Igor Canadi a84234a61b Ignore missing column families
Summary:
Before this diff, whenever we Write to non-existing column family, Write() would fail.

This diff adds an option to not fail a Write() when WriteBatch points to non-existing column family. MongoDB said this would be useful for them, since they might have a transaction updating an index that was dropped by another thread. This way, they don't have to worry about checking if all indexes are alive on every write. They don't care if they lose writes to dropped index.

Test Plan: added a small unit test

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage

Build Status

RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team. It is built on 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.

Start with example usage here: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/tree/master/examples

See the github wiki for more explanation.

The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those internal APIs may be changed without warning.

Design discussions are conducted in https://www.facebook.com/groups/rocksdb.dev/
