Yueh-Hsuan Chiang e11f676e34 Add OptionsUtil::LoadOptionsFromFile() API
Summary:
This patch adds OptionsUtil::LoadOptionsFromFile() and
OptionsUtil::LoadLatestOptionsFromDB(), which allow developers
to construct DBOptions and ColumnFamilyOptions from a RocksDB
options file.  Note that most pointer-typed options such as
merge_operator will not be constructed.

With this API, developers no longer need to remember all the
options in order to reopen an existing rocksdb instance like
the following:

  DBOptions db_options;
  std::vector<std::string> cf_names;
  std::vector<ColumnFamilyOptions> cf_opts;

  // Load primitive-typed options from an existing DB
  OptionsUtil::LoadLatestOptionsFromDB(
      dbname, &db_options, &cf_names, &cf_opts);

  // Initialize necessary pointer-typed options
  cf_opts[0].merge_operator.reset(new MyMergeOperator());
  ...

  // Construct the vector of ColumnFamilyDescriptor
  std::vector<ColumnFamilyDescriptor> cf_descs;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < cf_opts.size(); ++i) {
    cf_descs.emplace_back(cf_names[i], cf_opts[i]);
  }

  // Open the DB
  DB* db = nullptr;
  std::vector<ColumnFamilyHandle*> cf_handles;
  auto s = DB::Open(db_options, dbname, cf_descs,
                    &handles, &db);

Test Plan:
Augment existing tests in column_family_test
options_test
db_test
