Summary:
Adding the `min_blob_size` option to allow storing small values in base db (in LSM tree) together with the key. The goal is to improve performance for small values, while taking advantage of blob db's low write amplification for large values.
Also adding expiration timestamp to blob index. It will be useful to evict stale blob indexes in base db by adding a compaction filter. I'll work on the compaction filter in future patches.
See blob_index.h for the new blob index format. There are 4 cases when writing a new key:
* small value w/o TTL: put in base db as normal value (i.e. ValueType::kTypeValue)
* small value w/ TTL: put (type, expiration, value) to base db.
* large value w/o TTL: write value to blob log and put (type, file, offset, size, compression) to base db.
* large value w/TTL: write value to blob log and put (type, expiration, file, offset, size, compression) to base db.
