BenchmarkIteratorScanNextPrefix now exercises value blocks. Also, the benchmark now does an iterator step per benchmark iteration instead of a full scan -- this makes the benchmark faster and allows us to compare performance metrics across benchmark parameters (since the metrics do not vary based on the total number of different key prefixes in the LSM).
There is a tiny tweak to the field ordering in LazyFetcher and additional code comments about performance and future optimization.
