Don't take a reference to a temporary when comparing first and last encoded keys

In DiskRowSeWriter we have a check that makes sure that the first encoded key 
is less
than or equal to the last key. We perform the check by creating slices for the 
keys
and comparing the slices, for 'first_enc_slice' we're building it with a 
reference
to the string returned by key_index_writer()->GetMetaValueOrDie(), which ceases 
to
exist immediately.

By making sure that the string survives the check the crash disappears. This 
was most
likely to happen in mac osx for some reason that is not completely obvious.

While this doesn't contain a test for the crash it was easily reproducible by 
setting
kFlushDueToTimeMs in tablet_peer_mm_ops.cc to something like 2 and then running 
any
test that performed a reasonable amount of flushes (like create-table-itest). 
With
this fix it isn't reproducible anymore.

I also tested this with a large-ish table (150GBs) which would crash 
semi-regularly
and can't observe the crashes anymore.
