adam dc1d695ff3 Changes 5.3.15:
* Added support for verifying named in-memory dbs.
* Added an integer key comparison function to improve performance through the
  SQL API.
* Support build on the platforms where pthread_t is a struct.
* Added an API call so the user can specify the size of the region in a heap db.
* Improved Replication Manager's ability to recover from the (perhaps rare)
  phenomenon of two sites trying to connect to each other simultaneously, which
  used to result in loss of both connections, requiring a retry after the
  CONNECTION_RETRY timeout period.
* Enhanced the interface for copying databases for a hot backup. Added configure
  support for --enable-atomicfileread.
* Enhaced the log reading routine to detect that a log file is missing rather
  than returning that a zero length record was found.
* Added pragma bdbsql_shared_resources to set or report the maximum amount of
  memory to be used by shared structures in the main environment region and
  bdbsql_lock_tablesize to set or report the number of buckets in the lock
  object hash table. These are advanced tuning features for applications with
  large number of tables or needs to reduce locking on concurrent long running
  transactions.
* Added set_metadata_dir() and get_metadata_dir() to enable storage of
  persistent metadata files in a location other than the environment home
  directory.
* Improved the error handling through the SQL API. Errors can be sent to a file
  with the use of the BDBSQL_ERROR_FILE pragma.
* Database handles can now be configured to give exclusive access to the
  database.
* XA transactions will now use transaction snapshots if the XA databases they
  operate on were configured with DB_MULTIVERSION.
* Added additional stats fields into the C# API
* Added pragma bdbsql_single_process to keep the Berkeley DB environment
  information on the heap instead of in shared memory. This option cannot be
  used if the database is accessed from multiple processes.
* Improved the ability of DB->compact to move DB_HASH database pages to the
  begining of the file.
