Closesgoogle/leveldb#320
During compaction it was possible that records from a block b1=(l1,u1)
would be pushed down from level i to level i+1. If there is a block
b2=(l2,u2) at level i with k1 = user_key(u1) = user_key(l2) then
a subsequent search for k1 will yield the record l2 which has a smaller
sequence number than u1 because the sort order for records sorts
increasing by user key but decreaing by sequence number.
This change add a call to a new function AddBoundaryInputs to
SetupOtherInputs. AddBoundaryInputs searches for a block b2 matching the
criteria above and adds it to the set of files to be compacted. Whenever
AddBoundaryInputs is called it is important that the compaction fileset
in level i+1 (known as c->inputs_[1] in the code) be recomputed. Each
call to AddBoundaryInputs is followed by a call to GetOverlappingInputs.
SetupOtherInputs is called on both manual and automated compaction
passes. It is called for both level zero and for levels greater than 0.
The original change posted in https://github.com/google/leveldb/pull/339
has been modified to also include changed made by Chris Mumford<cmumford@google.com>
in 4b72cb14f8
1. Releasing snapshots during test cleanup to avoid
memory leak warnings.
2. Refactored test to use testutil.h to be in line
with other issue tests and to create the test
database in the correct temporary location.
3. Added copyright banner.
Otherwise, just minor formatting and limiting character
width to 80 characters.
Additionally the change was rebased on top of current master and
changes previously made to the Makefile were ported to the
CMakeLists.txt.
Testing Done:
A test program (issue320_test) was constructed that performs mutations
while snapshots are active. issue320_test fails without this bug fix
after 64k writes. It passes with this bug fix. It was run with 200M
writes and passed.
Unit tests were written for the new function that was added to the
code. Make test was run and seen to pass.

Fix issues 200, 201
Also,
* Fix link to bigtable paper in docs.
* New sstables will have the file extension .ldb. .sst files will
continue to be recognized.
* When building for iOS, use xcrun to execute the compiler. This may
affect issue 177.
