2011-01-17	tdb: remove "threadsafe" option
	We won't be supporting thread-safety, too difficult without upstream support.
2011-01-17	use constants everywhere to reduce GC thrashing
	This makes it easier to notice a typo, too.
2011-01-17	tdb: use fetch with a reusable buffer
	GC reductions
2011-01-13	add suffix_mime output filter
	It's faster than doing it via real Rack middleware.
2010-12-13	minor documentation updates
	This needs a LOT of work.
2010-12-10	String#hash is not stable across processes :<
	We need to implement our own hash functions for splitting databases across multiple files. This was totally fucking up Rainbows!
2010-12-10	deflate: small garbage reduction by concatenation
	String interpolation means an extra string is created.
2010-12-10	tdb: allow enabling the thread-safety option
	Maybe it's still broken...
2010-12-06	allow easier, single-file options for TC and TDB
	Most (other) users only need a single file, even though my primary use of this is for multiple files.
2010-12-05	:path_pattern is independent of the URI
	It can be confusing with printf-style patterns in URIs, so just force path_pattern-users to specify "/" as their path.
2010-12-03	deflate+gzip: do not wrap rack.input if already encoded
	Clients may pre-compress input so we do not have to deal with it on the server side.
2010-12-01	add basic support for the Trivial Database (TDB)
	TDB supports multiple simultaneous readers and writer processes, not just threads.
2010-11-30	support pass-through :encoding for deflate and gzip
	These allow serving pre-compressed data off disk and on-the-fly uncompressing for the few clients that do not accept compressed responses.
2010-11-30	hash: fix some settings for memory-only hash
	These have no finalizers.
2010-11-30	tc/hdb: remove HEAD optimization
	It makes future extensions difficult. HEAD requests aren't common enough to be worth optimizing for.
2010-11-30	internal API: get and head methods require env
	We'll need it for implementing the deflater/inflater
2010-11-23	tc/hdb: add exclusive mode, lock disabling
	The :exclusive mode behaves like TokyoTyrant and keeps the database opened in read-write mode, preventing other processes from accessing the database. This will be useful on Rubies without a GVL. :readonly no longer disables locking by default instead "rdlock=false" must be passed in the query parameter. Write locks may also be disabled with the "wrlock=false" query parameter.
2010-11-23	add plain Hash database support
	Useful as a proof-of-concept and for benchmark base.
2010-11-23	split out common read-only code
	It makes sense for other databases to share the same code.
2010-11-23	use common setup elements
	Some other databases will be able to utilize these variables.
2010-11-23	fix readonly interface
	use 403 to reject PUT/DELETE requests
2010-11-23	add generic Rack read/write test
	This fixes 404s on HEAD requests which do not return a body.
2010-11-23	tc/hdb: minor formatting cleanups
	No point in using more lines than we need to.
2010-11-23	split out common read/write code
	It will be useful when we support other backends.
2010-11-23	rename internal "TokyoCabinet" => "TC"
	It's less typing and less likely to clash on both the eyes and the interpreter.
2010-11-23	rename @hdb* to @db*
	This will allow easier code sharing between backends.
2010-11-22	initial TokyoCabinet hash database support
	Basically working, for now
