Summary:
This header file was including everything and the kitchen sink when it did not need to. This resulted in many places including this header when they needed other pieces instead.
Cleaned up this header to only include what was needed and fixed up the remaining code to include what was now missing.
Hopefully, this sort of code hygiene cleanup will speed up the builds...

This is the next part of the ImmutableOptions cleanup. After changing the use of ImmutableCFOptions to ImmutableOptions, there were places in the code that had did something like "ImmutableOptions* immutable_cf_options", where "cf" referred to the "old" type.
This change simply renames the variables to match the current type. No new functionality is introduced.

Summary:
The ImmutableCFOptions contained a bunch of fields that belonged to the ImmutableDBOptions. This change cleans that up by introducing an ImmutableOptions struct. Following the pattern of Options struct, this class inherits from the DB and CFOption structs (of the Immutable form).
Only one structural change (the ImmutableCFOptions::fs was changed to a shared_ptr from a raw one) is in this PR. All of the other changes involve moving the member variables from the ImmutableCFOptions into the ImmutableOptions and changing member variables or function parameters as required for compilation purposes.
Follow-on PRs may do a further clean-up of the code, such as renaming variables (such as "ImmutableOptions cf_options") and potentially eliminating un-needed function parameters (there is no longer a need to pass both an ImmutableDBOptions and an ImmutableOptions to a function).

Summary:
The patch adds iterator support to the integrated BlobDB implementation.
Whenever a blob reference is encountered during iteration, the corresponding
blob is retrieved by calling `Version::GetBlob`, assuming the `expose_blob_index`
(formerly `allow_blob`) flag is *not* set. (Note: the flag is set by the old stacked
BlobDB implementation, which has its own blob file handling/blob retrieval logic.)
In addition, `DBIter` now uniformly returns `Status::NotSupported` with the error
message `"BlobDB does not support merge operator."` when encountering a
blob reference while performing a merge (instead of potentially returning a
message that implies the database should be opened using the stacked BlobDB's
`Open`.)
TODO: We can implement support for lazily retrieving the blob value (or in other
words, bypassing the retrieval of blob values based on key) by extending the `Iterator`
API with a new `PrepareValue` method (similarly to `InternalIterator`, which already
supports lazy values).

Summary:
Previously, a `ReadOptions` object was stored in every `BlockBasedTableIterator`
and every `LevelIterator`. This redundancy consumes extra memory,
resulting in the `Arena` making more allocations, and iteration
observing worse cache performance.
This PR migrates callers of `NewInternalIterator()` and
`MakeInputIterator()` to provide a `ReadOptions` object guaranteed to
outlive the returned iterator. When the iterator's lifetime will be managed by the
user, this lifetime guarantee is achieved by storing the `ReadOptions`
value in `ArenaWrappedDBIter`. Then, sub-iterators of `NewInternalIterator()` and
`MakeInputIterator()` can hold a reference-to-const `ReadOptions`.

Summary:
Given that index value is a BlockHandle, which is basically an <offset, size> pair we can apply delta encoding on the values. The first value at each index restart interval encoded the full BlockHandle but the rest encode only the size. Refer to IndexBlockIter::DecodeCurrentValue for the detail of the encoding. This reduces the index size which helps using the block cache more efficiently. The feature is enabled with using format_version 4.
The feature comes with a bit of cpu overhead which should be paid back by the higher cache hits due to smaller index block size.

Summary:
Add kTypeBlobIndex value type, which will be used by blob db only, to insert a (key, blob_offset) KV pair. The purpose is to
1. Make it possible to open existing rocksdb instance as blob db. Existing value will be of kTypeIndex type, while value inserted by blob db will be of kTypeBlobIndex.
2. Make rocksdb able to detect if the db contains value written by blob db, if so return error.
3. Make it possible to have blob db optionally store value in SST file (with kTypeValue type) or as a blob value (with kTypeBlobIndex type).
The root db (DBImpl) basically pretended kTypeBlobIndex are normal value on write. On Get if is_blob is provided, return whether the value read is of kTypeBlobIndex type, or return Status::NotSupported() status if is_blob is not provided. On scan allow_blob flag is pass and if the flag is true, return wether the value is of kTypeBlobIndex type via iter->IsBlob().
Changes on blob db side will be in a separate patch.

DBIter, and in-turn NewDBIterator and NewArenaWrappedDBIterator, take a bunch of params. They can be reduced by passing in ReadOptions directly instead of passing in every new param separately. It also seems much cleaner as a bunch of the params towards the end seem to be optional.

Summary:
Operations like Seek/Next/Prev sometimes take too long to complete when there are many internal keys to be skipped. Adding an option, max_skippable_internal_keys -- which could be used to set a threshold for the maximum number of keys that can be skipped, will help to address these cases where it is much better to fail a request (as incomplete) than to wait for a considerable time for the request to complete.
This feature -- to fail an iterator seek request as incomplete, is disabled by default when max_skippable_internal_keys = 0. It is enabled only when max_skippable_internal_keys > 0.
This feature is based on the discussion mentioned in the PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/1084.

Summary:
1) The previous solution for Prev() prefix support is not clean.
Since I add api SeekForPrev(), now the Prev() can be symmetric to Next().
and we do not need SeekToLast() to be called in Prev() any more.
Also, Next() will Seek(prefix_seek_key_) to solve the problem of possible inconsistency between db_iter and merge_iter when
there is merge_operator. And prefix_seek_key is only refreshed when change direction to forward.
2) This diff also solves the bug of Iterator::SeekToLast() with iterate_upper_bound_ with prefix extractor.
add test cases for the above two cases.
There are some tests for the SeekToLast() in Prev(), I will clean them later.

3. MergeIteratorBuilder is created to incrementally build the tree of internal iterators. It is passed to mem table list and version set and add iterators to it.
Limitations:
(1) Only DB::NewIterator() without tailing uses the arena. Other cases, including readonly DB and compactions are still from malloc

include/leveldb/options.h
include/leveldb/write_batch.h
Please go over local/my_test.cc carefully, as it is a concerete use case.
Please also review the impelmentation files to see if the straw man implementation makes sense.
Note that, the diff does pass all make check and truly supports forward iterator over db and a version
of Get that's based on iterator.
Future work:
- Integration with compaction
- A raw Get implementation
I am working on a wiki that explains the design and implementation choices, but coding comes
