Summary:
We have a lot of confusing code because of mixed, sometimes
completely opposite uses of of the term "raw block" or "raw contents",
sometimes within the same source file. For example, in `BlockBasedTableBuilder`,
`raw_block_contents` and `raw_size` generally referred to uncompressed block
contents and size, while `WriteRawBlock` referred to writing a block that
is already compressed if it is going to be. Meanwhile, in
`BlockBasedTable`, `raw_block_contents` either referred to a (maybe
compressed) block with trailer, or a maybe compressed block maybe
without trailer. (Note: left as follow-up work to use C++ typing to
better sort out the various kinds of BlockContents.)
This change primarily tries to apply some consistent terminology around
the kinds of block representations, avoiding the unclear "raw". (Any
meaning of "raw" assumes some bias toward the storage layer or toward
the logical data layer.) Preferred terminology:
* **Serialized block** - bytes that go into storage. For block-based table
(usually the case) this includes the block trailer. WART: block `size` may or
may not include the trailer; need to be clear about whether it does or not.
* **Maybe compressed block** - like a serialized block, but without the
trailer (or no promise of including a trailer). Must be accompanied by a
CompressionType.
* **Uncompressed block** - "payload" bytes that are either stored with no
compression, used as input to compression function, or result of
decompression function.
* **Parsed block** - an in-memory form of a block in block cache, as it is
used by the table reader. Different C++ types are used depending on the
block type (see block_like_traits.h).
Other refactorings:
* Misc corrections/improvements of internal API comments
* Remove a few misleading / unhelpful / redundant comments.
* Use move semantics in some places to simplify contracts
* Use better parameter names to indicate which parameters are used for
outputs
* Remove some extraneous `extern`
* Various clean-ups to `CacheDumperImpl` (mostly unnecessary code)

Summary:
When dynamically linking two binaries together, different builds of RocksDB from two sources might cause errors. To provide a tool for user to solve the problem, the RocksDB namespace is changed to a flag which can be overridden in build time.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6433
Test Plan: Build release, all and jtest. Try to build with ROCKSDB_NAMESPACE with another flag.

Summary:
Added a new abstraction to cache page to RocksDB designed for the read
cache use.
RocksDB current block cache is more of an object cache. For the persistent read cache
project, what we need is a page cache equivalent. This changes adds a cache
abstraction to RocksDB to cache pages called PersistentCache. PersistentCache can cache
uncompressed pages or raw pages (content as in filesystem). The user can
choose to operate PersistentCache either in COMPRESSED or UNCOMPRESSED mode.
