include "math.h".) ReverseBits operation
added and unit tests added to hash_test for both.

Test Plan:
### Basic correctness
Several tests needed updates to work with the new functionality, mostly
because we are no longer relying on filesystem for stable cache keys
so table builders & readers need more context info to agree on cache
keys. This functionality is so core, a huge number of existing tests
exercise the cache key functionality.
### Performance
Create db with
`TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -bloom_bits=10 -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=3000000 -partition_index_and_filters`
And test performance with
`TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -readonly -use_existing_db -bloom_bits=10 -benchmarks=readrandom -num=3000000 -duration=30 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks -cache_size=250000 -threads=4`
using DEBUG_LEVEL=0 and simultaneous before & after runs.
Before ops/sec, avg over 100 runs: 121924
After ops/sec, avg over 100 runs: 125385 (+2.8%)
### Collision probability
I have built a tool, ./cache_bench -stress_cache_key to broadly simulate host-wide cache activity
over many months, by making some pessimistic simplifying assumptions:
* Every generated file has a cache entry for every byte offset in the file (contiguous range of cache keys)
* All of every file is cached for its entire lifetime
We use a simple table with skewed address assignment and replacement on address collision
to simulate files coming & going, with quite a variance (super-Poisson) in ages. Some output
with `./cache_bench -stress_cache_key -sck_keep_bits=40`:
```
Total cache or DBs size: 32TiB Writing 925.926 MiB/s or 76.2939TiB/day
Multiply by 9.22337e+18 to correct for simulation losses (but still assume whole file cached)
```
These come from default settings of 2.5M files per day of 32 MB each, and
`-sck_keep_bits=40` means that to represent a single file, we are only keeping 40 bits of
the 128-bit cache key. With file size of 2\*\*25 contiguous keys (pessimistic), our simulation
is about 2\*\*(128-40-25) or about 9 billion billion times more prone to collision than reality.
More default assumptions, relatively pessimistic:
* 100 DBs in same process (doesn't matter much)
* Re-open DB in same process (new session ID related to old session ID) on average
every 100 files generated
* Restart process (all new session IDs unrelated to old) 24 times per day
After enough data, we get a result at the end:
```
(keep 40 bits) 17 collisions after 2 x 90 days, est 10.5882 days between (9.76592e+19 corrected)
```
If we believe the (pessimistic) simulation and the mathematical generalization, we would need to run a billion machines all for 97 billion days to expect a cache key collision. To help verify that our generalization ("corrected") is robust, we can make our simulation more precise with `-sck_keep_bits=41` and `42`, which takes more running time to get enough data:
```
(keep 41 bits) 16 collisions after 4 x 90 days, est 22.5 days between (1.03763e+20 corrected)
(keep 42 bits) 19 collisions after 10 x 90 days, est 47.3684 days between (1.09224e+20 corrected)
```
The generalized prediction still holds. With the `-sck_randomize` option, we can see that we are beating "random" cache keys (except offsets still non-randomized) by a modest amount (roughly 20x less collision prone than random), which should make us reasonably comfortable even in "degenerate" cases:
```
197 collisions after 1 x 90 days, est 0.456853 days between (4.21372e+18 corrected)
```
I've run other tests to validate other conditions behave as expected, never behaving "worse than random" unless we start chopping off structured data.

Summary:
* New public header unique_id.h and function GetUniqueIdFromTableProperties
which computes a universally unique identifier based on table properties
of table files from recent RocksDB versions.
* Generation of DB session IDs is refactored so that they are
guaranteed unique in the lifetime of a process running RocksDB.
(SemiStructuredUniqueIdGen, new test included.) Along with file numbers,
this enables SST unique IDs to be guaranteed unique among SSTs generated
in a single process, and "better than random" between processes.
See https://github.com/pdillinger/unique_id
* In addition to public API producing 'external' unique IDs, there is a function
for producing 'internal' unique IDs, with functions for converting between the
two. In short, the external ID is "safe" for things people might do with it, and
the internal ID enables more "power user" features for the future. Specifically,
the external ID goes through a hashing layer so that any subset of bits in the
external ID can be used as a hash of the full ID, while also preserving
uniqueness guarantees in the first 128 bits (bijective both on first 128 bits
and on full 192 bits).
Intended follow-up:
* Use the internal unique IDs in cache keys. (Avoid conflicts with https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8912) (The file offset can be XORed into
the third 64-bit value of the unique ID.)
* Publish the external unique IDs in FileStorageInfo (https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8968)
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8990
Test Plan:
Unit tests added, and checking of unique ids in stress test.
NOTE in stress test we do not generate nearly enough files to thoroughly
stress uniqueness, but the test trims off pieces of the ID to check for
uniqueness so that we can infer (with some assumptions) stronger
properties in the aggregate.

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:
With expected use for a 128-bit hash, xxhash library is
upgraded to current dev (2c611a76f914828bed675f0f342d6c4199ffee1e)
as of Aug 6 so that we can use production version of XXH3_128bits
as new Hash128 function (added in hash128.h).
To make this work, however, we have to carve out the "preview" version
of XXH3 that is used in new SST Bloom and Ribbon filters, since that
will not get maintenance in xxhash releases. I have consolidated all the
relevant code into xxph3.h and made it "inline only" (no .cc file). The
working name for this hash function is changed from XXH3p to XXPH3
(XX Preview Hash) because the latter is easier to get working with no
symbol name conflicts between the headers.

Test Plan:
no expected change in existing functionality. For Hash128,
added some unit tests based on those for Hash64 to ensure some basic

Summary:
For upcoming new SST filter implementations, we will use a new
64-bit hash function (XXH3 preview, slightly modified). This change
updates hash.{h,cc} for that change, adds unit tests, and out-of-lines
the implementations to keep hash.h as clean/small as possible.
In developing the unit tests, I discovered that the XXH3 preview always
returns zero for the empty string. Zero is problematic for some
algorithms (including an upcoming SST filter implementation) if it
occurs more often than at the "natural" rate, so it should not be
returned from trivial values using trivial seeds. I modified our fork
of XXH3 to return a modest hash of the seed for the empty string.
With hash function details out-of-lines in hash.h, it makes sense to
enable XXH_INLINE_ALL, so that direct calls to XXH64/XXH32/XXH3p
are inlined. To fix array-bounds warnings on some inline calls, I
injected some casts to uintptr_t in xxhash.cc. (Issue reported to Yann.)
Revised: Reverted using XXH_INLINE_ALL for now. Some Facebook
checks are unhappy about #include on xxhash.cc file. I would
fix that by rename to xxhash_cc.h, but to best preserve history I want
to do that in a separate commit (PR) from the uintptr casts.
Also updated filter_bench for this change, improving the performance
predictability of dry run hashing and adding support for 64-bit hash
(for upcoming new SST filter implementations, minor dead code in the
tool for now).

Summary:
- Updated our included xxhash implementation to version 0.7.2 (== the latest dev version as of 2019-10-09).
- Using XXH_NAMESPACE (like other fb projects) to avoid potential name collisions.
- Added fastrange64, and unit tests for it and fastrange32. These are faster alternatives to hash % range.
- Use preview version of XXH3 instead of MurmurHash64A for NPHash64
-- Had to update cache_test to increase probability of passing for any given hash function.
- Use fastrange64 instead of % with uses of NPHash64
-- Had to fix WritePreparedTransactionTest.CommitOfDelayedPrepared to avoid deadlock apparently caused by new hash collision.
- Set default seed for NPHash64 because specifying a seed rarely makes sense for it.
- Removed unnecessary include xxhash.h in a popular .h file
- Rename preview version of XXH3 to XXH3p for clarity and to ease backward compatibility in case final version of XXH3 is integrated.
Relying on existing unit tests for NPHash64-related changes. Each new implementation of fastrange64 passed unit tests when manipulating my local build to select it. I haven't done any integration performance tests, but I consider the improved performance of the pieces being swapped in to be well established.
