Summary:
MyRocks currently sets `max_write_buffer_number_to_maintain` in order to maintain enough history for transaction conflict checking. The effectiveness of this approach depends on the size of memtables. When memtables are small, it may not keep enough history; when memtables are large, this may consume too much memory.
We are proposing a new way to configure memtable list history: by limiting the memory usage of immutable memtables. The new option is `max_write_buffer_size_to_maintain` and it will take precedence over the old `max_write_buffer_number_to_maintain` if they are both set to non-zero values. The new option accounts for the total memory usage of flushed immutable memtables and mutable memtable. When the total usage exceeds the limit, RocksDB may start dropping immutable memtables (which is also called trimming history), starting from the oldest one.
The semantics of the old option actually works both as an upper bound and lower bound. History trimming will start if number of immutable memtables exceeds the limit, but it will never go below (limit-1) due to history trimming.
In order the mimic the behavior with the new option, history trimming will stop if dropping the next immutable memtable causes the total memory usage go below the size limit. For example, assuming the size limit is set to 64MB, and there are 3 immutable memtables with sizes of 20, 30, 30. Although the total memory usage is 80MB > 64MB, dropping the oldest memtable will reduce the memory usage to 60MB < 64MB, so in this case no memtable will be dropped.

Summary:
The ObjectRegistry class replaces the Registrar and NewCustomObjects. Objects are registered with the registry by Type (the class must implement the static const char *Type() method).
This change is necessary for a few reasons:
- By having a class (rather than static template instances), the class can be passed between compilation units, meaning that objects could be registered and shared from a dynamic library with an executable.
- By having a class with instances, different units could have different objects registered. This could be useful if, for example, one Option allowed for a dynamic library and one did not.
When combined with some other PRs (being able to load shared libraries, a Configurable interface to configure objects to/from string), this code will allow objects in external shared libraries to be added to a RocksDB image at run-time, rather than requiring every new extension to be built into the main library and called explicitly by every program.

Summary:
This PR continues the work in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/4748 and https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/4535 by adding a new DBOption `persist_stats_to_disk` which instructs RocksDB to persist stats history to RocksDB itself. When statistics is enabled, and both options `stats_persist_period_sec` and `persist_stats_to_disk` are set, RocksDB will periodically write stats to a built-in column family in the following form: key -> (timestamp in microseconds)#(stats name), value -> stats value. The existing API `GetStatsHistory` will detect the current value of `persist_stats_to_disk` and either read from in-memory data structure or from the hidden column family on disk.

Summary:
Part of compaction cpu goes to processing snapshot list, the larger the list the bigger the overhead. Although the lifetime of most of the snapshots is much shorter than the lifetime of compactions, the compaction conservatively operates on the list of snapshots that it initially obtained. This patch allows the snapshot list to be updated via a callback if the compaction is taking long. This should let the compaction to continue more efficiently with much smaller snapshot list.
For simplicity, to avoid the feature is disabled in two cases: i) When more than one sub-compaction are sharing the same snapshot list, ii) when Range Delete is used in which the range delete aggregator has its own copy of snapshot list.
This fixes the reverted https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/5099 issue with range deletes.

Summary:
- By providing the "env" field in any text-based options (i.e., string, map, or file), we can use `NewCustomObject` to deserialize the text value into an actual `Env` object.
- Currently factory functions for `Env` registered with object registry should only return pointer to static `Env` objects. That's because `DBOptions::env` is a raw pointer so we cannot easily delegate cleanup.
- Note I did not add `env` to `db_option_type_info`. It wasn't needed for (de)serialization, and I believe we don't want to do verification on `env`, even by checking name. That's because the user should be able to copy their DB from Linux to Windows, change envs, and not see an option verification error.

Summary:
The existing implementation does not guarantee bytes reach disk every `bytes_per_sync` when writing SST files, or every `wal_bytes_per_sync` when writing WALs. This can cause confusing behavior for users who enable this feature to avoid large syncs during flush and compaction, but then end up hitting them anyways.
My understanding of the existing behavior is we used `sync_file_range` with `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE` to submit ranges for async writeback, such that we could continue processing the next range of bytes while that I/O is happening. I believe we can preserve that benefit while also limiting how far the processing can get ahead of the I/O, which prevents huge syncs from happening when the file finishes.
Consider this `sync_file_range` usage: `sync_file_range(fd_, 0, static_cast<off_t>(offset + nbytes), SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE | SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE)`. Expanding the range to start at 0 and adding the `SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE` flag causes any pending writeback (like from a previous call to `sync_file_range`) to finish before it proceeds to submit the latest `nbytes` for writeback. The latest `nbytes` are still written back asynchronously, unless processing exceeds I/O speed, in which case the following `sync_file_range` will need to wait on it.
There is a second change in this PR to use `fdatasync` when `sync_file_range` is unavailable (determined statically) or has some known problem with the underlying filesystem (determined dynamically).
The above two changes only apply when the user enables a new option, `strict_bytes_per_sync`.

Summary:
This PR adds public `GetStatsHistory` API to retrieve stats history in the form of an std map. The key of the map is the timestamp in microseconds when the stats snapshot is taken, the value is another std map from stats name to stats value (stored in std string). Two DBOptions are introduced: `stats_persist_period_sec` (default 10 minutes) controls the intervals between two snapshots are taken; `max_stats_history_count` (default 10) controls the max number of history snapshots to keep in memory. RocksDB will stop collecting stats snapshots if `stats_persist_period_sec` is set to 0.

Problem: Option string accepts only cache_size as parameter for block_cache which is specified as "block_cache=1M".
It doesn't accept other parameters like num_shards etc.
Changes :
1) ParseBlockBasedTableOption in block_based_table_factory is edited to accept cache options in the format "block_cache=<cache_size>:<num_shard_bits>:<strict_capacity_limit>:<high_pri_pool_ratio>".
Options other than cache_size are optional to maintain backward compatibility. The changes are valid for block_cache_compressed as well.
For example, "block_cache=1M:6:true:0.5", "block_cache=1M:6:true", "block_cache=1M:6" and "block_cache=1M" are all valid option strings.

Also added `--ignore_unknown_options` flag to ldb
**Example Use case:**
In MyRocks, if copying from newer version to older version, it is often impossible to start because of new RocksDB options that don't exist in older version, even though data format is compatible.
MyRocks uses these load and verify functions in [ha_rocksdb.cc::check_rocksdb_options_compatibility](e004fd9f41/storage/rocksdb/ha_rocksdb.cc (L3348-L3401)).
**Test Plan:**

Now edit /tmp/test_db/<OPTIONS-file> and add an unknown option.
