Cheng Chang 40497a875a Reduce memory copies when fetching and uncompressing blocks from SST files (#6689)
Summary:
In https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6455, we modified the interface of `RandomAccessFileReader::Read` to be able to get rid of memcpy in direct IO mode.
This PR applies the new interface to `BlockFetcher` when reading blocks from SST files in direct IO mode.

Without this PR, in direct IO mode, when fetching and uncompressing compressed blocks, `BlockFetcher` will first copy the raw compressed block into `BlockFetcher::compressed_buf_` or `BlockFetcher::stack_buf_` inside `RandomAccessFileReader::Read` depending on the block size. then during uncompressing, it will copy the uncompressed block into `BlockFetcher::heap_buf_`.

In this PR, we get rid of the first memcpy and directly uncompress the block from `direct_io_buf_` to `heap_buf_`.
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/6689

Test Plan: A new unit test `block_fetcher_test` is added.
