Summary:
This is a rough sketch of our new document API. Would like to get some thoughts and comments about the high-level architecture and API.
I didn't optimize for performance at all. Leaving some low-hanging fruit so that we can be happy when we fix them! :)
Currently, bunch of features are not supported at all. Indexes can be only specified when creating database. There is no query planner whatsoever. This will all be added in due time.

1) writes associated with this options MAY be aborted when it has been
waiting for longer than the specified time. If an abortion happens,

Summary:
After evaluating options for JSON storage, I decided to implement our own. The reason is that we'll be able to optimize it better and we get to reduce unnecessary dependencies (which is what we'd get with folly).
I also plan to write a serializer/deserializer for JSONDocument with our own binary format similar to BSON. That way we'll store binary JSON format in RocksDB instead of the plain-text JSON. This means less storage and faster deserialization.
There are still some inefficiencies left here. I plan to optimize them after we develop a functioning DocumentDB. That way we can move and iterate faster.

Currently, the in-memory hash index of blockbased table uses a precise hash map to track the prefix to block range mapping. In some use cases, especially when prefix itself is big, the memory overhead becomes a problem. This diff introduces a fixed hash bucket array that does not store the prefix and allows prefix collision, which is similar to the plaintable hash index, in order to reduce the memory consumption.

2. Add an option to create iterator from arena for following iterators: DBIter, MergingIterator, MemtableIterator, all mem table's iterators, all table reader's iterators and two level iterator.
3. MergeIteratorBuilder is created to incrementally build the tree of internal iterators. It is passed to mem table list and version set and add iterators to it.
Limitations:
(1) Only DB::NewIterator() without tailing uses the arena. Other cases, including readonly DB and compactions are still from malloc
(2) Two level iterator itself is allocated in arena, but not iterators inside it.

Summary:
This patch changes meaning of options.bloom_locality: 0 means disable cache line optimization and any positive number means use CACHE_LINE_SIZE as block size (the previous behavior is the block size will be CACHE_LINE_SIZE*options.bloom_locality). By doing it, the divide operations inside a block can be replaced by a shift.
Performance is improved:

Also, improve the basic algorithm in two ways:
(1) make sure num of blocks is an odd number
(2) rotate bytes after every probe in locality mode. Since the divider is 2^n, unless doing it, we are never able to use all the bits.

Summary:
This diff addresses task #4296714 and rethinks how users provide us with TablePropertiesCollectors as part of Options.
Here's description of task #4296714:
I'm debugging #4295529 and noticed that our count of user properties kDeletedKeys is wrong. We're sharing one single InternalKeyPropertiesCollector with all Table Builders. In LOG Files, we're outputting number of kDeletedKeys as connected with a single table, while it's actually the total count of deleted keys since creation of the DB.
For example, this table has 3155 entries and 1391828 deleted keys.
The problem with current approach that we call methods on a single TablePropertiesCollector for all the tables we create. Even worse, we could do it from multiple threads at the same time and TablePropertiesCollector has no way of knowing which table we're calling it for.
Good part: Looks like nobody inside Facebook is using Options::table_properties_collectors. This means we should be able to painfully change the API.
In this change, I introduce TablePropertiesCollectorFactory. For every table we create, we call `CreateTablePropertiesCollector`, which creates a TablePropertiesCollector for a single table. We then use it sequentially from a single thread, which means it doesn't have to be thread-safe.
Test Plan:
Added a test in table_properties_collector_test that fails on master (build two tables, assert that kDeletedKeys count is correct for the second one).
Also, all other tests

Summary:
This diff is addressing multiple things with a single goal -- to make RocksDB easier to use:
* Add some functions to Options that make RocksDB easier to tune.
* Add example code for both simple RocksDB and RocksDB with Column Families.
* Rewrite our README.md
Regarding Options, I took a stab at something we talked about for a long time:
* https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/permalink/563169950448190/
I added functions:
* IncreaseParallelism() -- easy, increases the thread pool and max_background_compactions
* OptimizeLevelStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- the easiest way to optimize rocksdb for less stalls with level style compaction. This is very likely not ideal configuration. Feel free to suggest improvements. I used some of Mark's suggestions from here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/54
* OptimizeUniversalStyleCompaction(memtable_memory_budget) -- optimize for universal compaction.

Summary:
= Major Changes =
* Add a new mem-table representation, HashCuckooRep, which is based cuckoo hash.
Cuckoo hash uses multiple hash functions. This allows each key to have multiple
possible locations in the mem-table.
- Put: When insert a key, it will try to find whether one of its possible
locations is vacant and store the key. If none of its possible
locations are available, then it will kick out a victim key and
store at that location. The kicked-out victim key will then be
stored at a vacant space of its possible locations or kick-out
another victim. In this diff, the kick-out path (known as
cuckoo-path) is found using BFS, which guarantees to be the shortest.
- Get: Simply tries all possible locations of a key --- this guarantees
worst-case constant time complexity.
- Time complexity: O(1) for Get, and average O(1) for Put if the
fullness of the mem-table is below 80%.
- Default using two hash functions, the number of hash functions used
by the cuckoo-hash may dynamically increase if it fails to find a
short-enough kick-out path.
- Currently, HashCuckooRep does not support iteration and snapshots,
as our current main purpose of this is to optimize point access.
= Minor Changes =
* Add IsSnapshotSupported() to DB to indicate whether the current DB
supports snapshots. If it returns false, then DB::GetSnapshot() will
always return nullptr.
Test Plan:
Run existing tests. Will develop a test specifically for cuckoo hash in
the next diff.
