Reachitecting the API to include a tdb_errcode pointer would be a great
- deal of churn; we are better to guarantee that the tdb_errcode is per-thread
- so the current programming model can be maintained.

+, but fortunately most functions return 0 on success and -1 on error: we
+ can change these to return 0 on success and a negative error code on error,
+ and the API remains similar to previous.
+ 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).
