Summary:
Made SystemClock into a Customizable class, complete with CreateFromString.
Cleaned up some of the existing SystemClock implementations that were redundant (NoSleep was the same as the internal one for MockEnv).
Changed MockEnv construction to allow Clock to be passed to the Memory/MockFileSystem.

Summary:
Currently, we either use the file system inode or a monotonically incrementing runtime ID as the block cache key prefix. However, if we use a monotonically incrementing runtime ID (in the case that the file system does not support inode id generation), in some cases, it cannot ensure uniqueness (e.g., we have secondary cache migrated from host to host). We use DbSessionID (20 bytes) + current file number (at most 10 bytes) as the new cache block key prefix when the secondary cache is enabled. So can accommodate scenarios such as transfer of cache state across hosts.

This PR is a first step at attempting to clean up some of the Mutable/Immutable Options code. With this change, a DBOption and a ColumnFamilyOption can be reconstructed from their Mutable and Immutable equivalents, respectively.
readrandom tests do not show any performance degradation versus master (though both are slightly slower than the current 6.19 release).
There are still fields in the ImmutableCFOptions that are not CF options but DB options. Eventually, I would like to move those into an ImmutableOptions (= ImmutableDBOptions+ImmutableCFOptions). But that will be part of a future PR to minimize changes and disruptions.

Summary:
For performance purposes, the lower level routines were changed to use a SystemClock* instead of a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock>. The shared ptr has some performance degradation on certain hardware classes.
For most of the system, there is no risk of the pointer being deleted/invalid because the shared_ptr will be stored elsewhere. For example, the ImmutableDBOptions stores the Env which has a std::shared_ptr<SystemClock> in it. The SystemClock* within the ImmutableDBOptions is essentially a "short cut" to gain access to this constant resource.
There were a few classes (PeriodicWorkScheduler?) where the "short cut" property did not hold. In those cases, the shared pointer was preserved.
Using db_bench readrandom perf_level=3 on my EC2 box, this change performed as well or better than 6.17:
6.17: readrandom : 28.046 micros/op 854902 ops/sec; 61.3 MB/s (355999 of 355999 found)

Summary:
This PR does the following:
-> Creates a WinFileSystem class. This class is the Windows equivalent of the PosixFileSystem and will be used on Windows systems.
-> Introduces a CustomEnv class. A CustomEnv is an Env that takes a FileSystem as constructor argument. I believe there will only ever be two implementations of this class (PosixEnv and WinEnv). There is still a CustomEnvWrapper class that takes an Env and a FileSystem and wraps the Env calls with the input Env but uses the FileSystem for the FileSystem calls
-> Eliminates the public uses of the LegacyFileSystemWrapper.
With this change in place, there are effectively the following patterns of Env:
- "Base Env classes" (PosixEnv, WinEnv). These classes implement the core Env functions (e.g. Threads) and have a hard-coded input FileSystem. These classes inherit from CompositeEnv, implement the core Env functions (threads) and delegate the FileSystem-like calls to the input file system.
- Wrapped Composite Env classes (MemEnv). These classes take in an Env and a FileSystem. The core env functions are re-directed to the wrapped env. The file system calls are redirected to the input file system
- Legacy Wrapped Env classes. These classes take in an Env input (but no FileSystem). The core env functions are re-directed to the wrapped env. A "Legacy File System" is created using this env and the file system calls directed to the env itself.
With these changes in place, the PosixEnv becomes a singleton -- there is only ever one created. Any other use of the PosixEnv is via another wrapped env. This cleans up some of the issues with the env construction and destruction.
Additionally, there were places in the code that required had an Env when they required a FileSystem. Many of these places would wrap the Env with a LegacyFileSystemWrapper instead of using the env->GetFileSystem(). These places were changed, thereby removing layers of additional redirection (LegacyFileSystem --> Env --> Env::FileSystem).

Summary:
The current Env API encompasses both storage/file operations, as well as OS related operations. Most of the APIs return a Status, which does not have enough metadata about an error, such as whether its retry-able or not, scope (i.e fault domain) of the error etc., that may be required in order to properly handle a storage error. The file APIs also do not provide enough control over the IO SLA, such as timeout, prioritization, hinting about placement and redundancy etc.
This PR separates out the file/storage APIs from Env into a new FileSystem class. The APIs are updated to return an IOStatus with metadata about the error, as well as to take an IOOptions structure as input in order to allow more control over the IO.
The user can set both ```options.env``` and ```options.file_system``` to specify that RocksDB should use the former for OS related operations and the latter for storage operations. Internally, a ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` has been introduced that inherits from ```Env``` and redirects individual methods to either an ```Env``` implementation or the ```FileSystem``` as appropriate. When options are sanitized during ```DB::Open```, ```options.env``` is replaced with a newly allocated ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` instance if both env and file_system have been specified. This way, the rest of the RocksDB code can continue to function as before.
This PR also ports PosixEnv to the new API by splitting it into two - PosixEnv and PosixFileSystem. PosixEnv is defined as a sub-class of CompositeEnvWrapper, and threading/time functions are overridden with Posix specific implementations in order to avoid an extra level of indirection.
The ```CompositeEnvWrapper``` translates ```IOStatus``` return code to ```Status```, and sets the severity to ```kSoftError``` if the io_status is retryable. The error handling code in RocksDB can then recover the DB automatically.

Summary:
Throughput: 46k tps in our sysbench settings (filling the details later)
The idea is to have the simplest change that gives us a reasonable boost
in 2PC throughput.
Major design changes:
1. The WAL file internal buffer is not flushed after each write. Instead
it is flushed before critical operations (WAL copy via fs) or when
FlushWAL is called by MySQL. Flushing the WAL buffer is also protected
via mutex_.
2. Use two sequence numbers: last seq, and last seq for write. Last seq
is the last visible sequence number for reads. Last seq for write is the
next sequence number that should be used to write to WAL/memtable. This
allows to have a memtable write be in parallel to WAL writes.
3. BatchGroup is not used for writes. This means that we can have
parallel writers which changes a major assumption in the code base. To
accommodate for that i) allow only 1 WriteImpl that intends to write to
memtable via mem_mutex_--which is fine since in 2PC almost all of the memtable writes
come via group commit phase which is serial anyway, ii) make all the
parts in the code base that assumed to be the only writer (via
EnterUnbatched) to also acquire mem_mutex_, iii) stat updates are
protected via a stat_mutex_.
Note: the first commit has the approach figured out but is not clean.
Submitting the PR anyway to get the early feedback on the approach. If
we are ok with the approach I will go ahead with this updates:
0) Rebase with Yi's pipelining changes
1) Currently batching is disabled by default to make sure that it will be
consistent with all unit tests. Will make this optional via a config.
2) A couple of unit tests are disabled. They need to be updated with the
serial commit of 2PC taken into account.
3) Replacing BatchGroup with mem_mutex_ got a bit ugly as it requires
releasing mutex_ beforehand (the same way EnterUnbatched does). This
needs to be cleaned up.

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.
