Summary:
Manual compaction may bring in very high load because sometime the amount of data involved in a compaction could be large, which may affect online service. So it would be good if the running compaction making the server busy can be stopped immediately. In this implementation, stopping manual compaction condition is only checked in slow process. We let deletion compaction and trivial move go through.

Summary:
In some cases, we don't have to get really accurate number. Something like 10% off is fine, we can create a new option for that use case. In this case, we can calculate size for full files first, and avoid estimation inside SST files if full files got us a huge number. For example, if we already covered 100GB of data, we should be able to skip partial dives into 10 SST files of 30MB.

Summary:
This PR adds more callers for table readers. These information are only used for block cache analysis so that we can know which caller accesses a block.
1. It renames the BlockCacheLookupCaller to TableReaderCaller as passing the caller from upstream requires changes to table_reader.h and TableReaderCaller is a more appropriate name.
2. It adds more table reader callers in table/table_reader_caller.h, e.g., kCompactionRefill, kExternalSSTIngestion, and kBuildTable.
This PR is long as it requires modification of interfaces in table_reader.h, e.g., NewIterator.

Summary:
BlockCacheLookupContext only contains the caller for now.
We will trace block accesses at five places:
1. BlockBasedTable::GetFilter.
2. BlockBasedTable::GetUncompressedDict.
3. BlockBasedTable::MaybeReadAndLoadToCache. (To trace access on data, index, and range deletion block.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Get. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
5. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
We create the context at:
1. BlockBasedTable::Get. (kUserGet)
2. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (kUserMGet)
3. BlockBasedTable::NewIterator. (either kUserIterator, kCompaction, or external SST ingestion calls this function.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Open. (kPrefetch)
5. Index/Filter::CacheDependencies. (kPrefetch)
6. BlockBasedTable::ApproximateOffsetOf. (kCompaction or kUserApproximateSize).
I loaded 1 million key-value pairs into the database and ran the readrandom benchmark with a single thread. I gave the block cache 10 GB to make sure all reads hit the block cache after warmup. The throughput is comparable.

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.
For simplicity, to avoid the feature is disabled in two cases: i) When more than one sub-compaction are sharing the same snapshot list, ii) when Range Delete is used in which the range delete aggregator has its own copy of snapshot list.
This fixes the reverted https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5099 issue with range deletes.

Summary:
Introducing Periodic Compactions.
This feature allows all the files in a CF to be periodically compacted. It could help in catching any corruptions that could creep into the DB proactively as every file is constantly getting re-compacted. And also, of course, it helps to cleanup data older than certain threshold.
- Introduced a new option `periodic_compaction_time` to control how long a file can live without being compacted in a CF.
- This works across all levels.
- The files are put in the same level after going through the compaction. (Related files in the same level are picked up as `ExpandInputstoCleanCut` is used).
- Compaction filters, if any, are invoked as usual.
- A new table property, `file_creation_time`, is introduced to implement this feature. This property is set to the time at which the SST file was created (and that time is given by the underlying Env/OS).
This feature can be enabled on its own, or in conjunction with `ttl`. It is possible to set a different time threshold for the bottom level when used in conjunction with ttl. Since `ttl` works only on 0 to last but one levels, you could set `ttl` to, say, 1 day, and `periodic_compaction_time` to, say, 7 days. Since `ttl < periodic_compaction_time` all files in last but one levels keep getting picked up based on ttl, and almost never based on periodic_compaction_time. The files in the bottom level get picked up for compaction based on `periodic_compaction_time`.

Summary:
This is a feature to sample data-block compressibility and and report them as stats. 1 in N (tunable) blocks is sampled for compressibility using two algorithms:
1. lz4 or snappy for fast compression
2. zstd or zlib for slow but higher compression.
The stats are reported to the caller as raw-bytes and compressed-bytes. The block continues to be compressed for storage using the specified CompressionType.
The db_bench_tool how has a command line option for specifying the sampling rate. It's default value is 0 (no sampling). To test the overhead for a certain value, users can compare the performance of db_bench_tool, varying the sampling rate. It is unlikely to have a noticeable impact for high values like 20.

Summary:
If `CompressionOptions::max_dict_bytes` and/or `CompressionOptions::zstd_max_train_bytes` are set, `SstFileWriter` will now generate files respecting those options.
I refactored the logic a bit for deciding when to use dictionary compression. Previously we plumbed `is_bottommost_level` down to the table builder and used that. However it was kind of confusing in `SstFileWriter`'s context since we don't know what level the file will be ingested to. Instead, now the higher-level callers (e.g., flush, compaction, file writer) are responsible for building the right `CompressionOptions` to give the table builder.

Summary:
Our previous approach was to train one compression dictionary per compaction, using the first output SST to train a dictionary, and then applying it on subsequent SSTs in the same compaction. While this was great for minimizing CPU/memory/I/O overhead, it did not achieve good compression ratios in practice. In our most promising potential use case, moderate reductions in a dictionary's scope make a major difference on compression ratio.
So, this PR changes compression dictionary to be scoped per-SST. It accepts the tradeoff during table building to use more memory and CPU. Important changes include:
- The `BlockBasedTableBuilder` has a new state when dictionary compression is in-use: `kBuffered`. In that state it accumulates uncompressed data in-memory whenever `Add` is called.
- After accumulating target file size bytes or calling `BlockBasedTableBuilder::Finish`, a `BlockBasedTableBuilder` moves to the `kUnbuffered` state. The transition (`EnterUnbuffered()`) involves sampling the buffered data, training a dictionary, and compressing/writing out all buffered data. In the `kUnbuffered` state, a `BlockBasedTableBuilder` behaves the same as before -- blocks are compressed/written out as soon as they fill up.
- Samples are now whole uncompressed data blocks, except the final sample may be a partial data block so we don't breach the user's configured `max_dict_bytes` or `zstd_max_train_bytes`. The dictionary trainer is supposed to work better when we pass it real units of compression. Previously we were passing 64-byte KV samples which was not realistic.

Summary:
We found that the behavior of CompactionFilter::IgnoreSnapshots() = false isn't
what we have expected. We thought that snapshot will always be preserved.
However, we just realized that, if no snapshot is created while compaction
starts, and a snapshot is created after that, the data seen from the snapshot
can successfully be dropped by the compaction. This creates a strange behavior
to the feature, which is hard to explain. Like what is documented in code
comment, this feature is not very useful with snapshot anyway. The decision
is to deprecate the feature.
We keep the function to avoid to break users code. However, we will fail
compactions if false is returned.

Summary:
It is possible to see a situation like the following when
subcompactions are enabled:
1. A subcompaction boundary is set to `[b, e)`.
2. The first output file in a subcompaction has `c@20` as its smallest key
3. The range tombstone `[a, d)30` is encountered.
4. The tombstone is written to the range-del meta block and the new
smallest key is set to `b@0` (since no keys in this subcompaction's
output can be smaller than `b`).
5. A key `b@10` in a lower level will now reappear, since it is not
covered by the truncated start key `b@0`.
In general, unless the smallest data key in a file has a seqnum of 0, it
is not safe to truncate a tombstone at the start key to have a seqnum of
0, since it can expose keys with a seqnum greater than 0 but less than
the tombstone's actual seqnum.
To fix this, when the lower bound of a file is from the subcompaction
boundaries, we now set the seqnum of an artificially extended smallest
key to the tombstone's seqnum. This is safe because subcompactions
operate over disjoint sets of keys, and the subcompactions that can
experience this problem are not the first subcompaction (which is
unbounded on the left).
Furthermore, there is now an assertion to detect the described anomalous
case.

The old RangeDelAggregator did expensive pre-processing work
to create a collapsed, binary-searchable representation of range
tombstones. With FragmentedRangeTombstoneIterator, much of this work is
now unnecessary. RangeDelAggregatorV2 takes advantage of this by seeking
in each iterator to find a covering tombstone in ShouldDelete, while
doing minimal work in AddTombstones. The old RangeDelAggregator is still
used during flush/compaction for now, though RangeDelAggregatorV2 will
support those uses in a future PR.

Summary:
Do not consider the range tombstone sentinel key as causing 2 adjacent
sstables in a level to overlap. When a range tombstone's end key is the
largest key in an sstable, the sstable's end key is so to a "sentinel"
value that is the smallest key in the next sstable with a sequence
number of kMaxSequenceNumber. This "sentinel" is guaranteed to not
overlap in internal-key space with the next sstable. Unfortunately,
GetOverlappingFiles uses user-keys to determine overlap and was thus
considering 2 adjacent sstables in a level to overlap if they were
separated by this sentinel key. This in turn would cause compactions to
be larger than necessary.
Note that this conflicts with
https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/2769 and cases
`DBRangeDelTest.CompactionTreatsSplitInputLevelDeletionAtomically` to
fail.

Summary:
This fixes the same performance issue that #3992 fixes but with much more invasive cleanup.
I'm more excited about this PR because it paves the way for fixing another problem we uncovered at Cockroach where range deletion tombstones can cause massive compactions. For example, suppose L4 contains deletions from [a, c) and [x, z) and no other keys, and L5 is entirely empty. L6, however, is full of data. When compacting L4 -> L5, we'll end up with one file that spans, massively, from [a, z). When we go to compact L5 -> L6, we'll have to rewrite all of L6! If, instead of range deletions in L4, we had keys a, b, x, y, and z, RocksDB would have been smart enough to create two files in L5: one for a and b and another for x, y, and z.
With the changes in this PR, it will be possible to adjust the compaction logic to split tombstones/start new output files when they would span too many files in the grandparent level.
ajkr please take a look when you have a minute!
