New attempt at TDB transaction nesting allow/disallow.
Make the default be that transaction is not allowed and any attempt to create a nested transaction will fail with TDB_ERR_NESTING. If an application can cope with transaction nesting and the implicit semantics of tdb_transaction_commit(), it can enable transaction nesting by using the TDB_ALLOW_NESTING flag. (This used to be ctdb commit 3e49e41c21eb8c53084aa8cc7fd3557bdd8eb7b6)
