Don't maintain the number of writes, it's broken in case
of a savepoint rollback, and is implicitly known from a non-empty
write log.

* yes, they shouldn't have been there in the first place

* the structure for 3 members was a bit of over-engineering;
* 2 ouf of the 3 members are themselves scheduled for removal

* replace vy_buf with stailq

* inline txlogindex_replace
* remove SVCONFLICT flag from tuple

* in preparation with replacement of array with a linked
  list, remove txlog_count().

* use a pointer to transaction value instead of a numeric
offset

Fixes #1440

* update comments
* coding style
* avoid using delete + inserts or delete + replace
  if replace  alone is enough.

Fixes gh-623.

An implementation for both unique and non-unique
secondary indexes for vinyl storage engine.
engine.

Tests for secondary indexes were added to 'engine' test suite.

* only run the garbage collector in tx manager if there are
  conditions for it.

- Remove useless abstraction layers
- Extract explicit vy_task structure from code
- Fix #1558: occasional crashes after dropping index

Needed for #1592

* remove a separate counter for commit sequence
  number, put transaction start and end time on the same logical
  clock scale

Fixes #810

* don't recycle input buffer if this leads to growth of the output
buffer

Needed for secondary keys in vinyl (#623)

Needed to remove VINYL_LSN sequence (#1609).

The only case when the tx manager was used from the backend
was to query the oldest active read view. Instead of querying
from the backend, maintain a sequence and update it
whenever the oldest read view is advanced.

I failed to come up with any resonable test case when the code
would be triggered/do something useful.

* add insert test ase to mvcc.test
* convert hermitage.test to client connections (vs. fibers)

- Remove a, b, c; use union instread.
- Remove unused srzone->compact_mode

Remove artifacts of anticache mode.

Closes #1595

Remove artifacts of anticache mode.

* add basic transactional tests
* port functional tests from C to Lua
