Summary:
Context:
As need for new feature of resource management using RocksDB's rate limiter like [https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8595](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/8595) arises, it is about time to re-learn our rate limiter and make this learning process easier for others by improving its readability. The comment/assertion/one extra else-branch are added based on my best understanding toward the rate_limiter.cc and rate_limiter_test.cc up to date after giving it a hard read.
- Add code comments/assertion/one extra else-branch (that is not affecting existing behavior, see PR comment) to describe how leader-election works under multi-thread settings in GenericRateLimiter::Request()
- Add code comments to describe a non-obvious trick during clean-up of rate limiter destructor
- Add code comments to explain more about the starvation being fixed in GenericRateLimiter::Refill() through partial byte-granting
- Add code comments to the rate limiter's setup in a complicated unit test in rate_limiter_test

Test Plan: - passed existing rate_limiter_test.cc

Summary:
For performance purposes, the lower level routines were changed to use a SystemClock* instead of a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock>. The shared ptr has some performance degradation on certain hardware classes.
For most of the system, there is no risk of the pointer being deleted/invalid because the shared_ptr will be stored elsewhere. For example, the ImmutableDBOptions stores the Env which has a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock> in it. The SystemClock* within the ImmutableDBOptions is essentially a "short cut" to gain access to this constant resource.
There were a few classes (PeriodicWorkScheduler?) where the "short cut" property did not hold. In those cases, the shared pointer was preserved.
Using db_bench readrandom perf_level=3 on my EC2 box, this change performed as well or better than 6.17:
6.17: readrandom : 28.046 micros/op 854902 ops/sec; 61.3 MB/s (355999 of 355999 found)
6.18: readrandom : 32.615 micros/op 735306 ops/sec; 52.7 MB/s (290999 of 290999 found)
PR: readrandom : 27.500 micros/op 871909 ops/sec; 62.5 MB/s (367999 of 367999 found)
(Note that the times for 6.18 are prior to revert of the SystemClock).

Summary:
Introduces and uses a SystemClock class to RocksDB. This class contains the time-related functions of an Env and these functions can be redirected from the Env to the SystemClock.
Many of the places that used an Env (Timer, PerfStepTimer, RepeatableThread, RateLimiter, WriteController) for time-related functions have been changed to use SystemClock instead. There are likely more places that can be changed, but this is a start to show what can/should be done. Over time it would be nice to migrate most (if not all) of the uses of the time functions from the Env to the SystemClock.
There are several Env classes that implement these functions. Most of these have not been converted yet to SystemClock implementations; that will come in a subsequent PR. It would be good to unify many of the Mock Timer implementations, so that they behave similarly and be tested similarly (some override Sleep, some use a MockSleep, etc).
Additionally, this change will allow new methods to be introduced to the SystemClock (like https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/7101 WaitFor) in a consistent manner across a smaller number of classes.

Summary:
When dynamically linking two binaries together, different builds of RocksDB from two sources might cause errors. To provide a tool for user to solve the problem, the RocksDB namespace is changed to a flag which can be overridden in build time.

Test Plan: Build release, all and jtest. Try to build with ROCKSDB_NAMESPACE with another flag.

Summary:
Dynamic adjustment of rate limit according to demand for background I/O. It increases by a factor when limiter is drained too frequently, and decreases by the same factor when limiter is not drained frequently enough. The parameters for this behavior are fixed in `GenericRateLimiter::Tune`. Other changes:
- make rate limiter's `Env*` configurable for testing
- track num drain intervals in RateLimiter so we don't have to rely on stats, which may be shared across different DB instances from the ones that share the RateLimiter.

Allow users to rate limit background work based on read bytes, written bytes, or sum of read and written bytes. Support these by changing the RateLimiter API, so no additional options were needed.

Summary:
It's hard for RocksDB to come up with a good default of delayed write rate. Use rate given by rate limiter if it is availalbe. This provides the I/O order of magnitude.

Summary:
This is the metric I plan to use for adaptive rate limiting. The statistics are updated only if the rate limiter is drained by flush or compaction. I believe (but am not certain) that this is the normal case.
The Statistics object is passed in RateLimiter::Request() to avoid requiring changes to client code, which would've been necessary if we passed it in the RateLimiter constructor.

Summary:
NowMicros() provides non-monotonic time. When wall clock is
synchronized or changed, the non-monotonicity time points will affect write rate
controllers. This patch changes write_controller.cc and rate_limiter.cc to use
monotonic time points.
