Summary: This PR extends the improvements in #3282 to also work when using Direct IO. We see **4.5X performance improvement** in seekrandom benchmark doing long range scans, when using direct reads, on flash. **Description:** This change improves the performance of iterators doing long range scans (e.g. big/full index or table scans in MyRocks) by using readahead and prefetching additional data on each disk IO, and storing in a local buffer. This prefetching is automatically enabled on noticing more than 2 IOs for the same table file during iteration. The readahead size starts with 8KB and is exponentially increased on each additional sequential IO, up to a max of 256 KB. This helps in cutting down the number of IOs needed to complete the range scan. **Implementation Details:** - Used `FilePrefetchBuffer` as the underlying buffer to store the readahead data. `FilePrefetchBuffer` can now take file_reader, readahead_size and max_readahead_size as input to the constructor, and automatically do readahead. - `FilePrefetchBuffer::TryReadFromCache` can now call `FilePrefetchBuffer::Prefetch` if readahead is enabled. - `AlignedBuffer` (which is the underlying store for `FilePrefetchBuffer`) now takes a few additional args in `AlignedBuffer::AllocateNewBuffer` to allow copying data from the old buffer. - Made sure not to re-read partial chunks of data that were already available in the buffer, from device again. - Fixed a couple of cases where `AlignedBuffer::cursize_` was not being properly kept up-to-date. **Constraints:** - Similar to #3282, this gets currently enabled only when ReadOptions.readahead_size = 0 (which is the default value). - Since the prefetched data is stored in a temporary buffer allocated on heap, this could increase the memory usage if you have many iterators doing long range scans simultaneously. - Enabled only for user reads, and disabled for compactions. Compaction reads are controlled by the options `use_direct_io_for_flush_and_compaction` and `compaction_readahead_size`, and the current feature takes precautions not to mess with them. **Benchmarks:** I used the same benchmark as used in #3282.

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com) and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast key value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives. It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF) and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions, making it specially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a single database.
