[PATCH 10/11] tools/xenstore: drop use of tdb



Today all Xenstore nodes are stored in a TDB data base. This data base
has several disadvantages:

- it is using a fixed sized hash table, resulting in high memory
  overhead for small installations with only very few VMs, and a rather
  large performance hit for systems with lots of VMs due to many
  collisions

- Xenstore is only single-threaded, while TDB is designed to be fit
  for multi-threaded use cases, resulting in much higher code
  complexity than needed

- special use cases of Xenstore are not possible to implement with TDB
  in an effective way, while an implementation of a data base tailored
  for Xenstore could simplify some handling (e.g. transactions) a lot

So drop using TDB and store the nodes directly in memory making them
easily accessible. Use a hash-based lookup mechanism for fast lookup
of nodes by their full path.

For now only replace TDB keeping the current access functions.
