Summary:
This PR provides preliminary support for handling IO error during MANIFEST write.
File write/sync is not guaranteed to be atomic. If we encounter an IOError while writing/syncing to the MANIFEST file, we cannot be sure about the state of the MANIFEST file. The version edits may or may not have reached the file. During cleanup, if we delete the newly-generated SST files referenced by the pending version edit(s), but the version edit(s) actually are persistent in the MANIFEST, then next recovery attempt will process the version edits(s) and then fail since the SST files have already been deleted.
One approach is to truncate the MANIFEST after write/sync error, so that it is safe to delete the SST files. However, file truncation may not be supported on certain file systems. Therefore, we take the following approach.
If an IOError is detected during MANIFEST write/sync, we disable file deletions for the faulty database. Depending on whether the IOError is retryable (set by underlying file system), either RocksDB or application can call `DB::Resume()`, or simply shutdown and restart. During `Resume()`, RocksDB will try to switch to a new MANIFEST and write all existing in-memory version storage in the new file. If this succeeds, then RocksDB may proceed. If all recovery is completed, then file deletions will be re-enabled.
Note that multiple threads can call `LogAndApply()` at the same time, though only one of them will be going through the process MANIFEST write, possibly batching the version edits of other threads. When the leading MANIFEST writer finishes, all of the MANIFEST writing threads in this batch will have the same IOError. They will all call `ErrorHandler::SetBGError()` in which file deletion will be disabled.
Possible future directions:
- Add an `ErrorContext` structure so that it is easier to pass more info to `ErrorHandler`. Currently, as in this example, a new `BackgroundErrorReason` has to be added.

Summary:
When creating a database backup, the background threads will not only consume IO resources by copying files, but also consuming CPU such as by computing checksums. During peak times, the CPU consumption by the background threads might affect online queries.
This PR makes it possible to decrease CPU priority of these threads when creating a new backup.

Summary:
In the current code base, we use Status to get and store the returned status from the call. Specifically, for IO related functions, the current Status cannot reflect the IO Error details such as error scope, error retryable attribute, and others. With the implementation of https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5761, we have the new Wrapper for IO, which returns IOStatus instead of Status. However, the IOStatus is purged at the lower level of write path and transferred to Status.
The first job of this PR is to pass the IOStatus to the write path (flush, WAL write, and Compaction). The second job is to identify the Retryable IO Error as HardError, and set the bg_error_ as HardError. In this case, the DB Instance becomes read only. User is informed of the Status and need to take actions to deal with it (e.g., call db->Resume()).

Summary:
When dynamically linking two binaries together, different builds of RocksDB from two sources might cause errors. To provide a tool for user to solve the problem, the RocksDB namespace is changed to a flag which can be overridden in build time.

Summary:
Fix for issue https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/6316
When an append/sync of the manifest file fails due to an IO error such
as NoSpace, we don't always put the DB in read-only mode. This is true
for flush and compactions, as well as foreground operatons such as column family
add/drop, CompactFiles etc. Subsequent changes to the DB will be
recorded in the same manifest file, which would have a corrupted record
in the middle due to the previous failure. On next DB::Open(), it will
fail to process the full manifest and data will be lost.
To fix this, we reset VersionSet::descriptor_log_ on append/sync
failure, which will force a new manifest file to be written on the next
append.

Summary:
This commit implements automatic recovery from a Status::NoSpace() error
during background operations such as write callback, flush and
compaction. The broad design is as follows -
1. Compaction errors are treated as soft errors and don't put the
database in read-only mode. A compaction is delayed until enough free
disk space is available to accomodate the compaction outputs, which is
estimated based on the input size. This means that users can continue to
write, and we rely on the WriteController to delay or stop writes if the
compaction debt becomes too high due to persistent low disk space
condition
2. Errors during write callback and flush are treated as hard errors,
i.e the database is put in read-only mode and goes back to read-write
only fater certain recovery actions are taken.
3. Both types of recovery rely on the SstFileManagerImpl to poll for
sufficient disk space. We assume that there is a 1-1 mapping between an
SFM and the underlying OS storage container. For cases where multiple
DBs are hosted on a single storage container, the user is expected to
allocate a single SFM instance and use the same one for all the DBs. If
no SFM is specified by the user, DBImpl::Open() will allocate one, but
this will be one per DB and each DB will recover independently. The
recovery implemented by SFM is as follows -
a) On the first occurance of an out of space error during compaction,
subsequent
compactions will be delayed until the disk free space check indicates
enough available space. The required space is computed as the sum of
input sizes.
b) The free space check requirement will be removed once the amount of
free space is greater than the size reserved by in progress
compactions when the first error occured
c) If the out of space error is a hard error, a background thread in
SFM will poll for sufficient headroom before triggering the recovery
of the database and putting it in write-only mode. The headroom is
calculated as the sum of the write_buffer_size of all the DB instances
associated with the SFM
4. EventListener callbacks will be called at the start and completion of
automatic recovery. Users can disable the auto recov ery in the start
callback, and later initiate it manually by calling DB::Resume()
Todo:
1. More extensive testing
2. Add disk full condition to db_stress (follow-on PR)

Summary:
Currently, if RocksDB encounters errors during a write operation (user requested or BG operations), it sets DBImpl::bg_error_ and fails subsequent writes. This PR allows the DB to be resumed for certain classes of errors. It consists of 3 parts -
1. Introduce Status::Severity in rocksdb::Status to indicate whether a given error can be recovered from or not
2. Refactor the error handling code so that setting bg_error_ and deciding on severity is in one place
3. Provide an API for the user to clear the error and resume the DB instance
This whole change is broken up into multiple PRs. Initially, we only allow clearing the error for Status::NoSpace() errors during background flush/compaction. Subsequent PRs will expand this to include more errors and foreground operations such as Put(), and implement a polling mechanism for out-of-space errors.
