Summary:
The first key is used to defer reading the data block until this file gets to the top of merging iterator's heap. For short range scans, most files never make it to the top of the heap, so this change can reduce read amplification by a lot sometimes.
Consider the following workload. There are a few data streams (we'll be calling them "logs"), each stream consisting of a sequence of blobs (we'll be calling them "records"). Each record is identified by log ID and a sequence number within the log. RocksDB key is concatenation of log ID and sequence number (big endian). Reads are mostly relatively short range scans, each within a single log. Writes are mostly sequential for each log, but writes to different logs are randomly interleaved. Compactions are disabled; instead, when we accumulate a few tens of sst files, we create a new column family and start writing to it.
So, a typical sst file consists of a few ranges of blocks, each range corresponding to one log ID (we use FlushBlockPolicy to cut blocks at log boundaries). A typical read would go like this. First, iterator Seek() reads one block from each sst file. Then a series of Next()s move through one sst file (since writes to each log are mostly sequential) until the subiterator reaches the end of this log in this sst file; then Next() switches to the next sst file and reads sequentially from that, and so on. Often a range scan will only return records from a small number of blocks in small number of sst files; in this case, the cost of initial Seek() reading one block from each file may be bigger than the cost of reading the actually useful blocks.
Neither iterate_upper_bound nor bloom filters can prevent reading one block from each file in Seek(). But this PR can: if the index contains first key from each block, we don't have to read the block until this block actually makes it to the top of merging iterator's heap, so for short range scans we won't read any blocks from most of the sst files.
This PR does the deferred block loading inside value() call. This is not ideal: there's no good way to report an IO error from inside value(). As discussed with siying offline, it would probably be better to change InternalIterator's interface to explicitly fetch deferred value and get status. I'll do it in a separate PR.

Summary:
This PR adds more callers for table readers. These information are only used for block cache analysis so that we can know which caller accesses a block.
1. It renames the BlockCacheLookupCaller to TableReaderCaller as passing the caller from upstream requires changes to table_reader.h and TableReaderCaller is a more appropriate name.
2. It adds more table reader callers in table/table_reader_caller.h, e.g., kCompactionRefill, kExternalSSTIngestion, and kBuildTable.
This PR is long as it requires modification of interfaces in table_reader.h, e.g., NewIterator.

Summary:
Currently the read-ahead logic for user reads and compaction reads go through different code paths where compaction reads create new table readers and use `ReadaheadRandomAccessFile`. This change is to unify read-ahead logic to use read-ahead in BlockBasedTableReader::InitDataBlock(). As a result of the change `ReadAheadRandomAccessFile` class and `new_table_reader_for_compaction_inputs` option will no longer be used.

Summary:
The patch brings the semantics of per-block-type read performance
context counters in sync with the generic block_read_count by only
incrementing the counter if the block was actually read from the file.
It also fixes index_block_read_count, which fell victim to the
refactoring in PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5298.

Summary:
PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5298 subtly changed how read options are applied to the index block
during a Get, MultiGet, or iteration. Earlier, only the read_tier option
applied to the index block read; since PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/5298, fill_cache and
verify_checksums also have an effect. This patch restores the earlier
behavior to prevent surprise memory increases for clients due to the
index block not being cached.

Summary:
BlockCacheLookupContext only contains the caller for now.
We will trace block accesses at five places:
1. BlockBasedTable::GetFilter.
2. BlockBasedTable::GetUncompressedDict.
3. BlockBasedTable::MaybeReadAndLoadToCache. (To trace access on data, index, and range deletion block.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Get. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
5. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (To trace the referenced key and whether the referenced key exists in a fetched data block.)
We create the context at:
1. BlockBasedTable::Get. (kUserGet)
2. BlockBasedTable::MultiGet. (kUserMGet)
3. BlockBasedTable::NewIterator. (either kUserIterator, kCompaction, or external SST ingestion calls this function.)
4. BlockBasedTable::Open. (kPrefetch)
5. Index/Filter::CacheDependencies. (kPrefetch)
6. BlockBasedTable::ApproximateOffsetOf. (kCompaction or kUserApproximateSize).
I loaded 1 million key-value pairs into the database and ran the readrandom benchmark with a single thread. I gave the block cache 10 GB to make sure all reads hit the block cache after warmup. The throughput is comparable.

Summary:
The patch cleans up the handling of cache hit/miss/insertion related
performance counters, get context counters, and statistics by
eliminating some code duplication and factoring out the affected logic
into separate methods. In addition, it makes the semantics of cache hit
metrics more consistent by changing the code so that accessing a
partition of partitioned indexes/filters through a pinned reference no
longer counts as a cache hit.

Summary:
It's useful to be able to (optionally) associate key-value pairs with user-provided timestamps. This PR is an early effort towards this goal and continues the work of facebook#4942. A suite of new unit tests exist in DBBasicTestWithTimestampWithParam. Support for timestamp requires the user to provide timestamp as a slice in `ReadOptions` and `WriteOptions`. All timestamps of the same database must share the same length, format, etc. The format of the timestamp is the same throughout the same database, and the user is responsible for providing a comparator function (Comparator) to order the <key, timestamp> tuples. Once created, the format and length of the timestamp cannot change (at least for now).
Test plan (on devserver):
```
$COMPILE_WITH_ASAN=1 make -j32 all
$./db_basic_test --gtest_filter=Timestamp/DBBasicTestWithTimestampWithParam.PutAndGet/*
$make check
```
All tests must pass.
We also run the following db_bench tests to verify whether there is regression on Get/Put while timestamp is not enabled.
```
$TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillseq,readrandom -num=1000000
$TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm ./db_bench -benchmarks=fillrandom -num=1000000
```
Repeat for 6 times for both versions.
Results are as follows:

Summary:
Many methods are passing around pointers to non-const objects when in fact
they do not/should not modify said objects. The patch makes the semantics
clearer and also helps from a thread safety point-of-view by changing some
pointers to pointers-to-const and marking some instance methods as const.
