This is not an API-breaking change, because it reduces the API that the
leveldb embedder must implement. The project will build just fine
against ports that still implement InitOnce.
C++11 guarantees thread-safe initialization of static variables inside
functions. This is a more restricted form of std::call_once or
pthread_once_t (e.g., single call site), so the compiler might be able
to generate better code [1]. Equally important, having less code in
port_example.h makes it easier to port to other platforms.
Due to the change above, this CL introduces a new approach for storing
the singleton BytewiseComparatorImpl instance returned by
BytewiseComparator(). The new approach avoids a dynamic memory
allocation, which eliminates the false positive from LeakSanitizer
reported in https://github.com/google/leveldb/issues/200
