Read txns would lock pages allocated after the txn, keeping those pages
off the free list until closing the read txn. Instead, track allocating
txid to compute page lifetime, freeing pages if all txns between
page allocation and page free are closed.
This commit refactors the test suite to make it cleaner and to use the
standard testing library better. The `assert()`, `equals()`, and `ok()`
functions have been removed and some test names have been changed for
clarity.
No functionality has been changed.
This commit adds a cache to the freelist which combines the available free pages and pending free pages in
a single map. This was added to improve performance where freelist.isFree() was consuming 70% of CPU time
for large freelists.
This commit fixes the freelist so that it frees from the beginning of the data file
instead of the end. It also adds a fast path for pages which can be allocated from
the first free pages and it includes read transaction stats.
I changed the Transaction/RWTransaction types to Tx/RWTx, respectively. This makes the naming
more consistent with other packages such as database/sql. The txnid is changed to txid as well.
