Merge #12604: Add DynamicMemoryUsage() to CDBWrapper to estimate LevelDB memory use

741f0177c Add DynamicMemoryUsage() to LevelDB (Evan Klitzke)

Pull request description:

  This adds a new method `CDBWrapper::DynamicMemoryUsage()` similar to Bitcoin's existing methods of the same name. It's implemented by asking LevelDB for the information, and then parsing the string response. I've also added logging to `CDBWrapper::WriteBatch()` to track this information:

  ```
  $ tail -f ~/.bitcoin/testnet3/debug.log | grep WriteBatch
  2018-03-05 19:34:55 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:17 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:17 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=0.0MiB, after=8.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:22 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:22 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=8.0MiB, after=17.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:26 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:27 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=9.0MiB, after=18.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:40 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:41 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=9.0MiB, after=7.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:52 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:52 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=7.0MiB, after=9.0MiB
  ^C
  ```

  As LevelDB doesn't seem to provide a way to get the database name, I've also added a new `m_name` field to the `CDBWrapper`. This is necessary because we have multiple LevelDB databases (two now, and possibly more later, e.g. #11857).

  I am using this information in other branches where I'm experimenting with changing LevelDB buffer sizes.
