bq. we don't know how much of an sstable we'll need to read for a given slice 
ahead of time

Thinking about it more, just checking the position where we start the slice 
would probably be Good Enough (certainly better than nothing).

 We could use mincore on, say, 1% of reads to be able to report actual buffer 
 cache hit rate.  This would be useful when troubleshooting slow reads, e.g., 
 are reads to CF X slow because it's hitting disk, or because there are a lot 
 of tombstones in the row?

Two thoughts:
# The right way to do this now is probably to integrate with tracing -- if 
tracing is enabled, do the mincore check and trace the results; if not, don't 
bother
# Actually implementing this would be a PITA because of our everything is an 
iterator read path -- we don't know how much of an sstable we'll need to read 
for a given slice ahead of time

Note that we already did a JNA mincore wrapper for CASSANDRA-1902 (which did 
not end up getting committed, but the patches are still there).
