In the distant past a 'FASTOP' was implemented, but never actually worked
properly.

It was observed that a true fast op could be implemented using an async
calling mechanism, however this is implemented differently from the original
work.  The new work splits IPC channel into two parts.  Then the async calls
are handled as they can be, or forced before the next sync call.  This
ensures that all database operations are kept in sync.

Note, this work is on a separate branch as it needs a lot more review
before I would feel safe integrating it.  It's also not required to fix
any bugs, but simply should help with performance.

See the async-ipc branch of pseudo repository.
