Summary:
With many millions of keys, the old Bloom filter implementation
for the block-based table (format_version <= 4) would have excessive FP
rate due to the limitations of feeding the Bloom filter with a 32-bit hash.
This change computes an estimated inflated FP rate due to this effect
and warns in the log whenever an SST filter is constructed (almost
certainly a "full" not "partitioned" filter) that exceeds 1.5x FP rate
due to this effect. The detailed condition is only checked if 3 million
keys or more have been added to a filter, as this should be a lower
bound for common bits/key settings (< 20).
Recommended remedies include smaller SST file size, using
format_version >= 5 (for new Bloom filter), or using partitioned
filters.
This does not change behavior other than generating warnings for some
constructed filters using the old implementation.

Test Plan:
Example with warning, 15M keys @ 15 bits / key: (working_mem_size_mb is just to stop after building one filter if it's large)
$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -working_mem_size_mb=1 -bits_per_key=15 -average_keys_per_filter=15000000 2>&1 | grep 'FP rate'
[WARN] [/block_based/filter_policy.cc:292] Using legacy SST/BBT Bloom filter with excessive key count (15.0M @ 15bpk), causing estimated 1.8x higher filter FP rate. Consider using new Bloom with format_version>=5, smaller SST file size, or partitioned filters.
Predicted FP rate %: 0.766702
Average FP rate %: 0.66846
Example without warning (150K keys):
$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -working_mem_size_mb=1 -bits_per_key=15 -average_keys_per_filter=150000 2>&1 | grep 'FP rate'
Predicted FP rate %: 0.422857
Average FP rate %: 0.379301
$
With more samples at 15 bits/key:
150K keys -> no warning; actual: 0.379% FP rate (baseline)
1M keys -> no warning; actual: 0.396% FP rate, 1.045x
9M keys -> no warning; actual: 0.563% FP rate, 1.485x
10M keys -> warning (1.5x); actual: 0.564% FP rate, 1.488x
15M keys -> warning (1.8x); actual: 0.668% FP rate, 1.76x
25M keys -> warning (2.4x); actual: 0.880% FP rate, 2.32x
At 10 bits/key:
150K keys -> no warning; actual: 1.17% FP rate (baseline)
1M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.16% FP rate
10M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.32% FP rate, 1.13x
25M keys -> no warning; actual: 1.63% FP rate, 1.39x
35M keys -> warning (1.6x); actual: 1.81% FP rate, 1.55x
At 5 bits/key:
150K keys -> no warning; actual: 9.32% FP rate (baseline)
25M keys -> no warning; actual: 9.62% FP rate, 1.03x
200M keys -> no warning; actual: 12.2% FP rate, 1.31x
250M keys -> warning (1.5x); actual: 12.8% FP rate, 1.37x
300M keys -> warning (1.6x); actual: 13.4% FP rate, 1.43x
The reason for the modest inaccuracy at low bits/key is that the assumption of independence between a collision between 32-hash values feeding the filter and an FP in the filter is not quite true for implementations using "simple" logic to compute indices from the stock hash result. There's math on this in my dissertation, but I don't think it's worth the effort just for these extreme cases (> 100 million keys and low-ish bits/key).

Summary:
There's no technological impediment to allowing the Bloom
filter bits/key to be non-integer (fractional/decimal) values, and it
provides finer control over the memory vs. accuracy trade-off. This is
especially handy in using the format_version=5 Bloom filter in place
of the old one, because bits_per_key=9.55 provides the same accuracy as
the old bits_per_key=10.
This change not only requires refining the logic for choosing the best
num_probes for a given bits/key setting, it revealed a flaw in that logic.
As bits/key gets higher, the best num_probes for a cache-local Bloom
filter is closer to bpk / 2 than to bpk * 0.69, the best choice for a
standard Bloom filter. For example, at 16 bits per key, the best
num_probes is 9 (FP rate = 0.0843%) not 11 (FP rate = 0.0884%).
This change fixes and refines that logic (for the format_version=5
Bloom filter only, just in case) based on empirical tests to find
accuracy inflection points between each num_probes.
Although bits_per_key is now specified as a double, the new Bloom
filter converts/rounds this to "millibits / key" for predictable/precise
internal computations. Just in case of unforeseen compatibility
issues, we round to the nearest whole number bits / key for the
legacy Bloom filter, so as not to unlock new behaviors for it.

Summary:
Adds an improved, replacement Bloom filter implementation (FastLocalBloom) for full and partitioned filters in the block-based table. This replacement is faster and more accurate, especially for high bits per key or millions of keys in a single filter.
Speed
The improved speed, at least on recent x86_64, comes from
* Using fastrange instead of modulo (%)
* Using our new hash function (XXH3 preview, added in a previous commit), which is much faster for large keys and only *slightly* slower on keys around 12 bytes if hashing the same size many thousands of times in a row.
* Optimizing the Bloom filter queries with AVX2 SIMD operations. (Added AVX2 to the USE_SSE=1 build.) Careful design was required to support (a) SIMD-optimized queries, (b) compatible non-SIMD code that's simple and efficient, (c) flexible choice of number of probes, and (d) essentially maximized accuracy for a cache-local Bloom filter. Probes are made eight at a time, so any number of probes up to 8 is the same speed, then up to 16, etc.
* Prefetching cache lines when building the filter. Although this optimization could be applied to the old structure as well, it seems to balance out the small added cost of accumulating 64 bit hashes for adding to the filter rather than 32 bit hashes.
Here's nominal speed data from filter_bench (200MB in filters, about 10k keys each, 10 bits filter data / key, 6 probes, avg key size 24 bytes, includes hashing time) on Skylake DE (relatively low clock speed):
$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=2 -net_includes_hashing # New Bloom filter
Build avg ns/key: 47.7135
Mixed inside/outside queries...
Single filter net ns/op: 26.2825
Random filter net ns/op: 150.459
Average FP rate %: 0.954651
$ ./filter_bench -quick -impl=0 -net_includes_hashing # Old Bloom filter
Build avg ns/key: 47.2245
Mixed inside/outside queries...
Single filter net ns/op: 63.2978
Random filter net ns/op: 188.038
Average FP rate %: 1.13823
Similar build time but dramatically faster query times on hot data (63 ns to 26 ns), and somewhat faster on stale data (188 ns to 150 ns). Performance differences on batched and skewed query loads are between these extremes as expected.
The only other interesting thing about speed is "inside" (query key was added to filter) vs. "outside" (query key was not added to filter) query times. The non-SIMD implementations are substantially slower when most queries are "outside" vs. "inside". This goes against what one might expect or would have observed years ago, as "outside" queries only need about two probes on average, due to short-circuiting, while "inside" always have num_probes (say 6). The problem is probably the nastily unpredictable branch. The SIMD implementation has few branches (very predictable) and has pretty consistent running time regardless of query outcome.
Accuracy
The generally improved accuracy (re: Issue https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5857) comes from a better design for probing indices
within a cache line (re: Issue https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/4120) and improved accuracy for millions of keys in a single filter from using a 64-bit hash function (XXH3p). Design details in code comments.
Accuracy data (generalizes, except old impl gets worse with millions of keys):
Memory bits per key: FP rate percent old impl -> FP rate percent new impl
6: 5.70953 -> 5.69888
8: 2.45766 -> 2.29709
10: 1.13977 -> 0.959254
12: 0.662498 -> 0.411593
16: 0.353023 -> 0.0873754
24: 0.261552 -> 0.0060971
50: 0.225453 -> ~0.00003 (less than 1 in a million queries are FP)

Unlike the old implementation, this implementation has a fixed cache line size (64 bytes). At 10 bits per key, the accuracy of this new implementation is very close to the old implementation with 128-byte cache line size. If there's sufficient demand, this implementation could be generalized.
Compatibility
Although old releases would see the new structure as corrupt filter data and read the table as if there's no filter, we've decided only to enable the new Bloom filter with new format_version=5. This provides a smooth path for automatic adoption over time, with an option for early opt-in.

Test Plan: filter_bench has been used thoroughly to validate speed, accuracy, and correctness. Unit tests have been carefully updated to exercise new and old implementations, as well as the logic to select an implementation based on context (format_version).

Summary:
Refactoring to consolidate implementation details of legacy
Bloom filters. This helps to organize and document some related,
obscure code.
Also added make/cpp var TEST_CACHE_LINE_SIZE so that it's easy to
compile and run unit tests for non-native cache line size. (Fixed a
related test failure in db_properties_test.)
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5784
Test Plan:
make check, including Recently added Bloom schema unit tests
(in ./plain_table_db_test && ./bloom_test), and including with
TEST_CACHE_LINE_SIZE=128U and TEST_CACHE_LINE_SIZE=256U. Tested the
schema tests with temporary fault injection into new implementations.
Some performance testing with modified unit tests suggest a small to moderate
improvement in speed.
