Summary:
Right now we still don't fully use std::numeric_limits but use a macro, mainly for supporting VS 2013. Right now we only support VS 2017 and up so it is not a problem. The code comment claims that MinGW still needs it. We don't have a CI running MinGW so it's hard to validate. since we now require C++17, it's hard to imagine MinGW would still build RocksDB but doesn't support std::numeric_limits<>.

Summary:
In order to support old-style regex function registration, restored the original "Register<T>(string, Factory)" method using regular expressions. The PatternEntry methods were left in place but renamed to AddFactory. The goal is to allow for the deprecation of the original regex Registry method in an upcoming release.
Added modes to the PatternEntry kMatchZeroOrMore and kMatchAtLeastOne to match * or +, respectively (kMatchAtLeastOne was the original behavior).

Summary:
**Context:**
Some existing internal calls of `GenericRateLimiter::Request()` in backupable_db.cc and newly added internal calls in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8722/ do not make sure `bytes <= GetSingleBurstBytes()` as required by rate_limiter https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/master/include/rocksdb/rate_limiter.h#L47.
**Impacts of this bug include:**
(1) In debug build, when `GenericRateLimiter::Request()` requests bytes greater than `GenericRateLimiter:: kMinRefillBytesPerPeriod = 100` byte, process will crash due to assertion failure. See https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9063#discussion_r737034133 and for possible scenario
(2) In production build, although there will not be the above crash due to disabled assertion, the bug can lead to a request of small bytes being blocked for a long time by a request of same priority with insanely large bytes from a different thread. See updated https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/wiki/Rate-Limiter ("Notice that although....the maximum bytes that can be granted in a single request have to be bounded...") for more info.
There is an on-going effort to move rate-limiting to file wrapper level so rate limiting in `BackupEngine` and this PR might be made obsolete in the future.
**Summary:**
- Implemented loop-calling `GenericRateLimiter::Request()` with `bytes <= GetSingleBurstBytes()` as a static private helper function `BackupEngineImpl::LoopRateLimitRequestHelper`
-- Considering make this a util function in `RateLimiter` later or do something with `RateLimiter::RequestToken()`
- Replaced buggy internal callers with this helper function wherever requested byte is not pre-limited by `GetSingleBurstBytes()`
- Removed the minimum refill bytes per period enforced by `GenericRateLimiter` since it is useless and prevents testing `GenericRateLimiter` for extreme case with small refill bytes per period.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9063
Test Plan:
- Added a new test that failed the assertion before this change and now passes
- It exposed bugs in [the write during creation in `CopyOrCreateFile()`](df7cc66e17/utilities/backupable/backupable_db.cc (L2034-L2043)), [the read of table properties in `GetFileDbIdentities()`](df7cc66e17/utilities/backupable/backupable_db.cc (L2372-L2378)), [some read of metadata in `BackupMeta::LoadFromFile()`](df7cc66e17/utilities/backupable/backupable_db.cc (L2726))

Surprisingly, there isn't any sanitization against negative `int64_t bytes` in `GenericRateLimiter::Request(int64_t bytes, const Env::IOPriority pri, Statistics* stats)`.

Summary:
Context:
An extra IO_USER priority in rate limiter allows users to optionally charge WAL writes / SST reads to rate limiter at this priority level, which then has higher priority than IO_HIGH and IO_LOW. With an extra IO_USER priority, it allows users to better specify the relative urgency/importance among different requests in rate limiter. As a consequence, IO resource management can better prioritize and limit resource based on user's need.
The IO_USER is implemented as superior priority in GenericRateLimiter, in the sense that its request queue will always be iterated first without being constrained to fairness. The reason is that the notion of fairness is only meaningful in helping lower priorities in background IO (i.e, IO_HIGH/MID/LOW) to gain some fair chance to run so that it does not block foreground IO (i.e, the ones that are charged at the level of IO_USER). As we can see, the ultimate goal here is to not blocking foreground IO at IO_USER level, which justifies the superiority of IO_USER.
Similar benefits exist for IO_MID priority.
- Rewrote the logic of deciding the order of iterating request queues of high/low priorities to include the extra user/mid priority w/o affecting the existing behavior (see PR's [comment](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8595/files#r678749331))
- Included the request queue of user-pri/mid-pri in the code path of next-leader-candidate signaling and GenericRateLimiter's destructor
- Included the extra user/mid-pri in bookkeeping data structures: total_bytes_through_ and total_requests_
- Re-written the previous impl of explicitly iterating priorities with a loop from Env::IO_LOW to Env::IO_TOTAL

Summary:
`GenericRateLimiter` slow path handles requests that cannot be satisfied
immediately. Such requests enter a queue, and their thread stays in `Request()`
until they are granted or the rate limiter is stopped. These threads are
responsible for unblocking themselves. The work to do so is split into two main
duties.
(1) Waiting for the next refill time.
(2) Refilling the bytes and granting requests.
Prior to this PR, the slow path logic involved a leader election algorithm to
pick one thread to perform (1) followed by (2). It elected the thread whose
request was at the front of the highest priority non-empty queue since that
request was most likely to be granted. This algorithm was efficient in terms of
reducing intermediate wakeups, which is a thread waking up only to resume
waiting after finding its request is not granted. However, the conceptual
complexity of this algorithm was too high. It took me a long time to draw a
timeline to understand how it works for just one edge case yet there were so
many.
This PR drops the leader election to reduce conceptual complexity. Now, the two
duties can be performed by whichever thread acquires the lock first. The risk
of this change is increasing the number of intermediate wakeups, however, we
took steps to mitigate that.
- `wait_until_refill_pending_` flag ensures only one thread performs (1). This\
prevents the thundering herd problem at the next refill time. The remaining\
threads wait on their condition variable with an unbounded duration -- thus we\
must remember to notify them to ensure forward progress.
- (1) is typically done by a thread at the front of a queue. This is trivial\
when the queues are initially empty as the first choice that arrives must be\
the only entry in its queue. When queues are initially non-empty, we achieve\
this by having (2) notify a thread at the front of a queue (preferring higher\
priority) to perform the next duty.
- We do not require any additional wakeup for (2). Typically it will just be\
done by the thread that finished (1).
Combined, the second and third bullet points above suggest the refill/granting
will typically be done by a request at the front of its queue. This is
important because one wakeup is saved when a granted request happens to be in an
already running thread.
Note there are a few cases that still lead to intermediate wakeup, however. The
first two are existing issues that also apply to the old algorithm, however, the
third (including both subpoints) is new.
- No request may be granted (only possible when rate limit dynamically\
decreases).
- Requests from a different queue may be granted.
- (2) may be run by a non-front request thread causing it to not be granted even\
if some requests in that same queue are granted. It can happen for a couple\
(unlikely) reasons.
- A new request may sneak in and grab the lock at the refill time, before the\
thread finishing (1) can wake up and grab it.
- A new request may sneak in and grab the lock and execute (1) before (2)'s\
chosen candidate can wake up and grab the lock. Then that non-front request\
thread performing (1) can carry over to perform (2).

Test Plan:
- Use existing tests. The edge cases listed in the comment are all performance\
related; I could not really think of any related to correctness. The logic\
looks the same whether a thread wakes up/finishes its work early/on-time/late,\
or whether the thread is chosen vs. "steals" the work.
- Verified write throughput and CPU overhead are basically the same with and\
without this change, even in a rate limiter heavy workload:

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)

(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.
