Summary: Now while the background thread is picking compactions, it writes out multiple info_logs, especially for universal compaction, which introduces a chance of waiting log writing in mutex, which is bad. To remove this risk, write all those info logs to a buffer and flush it after releasing the mutex.
Test Plan:
make all check
check the log lines while running some tests that trigger compactions.

Thanks to the discussion with @sdong, I added the `Options` when
generating the flusher, thus avoiding the tricks.
Just FYI: I resisted to add Options in flush_block_policy.h since I
wanted to avoid cyclic dependencies: FlushBlockPolicy dpends on Options
and Options also depends FlushBlockPolicy... While I appreciate my
effort to prevent it, the old design turns out creating more troubles than
it tried to avoid.

Summary:
This diff does two things:
(1) Log::Reader does not report a corruption when the last record in a log or manifest file is truncated (meaning that log writer died in the middle of the write). Inherited the code from LevelDB: https://code.google.com/p/leveldb/source/detail?r=269fc6ca9416129248db5ca57050cd5d39d177c8#
(2) Turn off mmap writes for all writes to log and manifest files
(2) is necessary because if we use mmap writes, the last record is not truncated, but is actually filled with zeros, making checksum fail. It is hard to recover from checksum failing.
Test Plan:
Added unit tests from LevelDB
Actually recovered a "corrupted" MANIFEST file.

ReduceNumberOfLevels had segmentation fault in WriteSnapshot() since we
didn't change the number of levels in VersionSet (we consider them
immutable from now on). This fixes the problem.
Summary:
A lot of our code implicitly assumes number_levels to be static. ReduceNumberOfLevels() breaks that assumption. For example, after calling ReduceNumberOfLevels(), DBImpl::NumberLevels() will be different from VersionSet::NumberLevels(). This is dangerous. Thankfully, it's not in public headers and is only used from LDB cmd tool. LDB tool is only using it statically, i.e. it never calls it with running DB instance. With this diff, we make it explicitly static. This way, we can assume number_levels to be immutable and not break assumption that lot of our code is relying upon. LDB tool can still use the method.
Also, I removed the method from a separate file since it breaks filename completition. version_se<TAB> now completes to "version_set." instead of "version_set" (without the dot). I don't see a big reason that the function should be in a different file.

Summary:
This is a big one. This diff moves all the code related to picking compactions from VersionSet to new class CompactionPicker. Column families' compactions will be completely separate processes, so we need to have multiple CompactionPickers.
To make this easier to review, most of the code change is just copy/paste. There is also a small change not to use VersionSet::current_, but rather to take `Version* version` as a parameter. Most of the other code is exactly the same.
In future diffs, I will also make some improvements to CompactionPickers. I think the most important part will be encapsulating it better. Currently Version, VersionSet, Compaction and CompactionPicker are all friend classes, which makes it harder to change the implementation.

I will submit a sequence of diffs that are preparing master branch for column families. There are a lot of implicit assumptions in the code that are making column family implementation hard. If I make the change only in column family branch, it will make merging back to master impossible.
Most of the diffs will be simple code refactorings, so I hope we can have fast turnaround time. Feel free to grab me in person to discuss any of them.
This diff removes number of level check from VersionEdit. It is used only when VersionEdit is read, not written, but has to be set when it is written. I believe it is a right thing to make VersionEdit dumb and check consistency on the caller side. This will also make it much easier to implement Column Families, since different column families can have different number of levels.

In some use cases, table readers for all live files should always be cached. In that case, there will be an opportunity to avoid the table cache look-up while Get() and NewIterator().
We define options.max_open_files = -1 to be the mode that table readers for live files will always be kept. In that mode, table readers are cached in FileMetaData (with a reference count hold in table cache). So that when executing table_cache.Get() and table_cache.newInterator(), LRU cache checking can be by-passed, to reduce latency.

It might speed things up a bit, but makes code uglier. I don't really like it.
Much better approach would be to abstract all file handling to a separate class. Think of it as layer between DBImpl and Env. Having a separate class deal with file namings and deletion would benefit both code cleanliness (especially with huge DBImpl) and speed things up. It will take a huge effort to do this, though.
