#### Problem
blockstore_db.rs has a mutual dependency between blockstore_metrics.rs.
#### Summary of Changes
This PR removes the mutual dependency by moving the option-related stuff
out from blockstore_db.rs to its new home --- blockstore_options.rs.
By doing this, we address the mutual dependency and also make the code cleaner.
