…aph-io#1696) In Dgraph, we already use Raft write-ahead log. Also, when we commit transactions, we update tens of thousands of keys in one go. To optimize this write path, this PR introduces a way to directly hand over Skiplist to Badger, short circuiting Badger's Value Log and WAL. This feature allows Dgraph to generate Skiplists while processing mutations and just hand them over to Badger during commits. It also accepts a callback which can be run when Skiplist is written to disk. This is useful for determining when to create a snapshot in Dgraph.
