Summary:
The old flag-based APIs (`BlockBasedTableOptions::pin_l0_filter_and_index_blocks_in_cache` and `BlockBasedTableOptions::pin_top_level_index_and_filter`) were insufficient for our needs. For example, it was impossible to pin only unpartitioned meta-blocks, which could prevent block cache contention when turning on dictionary compression or during a migration to partitioned indexes/filters. It was also impossible to pin all meta-blocks in memory while having predictable memory usage via block cache. If we had continued adding flags to address these scenarios, they would have had significant overlap causing confusion. Instead, this PR deprecates the flags and starts a new API with non-overlapping options.

Test Plan:
- new unit test
- added new options to stress/crash test and ran for a while: `$ python tools/db_crashtest.py blackbox --simple --max_key=1000000 -write_buffer_size=1048576 -target_file_size_base=1048576 -max_bytes_for_level_base=4194304 --interval=10 -value_size_mult=33 -column_families=1 -reopen=0`
