Summary:
Currently, ThreadStatusFlush uses two sync-points to ensure
there's a flush currently running when calling GetThreadList().
However, one of the sync-point is inside db-mutex, which could
cause deadlock in case there's a DB::Get() call.
This patch fix this issue by moving the sync-point to a better
place where the flush job does not hold the mutex.

Summary:
In D43239 (https://reviews.facebook.net/D43239) there is an
assertion to make sure a subcompaction's output is never empty at the
end of execution. This assertion however breaks the build because some
tests lead to exactly that scenario. So instead I have altered the logic
to handle this case instead of just failing the assertion.
The reason that it is possible for a subcompaction's output to be empty is
that during a sequential execution of subcompactions, if a user aborts the
compaction job then some of the later subcompactions to be executed may
have yet to process any keys and therefore have yet to generate output files.
This becomes very rare once the subcompactions are executed in parallel,
but for now they are still sequential so the case is possible when there is an
early termination, as in some of the tests.

uses this state to update its statistics, keep track of its snapshots, etc.
during the course of execution. Then at the end of all the executions the

While working on supporting mixing merge operators with
single deletes ( https://reviews.facebook.net/D43179 ),
I realized that returning and dealing with merge results
can be made simpler. Submitting this as a separate diff
because it is not directly related to single deletes.
Before, callers of merge helper had to retrieve the merge
result in one of two ways depending on whether the merge
was successful or not (success = result of merge was single
kTypeValue). For successful merges, the caller could query
the resulting key/value pair and for unsuccessful merges,
the result could be retrieved in the form of two deques of
keys and values. However, with single deletes, a successful merge
does not return a single key/value pair (if merge
operands are merged with a single delete, we have to generate
a value and keep the original single delete around to make
sure that we are not accidentially producing a key overwrite).
In addition, the two existing call sites of the merge
helper were taking the same actions independently from whether
the merge was successful or not, so this patch simplifies that.

Summary:
This diff allows a Writer to join the next write batch group
without acquiring any locks. Waiting is performed via a per-Writer mutex,
so all of the non-leader writers never need to acquire the db mutex.
It is now possible to join a write batch group after the leader has been
chosen but before the batch has been constructed. This diff doesn't
increase parallelism, but reduces synchronization overheads.
For some CPU-bound workloads (no WAL, RAM-sized working set) this can
substantially reduce contention on the db mutex in a multi-threaded
environment. With T=8 N=500000 in a CPU-bound scenario (see the test
plan) this is good for a 33% perf win. Not all scenarios see such a
win, but none show a loss. This code is slightly faster even for the
single-threaded case (about 2% for the CPU-bound scenario below).

Summary:
Key comparison is the single largest CPU user for CPU-bound
workloads. This diff reduces the number of comparisons in two ways.
The first is that it moves predecessor array gathering from
FindGreaterOrEqual to FindLessThan, so that FindGreaterOrEqual can
return immediately if compare_ returns 0. As part of this change I
moved the sequential insertion optimization into Insert, to remove the
undocumented (and smelly) requirement that prev must be equal to prev_
if it is non-null.
The second optimization is that all of the search functions skip calling
compare_ when moving to a lower level that has the same Next pointer.
With a branching factor of 4 we would expect this to happen 1/4 of
the time.
On a single-threaded CPU-bound workload (-benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=1
-batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=0 --num=1600000
-level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999

Summary:
The compact files API had a bug where some overlapping files
are not added. These are files which overlap with files which were
added to the compaction input files, but not to the original set of
input files. This happens only when there are more than two levels
involved in the compaction. An example will illustrate this better.
Level 2 has 1 input file 1.sst which spans [20,30].
Level 3 has added file 2.sst which spans [10,25]
Level 4 has file 3.sst which spans [35,40] and
input file 4.sst which spans [46,50].
The existing code would not add 3.sst to the set of input_files because
it only becomes an overlapping file in level 4 and it wasn't one in
level 3.
When installing the results of the compaction, 3.sst would overlap with
output file from the compact files and result in the assertion in
version_set.cc:1130
// Must not overlap
assert(level <= 0 || level_files->empty() ||
internal_comparator_->Compare(
(*level_files)[level_files->size() - 1]->largest, f->smallest) <
0);
This change now adds overlapping files from the current level to the set
of input files also so that we don't hit the assertion above.

Summary:
As of now compactions involving files from Level 0 and Level 1 are single
threaded because the files in L0, although sorted, are not range partitioned like
the other levels. This means that during L0-L1 compaction each file from L1
needs to be merged with potentially all the files from L0.
This attempt to parallelize the L0-L1 compaction assigns a thread and a
corresponding iterator to each L1 file that then considers only the key range
found in that L1 file and only the L0 files that have those keys (and only the
specific portion of those L0 files in which those keys are found). In this way
the overlap is minimized and potentially eliminated between different iterators
focusing on the same files.
The first step is to restructure the compaction logic to break L0-L1 compactions
into multiple, smaller, sequential compactions. Eventually each of these smaller
jobs will be run simultaneously. Areas to pay extra attention to are
# Correct aggregation of compaction job statistics across multiple threads
# Proper opening/closing of output files (make sure each thread's is unique)
# Keys that span multiple L1 files
# Skewed distributions of keys within L0 files
