Transaction Support

[qpfiffer]

General ticket for transactions. API, implementation, ideas, thoughts, etc. Transactions should have the following goals:

• Make all operations inside a transaction atomic
• Lock the database to prevent unwanted bullshit
• Easy-to-use
• Durable, which means all writes in the transaction should be synced to disk, even before the transaction is committed.

Going to do multiple, I think. I'll hold all current committed transactions in a splay tree, and then all transaction commands will require a transaction ID for lookup.
