Summary:
Previously each time we write a blob we write blog_record_header + key + value + blob_record_footer to blob log. The footer only contains a sequence and a crc for the sequence number. The sequence number was used in garbage collection to verify the value is recent. After #2703 we moved to use optimistic transaction and no longer use sequence number from the footer. Remove the footer altogether.
There's another usage of sequence number and we are keeping it: Each blob log file keep track of sequence number range of keys in it, and use it to check if it is reference by a snapshot, before being deleted.
