Peter Dillinger e8f997ca59 Update comment on max_valid_backups_to_open (#6105)
Summary:
To reflect changes in PR https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/6072

This comment also implies that a seemingly valid use-case for
max_valid_backups_to_open is flawed: even if you only want to add a new
backup without trying to delete, you might need to clean up after a
backup creation that never finished. To clean up properly requires
opening all backups to get proper ref counts on shared files.

Test Plan: code comment only

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

Linux/Mac Build Status Windows Build status PPC64le Build Status

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 especially 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/
