Summary:
When we had a single thread pool for compactions, a thread could be busy for a long time (minutes) executing a compaction involving the bottom level. In multi-instance setups, the entire thread pool could be consumed by such bottom-level compactions. Then, top-level compactions (e.g., a few L0 files) would be blocked for a long time ("head-of-line blocking"). Such top-level compactions are critical to prevent compaction stalls as they can quickly reduce number of L0 files / sorted runs.
This diff introduces a bottom-priority queue for universal compactions including the bottom level. This alleviates the head-of-line blocking situation for fast, top-level compactions.
- Added `Env::Priority::BOTTOM` thread pool. This feature is only enabled if user explicitly configures it to have a positive number of threads.
- Changed `ThreadPoolImpl`'s default thread limit from one to zero. This change is invisible to users as we call `IncBackgroundThreadsIfNeeded` on the low-pri/high-pri pools during `DB::Open` with values of at least one. It is necessary, though, for bottom-pri to start with zero threads so the feature is disabled by default.
- Separated `ManualCompaction` into two parts in `PrepickedCompaction`. `PrepickedCompaction` is used for any compaction that's picked outside of its execution thread, either manual or automatic.
- Forward universal compactions involving last level to the bottom pool (worker thread's entry point is `BGWorkBottomCompaction`).
- Track `bg_bottom_compaction_scheduled_` so we can wait for bottom-level compactions to finish. We don't count them against the background jobs limits. So users of this feature will get an extra compaction for free.

Replace dynamic_cast<> so that users can choose to build with RTTI off, so that they can save several bytes per object, and get tiny more memory available.
Some nontrivial changes:
1. Add Comparator::GetRootComparator() to get around the internal comparator hack
2. Add the two experiemental functions to DB
3. Add TableFactory::GetOptionString() to avoid unnecessary casting to get the option string
4. Since 3 is done, move the parsing option functions for table factory to table factory files too, to be symmetric.

Summary:
Introducing FIFO compactions with TTL.
FIFO compaction is based on size only which makes it tricky to enable in production as use cases can have organic growth. A user requested an option to drop files based on the time of their creation instead of the total size.
To address that request:
- Added a new TTL option to FIFO compaction options.
- Updated FIFO compaction score to take TTL into consideration.
- Added a new table property, creation_time, to keep track of when the SST file is created.
- Creation_time is set as below:
- On Flush: Set to the time of flush.
- On Compaction: Set to the max creation_time of all the files involved in the compaction.
- On Repair and Recovery: Set to the time of repair/recovery.
- Old files created prior to this code change will have a creation_time of 0.
- FIFO compaction with TTL is enabled when ttl > 0. All files older than ttl will be deleted during compaction. i.e. `if (file.creation_time < (current_time - ttl)) then delete(file)`. This will enable cases where you might want to delete all files older than, say, 1 day.
- FIFO compaction will fall back to the prior way of deleting files based on size if:
- the creation_time of all files involved in compaction is 0.
- the total size (of all SST files combined) does not drop below `compaction_options_fifo.max_table_files_size` even if the files older than ttl are deleted.
This feature is not supported if max_open_files != -1 or with table formats other than Block-based.

Summary:
Improve write buffer manager in several ways:
1. Size is tracked when arena block is allocated, rather than every allocation, so that it can better track actual memory usage and the tracking overhead is slightly lower.
2. We start to trigger memtable flush when 7/8 of the memory cap hits, instead of 100%, and make 100% much harder to hit.
3. Allow a cache object to be passed into buffer manager and the size allocated by memtable can be costed there. This can help users have one single memory cap across block cache and memtable.

Summary:
- `max_background_flushes` and `max_background_compactions` are still supported for backwards compatibility
- `base_background_compactions` is completely deprecated. Now we just throttle to one background compaction when there's no pressure.
- `max_background_jobs` is added to automatically partition the concurrent background jobs into flushes vs compactions. Currently it's very simple as we just allocate one-fourth of the jobs to flushes, and the remaining can be used for compactions.
- The test cases that set `base_background_compactions > 1` needed to be updated. I just grab the pressure token such that the desired number of compactions can be scheduled.

Summary:
Previously users could set `max_background_flushes=0` to force rocksdb to use a single thread pool for both background flushes and compactions. That'll no longer be possible since I'm going to deprecate `max_background_flushes` and `max_background_compactions` in favor of a single option. This diff introduces a new way to force a single thread pool: when high-pri pool has zero threads, all background jobs will be submitted to low-pri pool.
Note the majority of the code change is adding `Env::GetBackgroundThreads()`, which is necessary to check whether the user has provided a zero-sized thread pool.

Summary:
PipelineWriteImpl is an alternative approach to WriteImpl. In WriteImpl, only one thread is allow to write at the same time. This thread will do both WAL and memtable writes for all write threads in the write group. Pending writers wait in queue until the current writer finishes. In the pipeline write approach, two queue is maintained: one WAL writer queue and one memtable writer queue. All writers (regardless of whether they need to write WAL) will still need to first join the WAL writer queue, and after the house keeping work and WAL writing, they will need to join memtable writer queue if needed. The benefit of this approach is that
1. Writers without memtable writes (e.g. the prepare phase of two phase commit) can exit write thread once WAL write is finish. They don't need to wait for memtable writes in case of group commit.
2. Pending writers only need to wait for previous WAL writer finish to be able to join the write thread, instead of wait also for previous memtable writes.

The bottleneck is we persist options files for every single column family create/drop, and it parses the persisted options file for verification, which take a lot CPU time.
The new APIs simply create/drop column families individually, and persist options file once at the end. This improves create 1k column families to within ~0.1s. Further improvement can be merge manifest write to one IO.

- L0->L0 is triggered when base level is unavailable due to pending compactions
- L0->L0 always outputs one file of at most `max_level0_burst_file_size` bytes.
- Subcompactions are disabled for L0->L0 since we want to output one file.
- Input files are chosen as the longest span of available files that will fit within the size limit. This minimizes number of files in L0.
