The reasoning behind this, is that if we are consistent in our
documentation about the uint*_t stuff, people will be less tempted to
write new code that uses the non-standard types.
I am not going to bump the man page dates, as these changes can be
considered style nits. The meaning of the man pages is unaffected.

This fix mostly matters after r206129 that made it possible for
st_blksize to be greater than 4K. For this reason, this change should
be MFC-ed before r206129.
Also, it seems that all FreeBSD uitlities that use db(3) hash databases
and create new databases in files, specify their own block size value
and thus do not depend on block size autotuning.

This does not include the new hash routines since they will cause problems
when reading old hash files.
Since mpool(3) has been changed, provide a compatibility shim for older
binaries.

open(). The previous logic only initializes the database when O_CREAT is
set, but as long as we can open and write the database, and the database
is empty, we should initialize it anyway.

an invariant (actually, an ugly hack) to fail, and all Hell would break

When deleting a big key, the offset of an empty page should be bsize, not
bsize-1; otherwise an insertion into the empty page will cause the new key to
be elongated by 1 byte.
Make the packing more dense in a couple of cases.

all; before freeing memory, zero out them before we release it as free
heap. This will eliminate some potential information leak issue.
While there, remove the PURIFY option. There is a slight difference between
the new behavior and the old -DPURIFY behavior, with the latter initializes
memory with 0xff's. The difference between old and new approach does not
generate observable difference.

thus some prototypes were left intact since they will be changed in the
future).

from __bt_new() (and from mpool_new()).
I don't know why this linp[0] is read before stored because this
should be controlled by .lower and .upper member of PAGE structure
which are correctly initialized.
But this workaround fixes the problem on my environment and this
module has #ifdef PURIFY option which initializes new and reused
memory from mpool by memset(p, 0xff, size) like as I did.
Please feel free to fix the real bug instead of my workaround.
mpool_open(3) - it is *not* really used for synchronization; in fact,
it is not used at all.
