    Modified Files:

    Log Message:
    Add an optional "keep locked" paremeter to file I/O functions.
    Default is to have the same lock state on return as when entered.
    Lock records when reading/writing.

    Fix defaults to be raw values rather than objects... most obvious with
    Boolean values.

    In directory cvs:/tmp/cvs-serv5841

    Modified Files:
    recordfile.js
    Log Message:
    More concurrency changes...
    1) Don't mswait(1) on a successful lock, or when timeout is zero.
    2) Flush read buffer on Get and ReLoad()
    - If there's a single record in the file, close and re-open it.
    - If a lock is held on a different record already, read that record.
    - Otherwise, read the first record a lock with timeout zero succeeds.
    3) Flush write buffer on Put().

    This should now actually be safe as long as locks work.
    Using file_mutex() on records is the only potential change still needed. (Because POSIX fcntl() locks are insane)

    More concurency overhaul.
    Remember that only one record lock can be held per file on some systems due
    due flock() usage.

    Revert back to using vbuf for write buffering.

    While it would be nice to serialize it and do a single write, there's
    no native functions to create binary values from numbers in the
    Synchronet JS object model at this time.

    Log Message:
    Fix recordfile.js toSource() calls for SM128 compatibility

    toSource() is removed in SpiderMonkey 128. In put(), the default
    value is only read so no copy is needed. In reInit(), use JSON.parse(JSON.stringify()) for deep-copying object/array defaults.
