Summary:
The primary goal of this change is to add support for backing up and
restoring (applying on restore) file temperature metadata, without
committing to either the DB manifest or the FS reported "current"
temperatures being exclusive "source of truth".

To achieve this goal, we need to add temperature information to backup
metadata, which requires updated backup meta schema. Fortunately I
prepared for this in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/8069, which began forward compatibility in version
6.19.0 for this kind of schema update. (Previously, backup meta schema
was not extensible! Making this schema update public will allow some
other "nice to have" features like taking backups with hard links, and
avoiding crc32c checksum computation when another checksum is already
available.) While schema version 2 is newly public, the default schema
version is still 1. Until we change the default, users will need to set
to 2 to enable features like temperature data backup+restore. New
metadata like temperature information will be ignored with a warning
in versions before this change and since 6.19.0. The metadata is
considered ignorable because a functioning DB can be restored without
it.

Some detail:
* Some renaming because "future schema" is now just public schema 2.
* Initialize some atomics in TestFs (linter reported)
* Add temperature hint support to SstFileDumper (used by BackupEngine)

Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9660

Test Plan:
related unit test majorly updated for the new functionality,
including some shared testing support for tracking temperatures in a FS.

Some other tests and testing hooks into production code also updated for
making the backup meta schema change public.

RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team.
It is built on earlier work on [LevelDB](https://github.com/google/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/main/examples

See the [github wiki](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/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.
