Summary:
For transactions, we are using the memtables to validate that there are no write conflicts. But after flushing, we don't have any memtables, and transactions could fail to commit. So we want to someone keep around some extra history to use for conflict checking. In addition, we want to provide a way to increase the size of this history if too many transactions fail to commit.
After chatting with people, it seems like everyone prefers just using Memtables to store this history (instead of a separate history structure). It seems like the best place for this is abstracted inside the memtable_list. I decide to create a separate list in MemtableListVersion as using the same list complicated the flush/installalflushresults logic too much.
This diff adds a new parameter to control how much memtable history to keep around after flushing. However, it sounds like people aren't too fond of adding new parameters. So I am making the default size of flushed+not-flushed memtables be set to max_write_buffers. This should not change the maximum amount of memory used, but make it more likely we're using closer the the limit. (We are now postponing deleting flushed memtables until the max_write_buffer limit is reached). So while we might use more memory on average, we are still obeying the limit set (and you could argue it's better to go ahead and use up memory now instead of waiting for a write stall to happen to test this limit).
However, if people are opposed to this default behavior, we can easily set it to 0 and require this parameter be set in order to use transactions.
Test Plan: Added a xfunc test to play around with setting different values of this parameter in all tests. Added testing in memtablelist_test and planning on adding more testing here.

Summary:
sync_file_range is not always asyncronous and thus can block writes if we do this for WAL in the foreground thread. See more here: http://yoshinorimatsunobu.blogspot.com/2014/03/how-syncfilerange-really-works.html
Some users don't want us to call sync_file_range on WALs. Some other do.
Thus, I'm adding a separate option wal_bytes_per_sync to control calling
sync_file_range on WAL files. bytes_per_sync will apply only to table
files now.
Test Plan: no more sync_file_range for WAL as evidenced by strace

Summary:
Our existing test notation is very similar to what is used in gtest. It makes it easy to adopt what is different.
In this diff I modify existing [[ https://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/Primer#Test_Fixtures:_Using_the_Same_Data_Configuration_for_Multiple_Te | test fixture ]] classes to inherit from `testing::Test`. Also for unit tests that use fixture class, `TEST` is replaced with `TEST_F` as required in gtest.
There are several custom `main` functions in our existing tests. To make this transition easier, I modify all `main` functions to fallow gtest notation. But eventually we can remove them and use implementation of `main` that gtest provides.
```lang=bash
% cat ~/transform

Summary:
When having fixed max_bytes_for_level_base, the ratio of size of largest level and the second one can range from 0 to the multiplier. This makes LSM tree frequently irregular and unpredictable. It can also cause poor space amplification in some cases.
In this improvement (proposed by Igor Kabiljo), we introduce a parameter option.level_compaction_use_dynamic_max_bytes. When turning it on, RocksDB is free to pick a level base in the range of (options.max_bytes_for_level_base/options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier, options.max_bytes_for_level_base] so that real level ratios are close to options.max_bytes_for_level_multiplier.
Test Plan: New unit tests and pass tests suites including valgrind.

Summary:
Added a new option to ColumnFamllyOptions - optimize_filters_for_hits. This option can be used in the case where most
accesses to the store are key hits and we dont need to optimize performance for key misses.
This is useful when you have a very large database and most of your lookups succeed. The option allows the store to
not store and use filters in the last level (the largest level which contains data). These filters can take a large amount of
space for large databases (in memory and on-disk). For the last level, these filters are only useful for key misses and not
for key hits. If we are not optimizing for key misses, we can choose to not store these filters for that level.
This option is only provided for BlockBasedTable. We skip the filters when we are compacting
Test Plan:
1. Modified db_test toalso run tests with an additonal option (skip_filters_on_last_level)
2. Added another unit test to db_test which specifically tests that filters are being skipped

Summary:
Add a function GetOptions(), where based on four parameters users give: read/write amplification threshold, memory budget for mem tables and target DB size, it picks up a compaction style and parameters for them. Background threads are not touched yet.
One limit of this algorithm: since compression rate and key/value size are hard to predict, it's hard to predict level 0 file size from write buffer size. Simply make 1:1 ratio here.
