Summary:
WritePrepared maintains a list of snapshots that are <= max_evicted_seq_. Based on this list, old_commit_map_ is updated if an evicted commit entry overlaps with such snapshot. Such lists are garbage collected when the release of snapshot is reported to WritePreparedTxnDB, which is the next time max_evicted_seq_ is updated and yet the snapshot is not found is the list returned from DB. This logic was broken since ReleaseSnapshotInternal was using "< max_evicted_seq_" to cleanup old_commit_map_, which would leave a snapshot uncleaned if it "= max_evicted_seq_". The patch fixes that and adds a unit test to check for the bug.

Summary:
Fix how CompactionIterator::findEarliestVisibleSnapshots handles released snapshot. It fixing the two scenarios:
Scenario 1:
key1 has two values v1 and v2. There're two snapshots s1 and s2 taken after v1 and v2 are committed. Right after compaction output v2, s1 is released. Now findEarliestVisibleSnapshot may see s1 being released, and return the next snapshot, which is s2. That's larger than v2's earliest visible snapshot, which was s1.
The fix: the only place we check against last snapshot and current key snapshot is when we decide whether to compact out a value if it is hidden by a later value. In the check if we see current snapshot is even larger than last snapshot, we know last snapshot is released, and we are safe to compact out current key.
Scenario 2:
key1 has two values v1 and v2. there are two snapshots s1 and s2 taken after v1 and v2 are committed. During compaction before we process the key, s1 is released. When compaction process v2, snapshot checker may return kSnapshotReleased, and the earliest visible snapshot for v2 become s2. When compaction process v1, snapshot checker may return kIsInSnapshot (for WritePrepared transaction, it could be because v1 is still in commit cache). The result will become inconsistent here.
The fix: remember the set of released snapshots ever reported by snapshot checker, and ignore them when finding result for findEarliestVisibleSnapshot.

Summary:
Here is the order of ops in a commit: 1) update commit cache 2) publish seq, 3) RemovePrepared. In case of a delayed prepared, there will be a gap between when the commit is visible to snapshots until delayed_prepared_ is cleaned up. To tell apart this case from a delayed uncommitted txn from, the commit entry of a delayed prepared is also stored in delayed_prepared_commits_, which is updated before publishing the commit.
Also logic in GetSnapshotInternal that ensures that each new snapshot is always larger than max_evicted_seq_ is updated to check against the upcoming value of max_evicted_seq_ rather than its current one. This is because AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq gets the list of snapshots lower than the new max, before updating max_evicted_seq_.

Summary:
Compaction iterator keep a copy of list of live snapshots at the beginning of compaction, and then query snapshot checker to verify if values of a sequence number is visible to these snapshots. However when the snapshot is released in the middle of compaction, the snapshot checker implementation (i.e. WritePreparedSnapshotChecker) may remove info with the snapshot and may report incorrect result, which lead to values being compacted out when it shouldn't. This patch conservatively keep the values if snapshot checker determines that the snapshots is released.

Summary:
With WritePrepared transaction, flush/compaction can contain uncommitted keys, and those keys can get committed during compaction. If a snapshot is taken before the key is committed, it should not see the key. On the other hand, compaction grab the list of snapshots at its beginning, and only consider those snapshots to dedup keys. Consider the case:
```
seq = 1: put "foo" = "bar"
seq = 2: transaction T: delete "foo", prepare
seq = 3: compaction start
seq = 4: take snapshot S
seq = 5: transaction T: commit.
...
seq = N: compaction iterator reached key "foo".
```
When compaction start, the list of snapshot is empty. Compaction doesn't take snapshot S into account. When it reached "foo", transaction T is committed. Compaction may think the value "foo=bar" is not visible by any snapshot (which is wrong), and compact the value out.
The fix is to explicitly take a snapshot before compaction grabbing the list of snapshots. Compaction will then has to keep keys visible to this snapshot.

Summary:
The AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq algorithm assumes that new snapshots always have sequence number larger than the last max_evicted_seq_. To enforce this assumption we make two changes:
i) max is not advanced beyond the last published seq, with the exception that the evicted commit entry itself is not published yet, which is quite rare.
ii) When obtaining the snapshot if the max_evicted_seq_ is not published yet, commit a dummy entry so that it waits for it to be published and also increased the latest published seq by one above the max.
To test these non-realistic corner cases we create a commit cache with size 1 so that every single commit results into eviction.

Summary:
Previously IsInSnapshot assumed that the snapshot is valid at the time that the function is called. However there are cases where that might not be valid. Example is background compactions where the compaction algorithm operates with a list of snapshots some of which might be released by the time they are being passed to IsInSnapshot. The patch make two changes to enable the caller to tell difference: i) any live snapshot below max is added to max_committed_seq_, which allows IsInSnapshot to confidently tell whether the passed snapshot is invalid if it below max, ii) extends IsInSnapshot API with a "released" variable that is set true when IsInSnapshot find no such snapshot below max and also find no other way to give a certain return value. In such cases the return value is true but the caller should also check the "released" boolean after the call.
In short here is the changes in the API:
i) If the snapshot is valid, no change is required.
ii) If the snapshot might be invalid, a reference to "released" boolean must be passed to IsInSnapshot.
ii-a) If snapshot is above max, IsInSnapshot can figure the return valid using the commit cache.
ii-b) otherwise if snapshot is in old_commit_map_, IsInSnapshot can use that to tell if value was visible to the snapshot.
ii-c) otherwise it sets "released" to true and returns true as well.

Summary:
IsInSnapshotEmptyMapTest tests that IsInSnapshot returns correct value for existing data after a recovery, where max is not zero and yet commit cache is empty. The existing test was preliminary which is improved in this patch. It also increases the db sequence after recovery so that there the snapshot immediately taken after recovery would have a sequence number different than that of max_evicted_seq. This simplifies the logic in IsInSnapshot by not having to consider the special case that an old snapshot might be equal to max_evicted_seq and yet not present in old_commit_map.

Summary:
Currently the garbage collection of items in old_commit_map_ was done upon ::ReleaseSnapshot. The assumption behind this method was that the sequence number of snapshots are unique, which is incorrect. In the very rare cases that two consecutive snapshot have the same sequence number this could lead the release of the first snapshot affect the old_commit_map_ that is necessary to service the reads of the second snapshot. The bug would be triggered only if i) two snapshot have the same seq, ii) both of them are very old (older than the last ~4m transactions), and iii) there is commit entry overlapping with the snapshot seq number.
It is fixed by doing the cleanup of old_commit_map_ in UpdateSnapshot: the new list of snapshots are compared with the old one and the missing sequence numbers are concluded released. If two snapshots have the same seq number, after the release of one of them, the seq number still appears in the snapshot least and thus not cleaned up prematurely.

Summary:
When evicting an entry form the commit_cache, it is verified against the list of old snapshots to see if it overlaps with any. The list of old snapshots is split into two lists: an efficient concurrent cache and an slow vector protected by a lock. The patch fixes a bug that would stop the search in the cache if it finds any and yet would not include the larger snapshots in the slower list.
An extra info log entry is also removed. The condition to trigger that although very rare is still feasible and should not spam the LOG when that happens.

Summary:
We introduced smallest_prep optimization in this commit b225de7e10, which enables storing the smallest uncommitted sequence number along with the snapshot. This enables the readers that read from the snapshot to skip further checks and safely assumed the data is committed if its sequence number is less than smallest uncommitted when the snapshot was taken. The problem was that smallest uncommitted and the snapshot must be taken atomically, and the lack of atomicity had led to readers using a smallest uncommitted after the snapshot was taken and hence mistakenly skipping some data.
This patch fixes the problem by i) separating the process of removing of prepare entries from the AddCommitted function, ii) removing the prepare entires AFTER the committed sequence number is published, iii) getting smallest uncommitted (from the prepare list) BEFORE taking a snapshot. This guarantees that the smallest uncommitted that is accompanied with a snapshot is less than or equal of such number if it was obtained atomically.

With WriteCommitted, when the write batch has duplicate keys, the txn db simply inserts them to the db with different seq numbers and let the db ignore/merge the duplicate values at the read time. With WritePrepared all the entries of the batch are inserted with the same seq number which prevents us from benefiting from this simple solution.
This patch applies a hackish solution to unblock the end-to-end testing. The hack is to be replaced with a proper solution soon. The patch simply detects the duplicate key insertions, and mark the previous one as obsolete. Then before writing to the db it rewrites the batch eliminating the obsolete keys. This would incur a memcpy cost. Furthermore handing duplicate merge would require to do FullMerge instead of simply ignoring the previous value, which is not handled by this patch.
