This certainly seems sensible to me. I've been thinking about also
splitting out ODB transactions into a separate header. I may do
something similar in the future.

Out of curiousity, since we include the header here, it is transitively
included wherever we are using `struct odb_source`. Ideally should we be
explicit or would it be best to just rely on this transitively?

The rest of this patch looks good.
