Summary:
This adds the rate_delay_limit_milliseconds option to make the delay
configurable in MakeRoomForWrite when the max compaction score is too high.
This delay is called the Ln slowdown. This change also counts the Ln slowdown
per level to make it possible to see where the stalls occur.
From IO-bound performance testing, the Level N stalls occur:
* with compression -> at the largest uncompressed level. This makes sense
because compaction for compressed levels is much
slower. When Lx is uncompressed and Lx+1 is compressed
then files pile up at Lx because the (Lx,Lx+1)->Lx+1
compaction process is the first to be slowed by
compression.
* without compression -> at level 1

Summary:
Rocks accumulates recent writes and deletes in the in-memory memtable.
When the memtable is full, it writes the contents on the memtable to
a file in L0.
This patch removes redundant records at the time of the flush. If there
are multiple versions of the same key in the memtable, then only the
most recent one is dumped into the output file. The purging of
redundant records occur only if the most recent snapshot is earlier
than the earliest record in the memtable.
Should we switch on this feature by default or should we keep this feature
turned off in the default settings?

Summary:
flush_on_destroy has a default value of false and the memtable is flushed
in the dbimpl-destructor only when that is set to true. Because we want the memtable to be flushed everytime that
the destructor is called(db is closed) and the cases where we work with the memtable only are very less
it is a good idea to give this a default value of true. Thus the put from ldb
wil have its data flushed to disk in the destructor and the next Get will be able to
read it when opened with OpenForReadOnly. The reason that ldb could read the latest value when
the db was opened in the normal Open mode is that the Get from normal Open first reads
the memtable and directly finds the latest value written there and the Get from OpenForReadOnly
doesn't have access to the memtable (which is correct because all its Put/Modify) are disabled
Test Plan: make all; ldb put and get and scans

in readonly mode. This call had an option to not process the
transaction log. This patch removes this option and always
processes all transactions that had been committed. It has
been done in such a way that it does not create/write to
any new files in the process. The invariant of "no-writes"
to the leveldb data directory is still true.
This enhancement allows multiple threads to open the same database
in readonly mode and access all trancations that were committed right
upto the OpenForReadOnly call.

LevelDB should delete almost-new keys when a long-open snapshot exists.
The previous behavior is to keep all versions that were created after the
oldest open snapshot. This can lead to database size bloat for
high-update workloads when there are long-open snapshots and long-open
snapshot will be used for logical backup. By "almost new" I mean that the
key was updated more than once after the oldest snapshot.
If there were two snapshots with seq numbers s1 and s2 (s1 < s2), and if
we find two instances of the same key k1 that lie entirely within s1 and
s2 (i.e. s1 < k1 < s2), then the earlier version
of k1 can be safely deleted because that version is not visible in any snapshot.

Summary:
When a new version is created, we sort all the files at every
level based on their size. This is necessary because we want
to compact the largest file first. The sorting takes quite a
bit of CPU.
Moved the sorting code to be outside the mutex. Also, the
earlier code was sorting files at all levels but we do not
need to sort the highest-number level because those files
are never the cause of any compaction. To reduce sorting
costs, we sort only the first few files in each level
because it is likely that those are the only files in that
level that will be picked for compaction.
At steady state, I have seen that this patch increase
throughout from 1500 writes/sec to 1700 writes/sec at the
end of a 72 hour run. The cpu saving by not sorting the
last level was not distinctive in this test run because
there were only 100K files in the highest numbered level.
I expect the cpu saving to be significant when the number of
files is much higher.
This is mostly an early preview and not ready for rigorous review.
With this patch, the writs/sec is now bottlenecked not by the sorting code but by GetOverlappingInputs. I am working on a patch to optimize GetOverlappingInputs.

Summary:
The leveldb API is enhanced to support different compression algorithms at
different levels.
This adds the option min_level_to_compress to db_bench that specifies
the minimum level for which compression should be done when
compression is enabled. This can be used to disable compression for levels
0 and 1 which are likely to suffer from stalls because of the CPU load
for memtable flushes and (L0,L1) compaction. Level 0 is special as it
gets frequent memtable flushes. Level 1 is special as it frequently
gets all:all file compactions between it and level 0. But all other levels
could be the same. For any level N where N > 1, the rate of sequential
IO for that level should be the same. The last level is the
exception because it might not be full and because files from it are
not read to compact with the next larger level.
The same amount of time will be spent doing compaction at any
level N excluding N=0, 1 or the last level. By this standard all
of those levels should use the same compression. The difference is that
the loss (using more disk space) from a faster compression algorithm
is less significant for N=2 than for N=3. So we might be willing to
trade disk space for faster write rates with no compression
for L0 and L1, snappy for L2, zlib for L3. Using a faster compression
algorithm for the mid levels also allows us to reclaim some cpu
without trading off much loss in disk space overhead.
Also note that little is to be gained by compressing levels 0 and 1. For
a 4-level tree they account for 10% of the data. For a 5-level tree they
account for 1% of the data.
With compression enabled:
* memtable flush rate is ~18MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~30MB/second
With compression enabled but min_level_to_compress=2
* memtable flush rate is ~320MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~560MB/second
This practicaly takes the same code from https://reviews.facebook.net/D6225
