Summary:
Bloom filters generated by pre-7.0 releases are not read by
7.0.x releases (and vice-versa) due to changes to FilterPolicy::Name()
in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9590. This can severely impact read performance and read I/O on
upgrade or downgrade with existing DB, but not data correctness.
To fix, we go back using the old, unified name in SST metadata but (for
a while anyway) recognize the aliases that could be generated by early
7.0.x releases. This unfortunately requires a public API change to avoid
interfering with all the good changes from https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9590, but the API change
only affects users with custom FilterPolicy, which should be very few.

Test Plan:
manual
Generate DBs with
```
./db_bench.7.0 -db=/dev/shm/rocksdb.7.0 -bloom_bits=10 -cache_index_and_filter_blocks=1 -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=10000000 -compaction_style=2 -fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=10000 -fifo_compaction_allow_compaction=0
```
and similar. Compare with
```
for IMPL in 6.29 7.0 fixed; do for DB in 6.29 7.0 fixed; do echo "Testing $IMPL on $DB:"; ./db_bench.$IMPL -db=/dev/shm/rocksdb.$DB -use_existing_db -readonly -bloom_bits=10 -benchmarks=readrandom -num=10000000 -compaction_style=2 -fifo_compaction_max_table_files_size_mb=10000 -fifo_compaction_allow_compaction=0 -duration=10 2>&1 | grep micros/op; done; done
```

Testing fixed on fixed:
readrandom : 28.714 micros/op 34825 ops/sec; 3.9 MB/s (348999 of 348999 found)
```
Just paying attention to order of magnitude of ops/sec (short test
durations, lots of noise), it's clear that with the fix we can read <= 6.29
& >= 7.0 at full speed, where neither 6.29 nor 7.0 can on both. And 6.29
release can properly read fixed DB at full speed.
