Summary: Adds three new WriteBatch data types: Prepare(xid), Commit(xid), Rollback(xid). Prepare(xid) should precede the (single) operation to which is applies. There can obviously be multiple Prepare(xid) markers. There should only be one Rollback(xid) or Commit(xid) marker yet not both. None of this logic is currently enforced and will most likely be implemented further up such as in the memtableinserter. All three markers are similar to PutLogData in that they are writebatch meta-data, ie stored but not counted. All three markers differ from PutLogData in that they will actually be written to disk. As for WriteBatchWithIndex, Prepare, Commit, Rollback are all implemented just as PutLogData and none are tested just as PutLogData.
Test Plan: single unit test in write_batch_test.

Summary:
This diff adds support for concurrent adds to the skiplist memtable
implementations. Memory allocation is made thread-safe by the addition of
a spinlock, with small per-core buffers to avoid contention. Concurrent
memtable writes are made via an additional method and don't impose a
performance overhead on the non-concurrent case, so parallelism can be
selected on a per-batch basis.
Write thread synchronization is an increasing bottleneck for higher levels
of concurrency, so this diff adds --enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield
(default off). This feature causes threads joining a write batch
group to spin for a short time (default 100 usec) using sched_yield,
rather than going to sleep on a mutex. If the timing of the yield calls
indicates that another thread has actually run during the yield then
spinning is avoided. This option improves performance for concurrent
situations even without parallel adds, although it has the potential to
increase CPU usage (and the heuristic adaptation is not yet mature).
Parallel writes are not currently compatible with
inplace updates, update callbacks, or delete filtering.
Enable it with --allow_concurrent_memtable_write (and
--enable_write_thread_adaptive_yield). Parallel memtable writes
are performance neutral when there is no actual parallelism, and in
my experiments (SSD server-class Linux and varying contention and key
sizes for fillrandom) they are always a performance win when there is
more than one thread.
Statistics are updated earlier in the write path, dropping the number
of DB mutex acquisitions from 2 to 1 for almost all cases.
This diff was motivated and inspired by Yahoo's cLSM work. It is more
conservative than cLSM: RocksDB's write batch group leader role is
preserved (along with all of the existing flush and write throttling
logic) and concurrent writers are blocked until all memtable insertions
have completed and the sequence number has been advanced, to preserve
linearizability.
My test config is "db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -threads=$T
-batch_size=1 -memtablerep=skip_list -value_size=100 --num=1000000/$T
-level0_slowdown_writes_trigger=9999 -level0_stop_writes_trigger=9999
-disable_auto_compactions --max_write_buffer_number=8
-max_background_flushes=8 --disable_wal --write_buffer_size=160000000
--block_size=16384 --allow_concurrent_memtable_write" on a two-socket
Xeon E5-2660 @ 2.2Ghz with lots of memory and an SSD hard drive. With 1
thread I get ~440Kops/sec. Peak performance for 1 socket (numactl
-N1) is slightly more than 1Mops/sec, at 16 threads. Peak performance
across both sockets happens at 30 threads, and is ~900Kops/sec, although
with fewer threads there is less performance loss when the system has
background work.

Parallel writes will only be possible for certain combinations of
flags and WriteBatch contents. Traversing the WriteBatch at write time
to check these conditions would be expensive, but it is very cheap to

during recovery, a deferred computation state is used so that the flags
never need to be computed.

Summary:
This patch fixes#7460559. It introduces SingleDelete as a new database
operation. This operation can be used to delete keys that were never
overwritten (no put following another put of the same key). If an overwritten
key is single deleted the behavior is undefined. Single deletion of a
non-existent key has no effect but multiple consecutive single deletions are
not allowed (see limitations).
In contrast to the conventional Delete() operation, the deletion entry is
removed along with the value when the two are lined up in a compaction. Note:
The semantics are similar to @igor's prototype that allowed to have this
behavior on the granularity of a column family (
https://reviews.facebook.net/D42093 ). This new patch, however, is more
aggressive when it comes to removing tombstones: It removes the SingleDelete
together with the value whenever there is no snapshot between them while the
older patch only did this when the sequence number of the deletion was older
than the earliest snapshot.
Most of the complex additions are in the Compaction Iterator, all other changes
should be relatively straightforward. The patch also includes basic support for
single deletions in db_stress and db_bench.
Limitations:
- Not compatible with cuckoo hash tables
- Single deletions cannot be used in combination with merges and normal
deletions on the same key (other keys are not affected by this)
- Consecutive single deletions are currently not allowed (and older version of
this patch supported this so it could be resurrected if needed)

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.

Summary:
gtest does not use exceptions to fail a unit test by design, and `ASSERT*`s are implemented using `return`. As a consequence we cannot use `ASSERT*` in a function that does not return `void` value ([[ https://code.google.com/p/googletest/wiki/AdvancedGuide#Assertion_Placement | 1]]), and have to fix our existing code. This diff does this in a generic way, with no manual changes.
In order to detect all existing `ASSERT*` that are used in functions that doesn't return void value, I change the code to generate compile errors for such cases.
In `util/testharness.h` I defined `EXPECT*` assertions, the same way as `ASSERT*`, and redefined `ASSERT*` to return `void`. Then executed:
```lang=bash
% USE_CLANG=1 make all -j55 -k 2> build.log
% perl -naF: -e 'print "-- -number=".$F[1]." ".$F[0]."\n" if /: error:/' \
build.log | xargs -L 1 perl -spi -e 's/ASSERT/EXPECT/g if $. == $number'
% make format
```
After that I reverted back change to `ASSERT*` in `util/testharness.h`. But preserved introduced `EXPECT*`, which is the same as `ASSERT*`. This will be deleted once switched to gtest.
This diff is independent and contains manual changes only in `util/testharness.h`.
Test Plan:
Make sure all tests are passing.

1. Key already exists in the current memtable. Does not inplace update values in immutable memtable or snapshot
2. Latest value type is a 'put' ie kTypeValue
3. New value size is less than existing value, to avoid reallocating memory
TODO: For a put of an existing key, deallocate memory take by values, for other value types till a kTypeValue is found, ie. remove kTypeMerge.
TODO: Update the transaction log, to allow consistent reload of the memtable.

Summary:
This patch adds three new MemTableRep's: UnsortedRep, PrefixHashRep, and VectorRep.
UnsortedRep stores keys in an std::unordered_map of std::sets. When an iterator is requested, it dumps the keys into an std::set and iterates over that.
VectorRep stores keys in an std::vector. When an iterator is requested, it creates a copy of the vector and sorts it using std::sort. The iterator accesses that new vector.
PrefixHashRep stores keys in an unordered_map mapping prefixes to ordered sets.
I also added one API change. I added a function MemTableRep::MarkImmutable. This function is called when the rep is added to the immutable list. It doesn't do anything yet, but it seems like that could be useful. In particular, for the vectorrep, it means we could elide the extra copy and just sort in place. The only reason I haven't done that yet is because the use of the ArenaAllocator complicates things (I can elaborate on this if needed).
