Summary:
Since Andres' internship is over, I took over https://reviews.facebook.net/D42555 and rebased and simplified it a bit.
The behavior in this diff is a bit simpler than in D42555:
* only merge operators are passed through FilterMergeValue(). If fitler function returns true, the merge operator is ignored
* compaction filter is *not* called on: 1) results of merge operations and 2) base values that are getting merged with merge operands (the second case was also true in previous diff)
Do we also need a compaction filter to get called on merge results?

Summary:
This patch fixes#7460559. It introduces SingleDelete as a new database
operation. This operation can be used to delete keys that were never
overwritten (no put following another put of the same key). If an overwritten
key is single deleted the behavior is undefined. Single deletion of a
non-existent key has no effect but multiple consecutive single deletions are
not allowed (see limitations).
In contrast to the conventional Delete() operation, the deletion entry is
removed along with the value when the two are lined up in a compaction. Note:
The semantics are similar to @igor's prototype that allowed to have this
behavior on the granularity of a column family (
https://reviews.facebook.net/D42093 ). This new patch, however, is more
aggressive when it comes to removing tombstones: It removes the SingleDelete
together with the value whenever there is no snapshot between them while the
older patch only did this when the sequence number of the deletion was older
than the earliest snapshot.
Most of the complex additions are in the Compaction Iterator, all other changes
should be relatively straightforward. The patch also includes basic support for
single deletions in db_stress and db_bench.
Limitations:
- Not compatible with cuckoo hash tables
- Single deletions cannot be used in combination with merges and normal
deletions on the same key (other keys are not affected by this)
- Consecutive single deletions are currently not allowed (and older version of
this patch supported this so it could be resurrected if needed)

Currently, we only purge duplicate keys and deletions during flush if `earliest_seqno_in_memtable <= newest_snapshot`. This means that the newest snapshot happened before we first created the memtable. This is almost never true for MyRocks and MongoRocks.
This patch makes purging during flush able to understand snapshots. The main logic is copied from compaction_job.cc, although the logic over there is much more complicated and extensive. However, we should try to merge the common functionality at some point.

Summary:
While working on supporting mixing merge operators with
single deletes ( https://reviews.facebook.net/D43179 ),
I realized that returning and dealing with merge results
can be made simpler. Submitting this as a separate diff
because it is not directly related to single deletes.
Before, callers of merge helper had to retrieve the merge
result in one of two ways depending on whether the merge
was successful or not (success = result of merge was single
kTypeValue). For successful merges, the caller could query
the resulting key/value pair and for unsuccessful merges,
the result could be retrieved in the form of two deques of
keys and values. However, with single deletes, a successful merge
does not return a single key/value pair (if merge
operands are merged with a single delete, we have to generate
a value and keep the original single delete around to make
sure that we are not accidentially producing a key overwrite).
In addition, the two existing call sites of the merge
helper were taking the same actions independently from whether
the merge was successful or not, so this patch simplifies that.

This is useful when you have a very large database and most of your lookups succeed. The option allows the store to
not store and use filters in the last level (the largest level which contains data). These filters can take a large amount of
space for large databases (in memory and on-disk). For the last level, these filters are only useful for key misses and not
for key hits. If we are not optimizing for key misses, we can choose to not store these filters for that level.
This option is only provided for BlockBasedTable. We skip the filters when we are compacting

Summary:
Here are the major changes to the Merge Interface. It has been expanded
to handle cases where the MergeOperator is not associative. It does so by stacking
up merge operations while scanning through the key history (i.e.: during Get() or
Compaction), until a valid Put/Delete/end-of-history is encountered; it then
applies all of the merge operations in the correct sequence starting with the
base/sentinel value.
I have also introduced an "AssociativeMerge" function which allows the user to
take advantage of associative merge operations (such as in the case of counters).
The implementation will always attempt to merge the operations/operands themselves
together when they are encountered, and will resort to the "stacking" method if
and only if the "associative-merge" fails.
This implementation is conjectured to allow MergeOperator to handle the general
case, while still providing the user with the ability to take advantage of certain
efficiencies in their own merge-operator / data-structure.
NOTE: This is a preliminary diff. This must still go through a lot of review,
revision, and testing. Feedback welcome!
Test Plan:
-This is a preliminary diff. I have only just begun testing/debugging it.
-I will be testing this with the existing MergeOperator use-cases and unit-tests
(counters, string-append, and redis-lists)
-I will be "desk-checking" and walking through the code with the help gdb.
-I will find a way of stress-testing the new interface / implementation using

is in PickCompactionHybrid().
All files reside in L0. That means all files have overlapping
keys. Each file has a time-bound, i.e. each file contains a
range of keys that were inserted around the same time. The
start-seqno and the end-seqno refers to the timeframe when
these keys were inserted. Files that have contiguous seqno
are compacted together into a larger file. All files are
ordered from most recent to the oldest.
The current compaction algorithm starts to look for
candidate files starting from the most recent file. It continues to
add more files to the same compaction run as long as the
sum of the files chosen till now is smaller than the next
candidate file size. This logic needs to be debated
and validated.
The above logic should reduce write amplification to a

Summary:
The leveldb API is enhanced to support different compression algorithms at
different levels.
This adds the option min_level_to_compress to db_bench that specifies
the minimum level for which compression should be done when
compression is enabled. This can be used to disable compression for levels
0 and 1 which are likely to suffer from stalls because of the CPU load
for memtable flushes and (L0,L1) compaction. Level 0 is special as it
gets frequent memtable flushes. Level 1 is special as it frequently
gets all:all file compactions between it and level 0. But all other levels
could be the same. For any level N where N > 1, the rate of sequential
IO for that level should be the same. The last level is the
exception because it might not be full and because files from it are
not read to compact with the next larger level.
The same amount of time will be spent doing compaction at any
level N excluding N=0, 1 or the last level. By this standard all
of those levels should use the same compression. The difference is that
the loss (using more disk space) from a faster compression algorithm
is less significant for N=2 than for N=3. So we might be willing to
trade disk space for faster write rates with no compression
for L0 and L1, snappy for L2, zlib for L3. Using a faster compression
algorithm for the mid levels also allows us to reclaim some cpu
without trading off much loss in disk space overhead.
Also note that little is to be gained by compressing levels 0 and 1. For
a 4-level tree they account for 10% of the data. For a 5-level tree they
account for 1% of the data.
With compression enabled:
* memtable flush rate is ~18MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~30MB/second
With compression enabled but min_level_to_compress=2
* memtable flush rate is ~320MB/second
* (L0,L1) compaction rate is ~560MB/second
This practicaly takes the same code from https://reviews.facebook.net/D6225
but makes the leveldb api more general purpose with a few additional
lines of code.
