    - Redesign Lock API in preparation for native locks.
    - Remove LockFactory.
    - Fix locking bug with non-default merge lock timeout.
    - Fix locking bug with concurrent BackgroundMergers.
    - Port some tests to C.

commit 2051451de456f51e35345f12206ca4cb0040dd7c
Author: Nick Wellnhofer <we...@aevum.de>

    Separate purging of snapshots and aborted merges
    
    Purge aborted merge when starting an Indexer/BGMerger session and
    purge snapshots at the end of Commit.
    
    Rework FilePurger to use a single hash for purged and spared files
    when purging snapshots. Optimize Folder handling assuming that
    Snapshots only contain entries local to the index folder.
    
    Make sure to list the contents of the real directory, not the
    virtual compound file directory. CFReaderDirHandle lists both real
    and virtual files which might be a bug in itself.
    
    Port BGMerger tests to C.
    
    TODO: Move Perl BGMerge test to t/binding.

    Merge SharedLock into LockFileLock
    
    Supplying the lock type when requesting a lock better matches other
    file lock APIs. Merging the implementations allows to convert
    Maybe_Delete_File into a static function.
    
    Make shared and exclusive locks check for locks of the other type
    except for exclusive locks created with `exclusive_only`.
    
    Clear_Stale is broken for shared locks but will be removed with the
    following commit.

    Always check for stale locks in Is_Locked
    
    Note that checking for stale locks isn't necessary when requesting
    shared locks.

    Remove LockFactory and make Lock a private class
    
    If there are users who really use custom locks, this can be reverted.

    Don't allow double obtain/release

    Rework snapshot and deletion locks
    
    Request exclusive or shared snapshot locks instead of the global
    deletion lock. This removes the need to retry lock requests and
    reduces contention.

commit 4e6e5bbf2814e8e2a824b5ae1b91d068233cd248

    Improve merge lock handling
    
    Don't check the merge lock with Is_Locked in
    FilePurger_Purge_Aborted_Merge. This prevented background mergers from
    cleaning up because they already held the merge lock. Require that
    callers hold the merge lock instead.
    
    Don't check the merge lock with Is_Locked in Indexer_init. Since we
    hold the write lock, and the merge.json file from aborted merge has
    been removed, the presence of a merge.json file is a reliable indicator
    that it belongs to an active background merger. Move the merge lock
    request form S_maybe_merge to Indexer_init.
    
    Also, S_maybe_merge used to Obtain the merge lock instead of merely
    Requesting it. Waiting for a potentially long-running background merger
    slows things down unnecessarily and increases the chance for write lock
    contention. This didn't affect the default configuration which has a
    zero merge lock timeout.

commit de14d4ca31ab27fc1569966c1b182fa4829afd40

    Change lock acquitision order in BGMerger_init
    
    Obtain the merge lock before the write lock so that an already running
    background merger won't abort when failing to acquire the write lock
    during commit.
    
    Release the merge lock at the very end of BGMerger_Commit. It doesn't
    really matter when we release the merge lock after we acquired the
    write lock in BGMerger_Prepare_Commit. I think it makes the code
    clearer to release it at the very end of BGMerger_Commit.

    Remove Lock_Is_Locked

Author: Nick Wellnhofer <we...@aevum.de>
Date:   2017-02-17T19:26:13Z

    Don't hide I/O errors behind LockErr
    
    Only return a LockErr if there's lock contention, not on unrelated
    I/O errors.
