Description
-------
This commit replaces the sorter's flat list of clients with a tree; the
tree represents the hierarchical relationship between sorter clients.
Each node in the tree contains a vector of pointers to child nodes. The
tree might contain nodes that do not correspond directly to sorter
clients. For example, adding clients "a/b" and "c/d" results in the
following tree:
root
-> a
-> b
-> c
-> d
The `sort` member function still only returns one result for each active
client in the sorter. This is implemented by ensuring that each sorter
client is associated with a leaf node in the tree (i.e., internal nodes
are not returned by `sort`). Note that it is possible for a leaf node to
be transformed into an internal node by a subsequent insertion; to
handle this case, we "implicitly" create an extra child node, which
maintains the invariant that each client is associated with a leaf
node. For example, if the client "a/b/x" is added to the tree above, the
result is:
root
-> a
-> b
-> .
-> x
-> c
-> d
The "." leaf node holds the allocation that has been made to the "a/b"
client itself; the "a/b" node holds the sum of all the allocations that
have been made to the subtree rooted at "a/b", which also includes
"a/b/x". The "." node is called a "virtual leaf node".
This commit also introduces a new approach to sorting: rather than
keeping a `std::set` of sorter clients, we now keep a tree of
`std::vector`, which is sorted explicitly via `std::sort` when
necessary. The previous implementation tried to optimize the sorting
process by updating the sort order incrementally when a single sorter
client was updated; this commit removes that optimization, and instead
re-sorts the entire tree whenever a change is made that might alter the
sort order. Re-introducing a version of this optimization would make
sense in the future (MESOS-7390), but benchmarking suggests that this
commit results in a net improvement in sorter performance for
non-hierarchical clients, anyway. The performance improvement is likely
due to the introduction of a secondary hashmap that allows the leaf node
associated with a client name to be found efficiently; the previous
implementation required a linear scan of a `std::set`.
