Via custom isolation protocol that both server and clients must cooperatively follow. This is the core change that enables file cache to be practically shared while each client can still be provided with isolated view of the database. This patch brings only server changes, tests + the minimum client bits to support the tests. The client library, that will implement isolation protocol on client side, will come next. This patch is organized as follows: - wcfs.go brings in description of the protocol, overview of how server implements that protocol and the implementation itself. See also notes.txt - wcfs_test.py brings in tests for server implementation. tWCFS._abort_ontimeout had to be moved into nogil mode into wcfs_test.pyx to avoid deadlock on the GIL (see comments in wcfs_test.pyx for details). - files added in wcfs/client/ are needed to provide client-side implementation of WatchLink - the message exchange protocol over opened head/watch file - for tests. Client-side watchlink implementation lives in wcfs/client/wcfs_watchlink.{h,cpp}. The other additions in wcfs/client/ are to support that and to expose the WatchLink to Python. Client-side bits are done right in C++ because upcoming WCFS client library will be implemented in C++ to work in nogil mode in order to avoid deadlock on the GIL because client-side pinner thread might be woken-up synchronously by WCFS server at any moment, including when another client thread already holds the GIL and is paused by WCFS.
