Summary:
Add `experimental_mempurge_policy` option flag and introduce two new `MemPurge` (Memtable Garbage Collection) policies: 'ALWAYS' and 'ALTERNATE'. Default value: ALTERNATE.
`ALWAYS`: every flush will first go through a `MemPurge` process. If the output is too big to fit into a single memtable, then the mempurge is aborted and a regular flush process carries on. `ALWAYS` is designed for user that need to reduce the number of L0 SST file created to a strict minimum, and can afford a small dent in performance (possibly hits to CPU usage, read efficiency, and maximum burst write throughput).
`ALTERNATE`: a flush is transformed into a `MemPurge` except if one of the memtables being flushed is the product of a previous `MemPurge`. `ALTERNATE` is a good tradeoff between reduction in number of L0 SST files created and performance. `ALTERNATE` perform particularly well for completely random garbage ratios, or garbage ratios anywhere in (0%,50%], and even higher when there is a wild variability in garbage ratios.
This PR also includes support for `experimental_mempurge_policy` in `db_bench`.
Testing was done locally by replacing all the `MemPurge` policies of the unit tests with `ALTERNATE`, as well as local testing with `db_crashtest.py` `whitebox` and `blackbox`. Overall, if an `ALWAYS` mempurge policy passes the tests, there is no reasons why an `ALTERNATE` policy would fail, and therefore the mempurge policy was set to `ALWAYS` for all mempurge unit tests.
