  Description     : Trivial Database - next generation

 This is a simple database API. It is modelled after the structure
 of GDBM. TDB features, unlike GDBM, multiple writers support with
 appropriate locking and transactions.

 ntdb uses a fileformat that is incompatible with tdb, but the API
 is similar. It improves performance, adds support for databases
 larger than 4Gb, and improves integration with talloc.
