This particular change also makes the end result easier to read.  I
have no objection to officially declaring that we do support
"adding" new transaction update while we are committing (and we do
not support other futzing like "removing" or "reordering"), either.

I expect that somewhere in this series transaction->nr will not stay
constant even if the client code of ref-transaction API makes no
direct call that adds a new update[] element, though, even if it is
not done in this patch.

Thanks.
