Summary:
1. prepare()
2. crash
3. recover
4. commit()
5. crash
6. data is lost
This is due to the transaction data still only residing in the WAL but because the logs were flushed on the first recovery the data is ignored on the second recovery. We must scan all logs found on recovery and only ignore redundant data at the time of replay. It is not possible to know which logs still contain relevant data at time of recovery. We cannot simply ignore a log because all of the non-2pc data it contains has already been written to L0.
The changes made to MemTableInserter are to ensure that prepared sections are still recovered even if all of the non-2pc data in that log has already been flushed to L0.

Summary:
Consider the following WAL with 4 batch entries prefixed with their sequence at time of memtable insert.
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(a)]
[1: BEGIN_PREPARE, PUT, PUT, PUT, PUT, END_PREPARE(b)]
[4: COMMIT(a)]
[7: COMMIT(b)]
The first two batches do not consume any sequence numbers so are both prefixed with seq=1.
For 2pc commit, memtable insertion takes place before COMMIT batch is written to WAL.
We can see that sequence number consumption takes place between WAL entries giving us the seemingly sparse sequence prefix for WAL entries.
This is a valid WAL.
Because with 2PC markers one WriteBatch points to another batch containing its inserts a writebatch can consume more or less sequence numbers than the number of sequence consuming entries that it contains.
We can see that, given the entries in the WAL, 6 sequence ids were consumed. Yet on recovery the maximum sequence consumed would be 7 + 3 (the number of sequence numbers consumed by COMMIT(b))
So, now upon recovery we must track the actual consumption of sequence numbers.
In the provided scenario there will be no sequence gaps, but it is possible to produce a sequence gap. This should not be a problem though. correct?

Summary: There is an issue in DBImpl::WriteImpl where if an empty writebatch comes in and sync=true then the logs will be marked as being synced yet the sync never actually happens because there is no data in the writebatch. This causes the next incoming batch to hang while waiting for the logs to complete syncing. This fix syncs logs even if the writebatch is empty.

Summary:
Currently, transactions can fail even if there is no actual write conflict. This is due to relying on only the memtables to check for write-conflicts. Users have to tune memtable settings to try to avoid this, but it's hard to figure out exactly how to tune these settings.
With this diff, TransactionDB will use both memtables and SST files to determine if there are any write conflicts. This relies on the fact that BlockBasedTable stores sequence numbers for all writes that happen after any open snapshot. Also, D50295 is needed to prevent SingleDelete from disappearing writes (the TODOs in this test code will be fixed once the other diff is approved and merged).
Note that Optimistic transactions will still rely on tuning memtable settings as we do not want to read from SST while on the write thread. Also, memtable settings can still be used to reduce how often TransactionDB needs to read SST files.

Summary: When SetSnapshot() is used the caller immediately knows a snapshot has been created, but when SetSnapshotOnNextOperation() is used the caller needs a way to get notified when that snapshot has been generated. This creates an interface that the client can implement that will be called at the time the snapshot is created.

Summary:
MyRocks reported some perfomance issues when inserting many keys into a transaction due to the cost of inserting new keys into WriteBatchWithIndex. Frequently, they don't even need the keys to be indexed as they don't need to read them back. DisableIndexing() can be used to avoid the cost of indexing.
I also plan on eventually investigating if we can improve WriteBatchWithIndex performance. But even if we improved the perf here, it is still beneficial to be able to disable the indexing all together for large transactions.

Summary:
WriteBatchWithIndex::GetFromBatchAndDB only works correctly for overwrite_key=false. Transactions use overwrite_key=true (since WriteBatchWithIndex::GetIteratorWithBase only works when overwrite_key=true). So currently, Transactions could return incorrectly merged results when calling Get/GetForUpdate().
Until a permanent fix can be put in place, Transaction::Get[ForUpdate] and WriteBatchWithIndex::GetFromBatch[AndDB] will now return MergeInProgress if the most recent write to a key in the batch is a Merge.

Also, you'll notice a couple of TODOs in the implementation of RollbackToSavePoint(). After chatting with Siying, I'm going to send out a separate diff for an alternate implementation of this feature that implements the rollback inside of WriteBatch/WriteBatchWithIndex. We can then decide which route is preferable.
Next, I'm planning on doing some perf testing and then integrating this diff into MongoRocks for further testing.
