Please review, comments are *highly* appreciated! I've tested them locally with dbench (maybe something else I should try?) to be sure all works as expected but better to have them reviewed since tests do not always reveal potential problems. The idea of series is to remove global rename_lock and prepare the ground for future factoring out of the shrinker code. Thanks, Cyrill
