  The tdb_fetch, tdb_firstkey and tdb_nextkey functions need to take a TDB_DATA
  pointer and return an error code.
  It is also simpler to have tdb_nextkey replace its key argument in place,
  freeing up any old .dptr.

-This requires dynamic per-thread allocations, which is awkward with POSIX
- threads (pthread_key_create space is limited and we cannot simply allocate
- a key for every TDB).

 Internal locking is required to make sure that fcntl locks do not overlap
  between threads, and also that the global list of tdbs is maintained.

 Note that by limiting valid offsets to 56 bits, we can pack everything we
  need into 3 64-byte words, meaning our minimum record size is 8 bytes.
