gcc defaults to exporting all symbols, but other linkers do not. Adding
the LEVELDB_EXPORT macro allows a project to set LEVELDB_SHARED_LIBRARY
when building/linking with leveldb as a shared library.

This is to allow leveldb to be created as a shared library on all
platforms support by Chrome and enables a fix for
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=764810.

This also has the benefit of reducing the shared library size from
418863 to 380367 bytes (64-bit Linux).

Use __APPLE__ instead of OS_MACOS when testing for the Apple platform and
remove the latter symbol from the BUILD file. This fixes incompatibility issues
when using the library on an Apple device.

Changes made to support iOS builds and other architectures
without support for SSE 4.2.

db_bench reports original crc32 speed at:

    crc32c : 3.610 micros/op; 1082.0 MB/s (4K per op)

with this change performance has increased to:

    crc32c : 0.843 micros/op; 4633.6 MB/s (4K per op)

1. Object files, libraries, and compiled executables are put
   into subdirectories.
2. The shared library is linked from individual object files.
   This provides for greater parallelism on large desktops
   while at the same time making for easier builds on small
   (i.e. embedded) systems. Fixes issue #279.
3. One program, db_bench, is compiled using the shared library.
4. The source file for "leveldbutil" was renamed from
   leveldb_main.cc to leveldbutil.cc. This provides for simpler
   makefile rules.
5. Because all targets placed the library (libleveldb.a) at the top
   level, the last platform built (desktop/device) always overwrote
   any prior artifact.

Changes are:

* Update version number to 1.18
* Replace the basic fprintf call with a call to fwrite in order to
  work around the apparent compiler optimization/rewrite failure that we are
  seeing with the new toolchain/iOS SDKs provided with Xcode6 and iOS8.
* Fix ALL the header guards.
* Createed a README.md with the LevelDB project description.
* A new CONTRIBUTING file.
* Don't implicitly convert uint64_t to size_t or int.  Either preserve it as
  uint64_t, or explicitly cast. This fixes MSVC warnings about possible value
  truncation when compiling this code in Chromium.
* Added a DumpFile() library function that encapsulates the guts of the
  "leveldbutil dump" command. This will allow clients to dump
  data to their log files instead of stdout. It will also allow clients to
  supply their own environment.
* leveldb: Remove unused function 'ConsumeChar'.
* leveldbutil: Remove unused member variables from WriteBatchItemPrinter.
* OpenBSD, NetBSD and DragonflyBSD have _LITTLE_ENDIAN, so define
  PLATFORM_IS_LITTLE_ENDIAN like on FreeBSD. This fixes:
   * issue #143
   * issue #198
   * issue #249
* Switch from <cstdatomic> to <atomic>. The former never made it into the
  standard and doesn't exist in modern gcc versions at all.  The later contains
  everything that leveldb was using from the former.
  This problem was noticed when porting to Portable Native Client where no memory
  barrier is defined.  The fact that <cstdatomic> is missing normally goes
  unnoticed since memory barriers are defined for most architectures.
* Make Hash() treat its input as unsigned.  Before this change LevelDB files
  from platforms with different signedness of char were not compatible. This
  change fixes: issue #243
* Verify checksums of index/meta/filter blocks when paranoid_checks set.
* Invoke all tools for iOS with xcrun. (This was causing problems with the new
  XCode 5.1.1 image on pulse.)
* include <sys/stat.h> only once, and fix the following linter warning:
  "Found C system header after C++ system header"
* When encountering a corrupted table file, return Status::Corruption instead of
  Status::InvalidArgument.
* Support cygwin as build platform, patch is from https://code.google.com/p/leveldb/issues/detail?id=188
* Fix typo, merge patch from https://code.google.com/p/leveldb/issues/detail?id=159
* Fix typos and comments, and address the following two issues:
  * issue #166
  * issue #241
* Add missing db synchronize after "fillseq" in the benchmark.
* Removed unused variable in SeekRandom: value (issue #201)

- switched from mmap based writing to simpler stdio based writing. Has a
  minor impact (0.5 microseconds) on microbenchmarks for asynchronous
  writes. Synchronous writes speed up from 30ms to 10ms on linux/ext4.
  Should be much more reliable on diverse platforms.
- compaction errors now immediately put the database into a read-only
  mode (until it is re-opened). As a downside, a disk going out of
  space and then space being created will require a re-open to recover
  from, whereas previously that would happen automatically. On the
  plus side, many corruption possibilities go away.
- force the DB to enter an error-state so that all future writes fail
  when a synchronous log write succeeds but the sync fails.
- repair now regenerates sstables that exhibit problems
- fix issue 218 - Use native memory barriers on OSX
- fix issue 212 - QNX build is broken
- fix build on iOS with xcode 5
- make tests compile and pass on windows

Additionally,
* Remove calls to exit(1).
* Fix unused-variable warnings from clang.
* Fix possible overflow error related to num_restart value >= (2^32/4).
* Add leveldbutil to .gitignore.
* Add better log messages when Write is stalled on a compaction.

Details:
* Fix shared library building.
* Reorganize linking commands so flags like --as-needed can be passed.
* C binding exports version numbers.
* Fix small typos in documention.

Highlights
----------
Mmap at most 1000 files on Posix to improve performance for large databases.
Support for more architectures (thanks to Alexander K.)

Building and porting
--------------------
HP/UX support (issue 126)
AtomicPointer for ia64 (issue 123)
Sparc v9 support (issue 124)
Atomic ops for powerpc
Use -fno-builtin-memcmp only when using g++

Bug fixes
---------
Stop ignoring FLAGS_open_files in db_bench
Make bloom test behavior agnostic to endian-ness

Performance
-----------
Limit number of mmapped files to 1000 to improve perf for large dbs
Do not delay for 1 second on shutdown path (issue 125)

Misc
----
Make InMemoryEnv return a no-op logger
C binding now has a wrapper for free (issue 117)
Add thread-safety annotations
Added an in-process lock table (issue 120)
Make RandomAccessFile and SequentialFile non-copyable

various platforms; improve android port speed.

Avoid static initializer by using a new portability interface for
thread-safe lazy initialization.  Custom ports will need to be
extended to implement InitOnce/OnceType/LEVELDB_ONCE_INIT.

Fix endian-ness detection (fixes Powerpc builds).

Build related fixes:
- Support platforms that have unversioned shared libraries.
- Fix IOS build rules.

Android improvements
- Speed up atomic pointers
- Share more code with port_posix.

Do not spin in a tight loop attempting compactions if the file system
is inaccessible (e.g., if kerberos tickets have expired or if it is out
of space).

In particular, we add a new FilterPolicy class.  An instance
of this class can be supplied in Options when opening a
database.  If supplied, the instance is used to generate
summaries of keys (e.g., a bloom filter) which are placed in
sstables.  These summaries are consulted by DB::Get() so we
can avoid reading sstable blocks that are guaranteed to not
contain the key we are looking for.

This change provides one implementation of FilterPolicy
based on bloom filters.

Other changes:
- Updated version number to 1.4.
- Some build tweaks.
- C binding for CompactRange.
- A few more benchmarks: deleteseq, deleterandom, readmissing, seekrandom.
- Minor .gitignore update.

(1) Separate out C++ and CC flags (fixes c_test compilation)
(2) Move snappy/perftools detection to script
(3) Fix db_bench_sqlite3 and db_bench_tree_db build rules

- Makefile: Use $(CXX) for compiling C++ files,
  don't override the environment's value of $CXX

- build_detect_platform: use $CXX instead of g++.

Based on bug report from Theo Schlossnagle:
http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/issues/detail?id=46

(Sync with uptream at 25807040.)

- Added DB::CompactRange() method.

  Changed manual compaction code so it breaks up compactions of
  big ranges into smaller compactions.

  Changed the code that pushes the output of memtable compactions
  to higher levels to obey the grandparent constraint: i.e., we
  must never have a single file in level L that overlaps too
  much data in level L+1 (to avoid very expensive L-1 compactions).

  Added code to pretty-print internal keys.

- Fixed bug where we would not detect overlap with files in
  level-0 because we were incorrectly using binary search
  on an array of files with overlapping ranges.

  Added "leveldb.sstables" property that can be used to dump
  all of the sstables and ranges that make up the db state.

- Removing post_write_snapshot support.  Email to leveldb mailing
  list brought up no users, just confusion from one person about
  what it meant.

- Fixing static_cast char to unsigned on BIG_ENDIAN platforms.

  Fixes	Issue 35 and Issue 36.

- Comment clarification to address leveldb Issue 37.

- Change license in posix_logger.h to match other files.

- A build problem where uint32 was used instead of uint32_t.

Sync with upstream @24408625

Adding GNU/kFreeBSD support. As requested here:
http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/issues/detail?id=38

Use uint64_t instead of size_t in MemEnvTest. As pointed out at
http://code.google.com/p/leveldb/issues/detail?id=41

- LevelDB patch for FreeBSD. This resolves Issue 22.
  Contributed by dforsythe (thanks!).

- Removing Chromium-specific files.
  They are now going to live in the Chromium repository.

- Adding a benchmark page comparing LevelDB performance
  to SQLite and Kyoto Cabinet's TreeDB, along with
  code to generate the benchmarks.
  Thanks to Kevin Tseng for compiling the benchmarks,
  and Scott Hess and Mikio Hirabayashi for their
  help and advice.

This revision adds two major changes:
1. build_detect_platform which generates build_config.mk
   with platform-dependent flags for the build process
2. /port/atomic_pointer.h with anAtomicPointerimplementation
   for platforms without <cstdatomic>

Some of this code is loosely based on patches submitted to the 
LevelDB mailing list at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/leveldb
Tip of the hat to Dave Smith and Edouard A, who both sent patches.

The presence of Snappy (http://code.google.com/p/snappy/) and
cstdatomic are now both detected in the build_detect_platform
script (1.) which gets executing during make.

For (2.), instead of broadly importing atomicops_* from Chromium or
the Google performance tools, we chose to just implement AtomicPointer 
and the limited atomic load and store operations it needs. 
This resulted in much less code and fewer files - everything is 
contained in atomic_pointer.h.
