Summary:
For performance purposes, the lower level routines were changed to use a SystemClock* instead of a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock>. The shared ptr has some performance degradation on certain hardware classes.
For most of the system, there is no risk of the pointer being deleted/invalid because the shared_ptr will be stored elsewhere. For example, the ImmutableDBOptions stores the Env which has a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock> in it. The SystemClock* within the ImmutableDBOptions is essentially a "short cut" to gain access to this constant resource.
There were a few classes (PeriodicWorkScheduler?) where the "short cut" property did not hold. In those cases, the shared pointer was preserved.
Using db_bench readrandom perf_level=3 on my EC2 box, this change performed as well or better than 6.17:
6.17: readrandom : 28.046 micros/op 854902 ops/sec; 61.3 MB/s (355999 of 355999 found)
6.18: readrandom : 32.615 micros/op 735306 ops/sec; 52.7 MB/s (290999 of 290999 found)
PR: readrandom : 27.500 micros/op 871909 ops/sec; 62.5 MB/s (367999 of 367999 found)
(Note that the times for 6.18 are prior to revert of the SystemClock).

Summary:
Introduces and uses a SystemClock class to RocksDB. This class contains the time-related functions of an Env and these functions can be redirected from the Env to the SystemClock.
Many of the places that used an Env (Timer, PerfStepTimer, RepeatableThread, RateLimiter, WriteController) for time-related functions have been changed to use SystemClock instead. There are likely more places that can be changed, but this is a start to show what can/should be done. Over time it would be nice to migrate most (if not all) of the uses of the time functions from the Env to the SystemClock.
There are several Env classes that implement these functions. Most of these have not been converted yet to SystemClock implementations; that will come in a subsequent PR. It would be good to unify many of the Mock Timer implementations, so that they behave similarly and be tested similarly (some override Sleep, some use a MockSleep, etc).
Additionally, this change will allow new methods to be introduced to the SystemClock (like https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7101 WaitFor) in a consistent manner across a smaller number of classes.

Summary:
This provides a workaround for two race conditions that will be fixed in
a more sophisticated way later. This PR:
(1) Makes the client serialize calls to `Timer::Start()` and `Timer::Shutdown()` (see https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7711). The long-term fix will be to make those functions thread-safe.
(2) Makes `PeriodicWorkScheduler` atomically add/cancel work together with starting/shutting down its `Timer`. The long-term fix will be for `Timer` API to offer more specialized APIs so the client will not need to synchronize.

Summary:
There's a potential deadlock caused by MockTimeEnv time value get to a large number, which causes TimedWait() wait forever. The test misuses the microseconds as seconds, making it more likely to happen.

Summary:
Have a global StatsDumpScheduler for all DB instance stats dumping, including `DumpStats()` and `PersistStats()`. Before this, there're 2 dedicate threads for every DB instance, one for DumpStats() one for PersistStats(), which could create lots of threads if there're hundreds DB instances.

Summary:
Timer (defined in timer.h) schedules and runs user-specified fuctions
regularly. Current implementation holds the mutex while running user
function, which will lead to contention and waiting.
To fix, Timer::Run releases mutex before running user function, and
re-acquires it afterwards.
This fix will impact how we can cancel a task. If the task is running,
it is not holding the mutex. The thread calling Cancel() should wait
until the current task finishes.

Summary:
We have a number of tests hanging on MacOS and windows due to
mishandling of code for mock sleeps. In addition, the code was in
terrible shape because the same variable (addon_time_) would sometimes
refer to microseconds and sometimes to seconds. One test even assumed it
was nanoseconds but was written to pass anyway.
This has been cleaned up so that DB tests generally use a SpecialEnv
function to mock sleep, for either some number of microseconds or seconds
depending on the function called. But to call one of these, the test must first
call SetMockSleep (precondition enforced with assertion), which also turns
sleeps in RocksDB into mock sleeps. To also removes accounting for actual
clock time, call SetTimeElapseOnlySleepOnReopen, which implies
SetMockSleep (on DB re-open). This latter setting only works by applying
on DB re-open, otherwise havoc can ensue if Env goes back in time with
DB open.
More specifics:
Removed some unused test classes, and updated comments on the general
problem.
Fixed DBSSTTest.GetTotalSstFilesSize using a sync point callback instead
of mock time. For this we have the only modification to production code,
inserting a sync point callback in flush_job.cc, which is not a change to
production behavior.
Removed unnecessary resetting of mock times to 0 in many tests. RocksDB
deals in relative time. Any behaviors relying on absolute date/time are likely
a bug. (The above test DBSSTTest.GetTotalSstFilesSize was the only one
clearly injecting a specific absolute time for actual testing convenience.) Just
in case I misunderstood some test, I put this note in each replacement:
// NOTE: Presumed unnecessary and removed: resetting mock time in env
Strengthened some tests like MergeTestTime, MergeCompactionTimeTest, and
FilterCompactionTimeTest in db_test.cc
stats_history_test and blob_db_test are each their own beast, rather deeply
dependent on MockTimeEnv. Each gets its own variant of a work-around for
TimedWait in a mock time environment. (Reduces redundancy and
inconsistency in stats_history_test.)
Intended follow-up:
Remove TimedWait from the public API of InstrumentedCondVar, and only
make that accessible through Env by passing in an InstrumentedCondVar and
a deadline. Then the Env implementations mocking time can fix this problem
without using sync points. (Test infrastructure using sync points interferes
with individual tests' control over sync points.)
With that change, we can simplify/consolidate the scattered work-arounds.
