291cd954fb Change Win32 O_SYNC method to O_DSYNC because that is what the method
currently does.  This is now the default Win32 wal sync method because
we perfer o_datasync to fsync.

Also, change Win32 fsync to a new wal sync method called
fsync_writethrough because that is the behavior of _commit, which is
what is used for fsync on Win32.

Backpatch to 8.0.X.

4e8af8d273 Replace ARC cache management algorithm with the similar but slightly
simpler 2Q algorithm, to avoid possible problems with the pending patent
on ARC.  Testing so far suggests that there is little if any performance
loss from doing this.

Note that this patch is going into the 8.0 branch only; a much more
extensive revision is planned for HEAD.

aa060cd714 Close all cursors created during a failed subtransaction. This is needed
to avoid problems when a cursor depends on objects created or changed in
the same subtransaction.  We'd like to do better someday, but this seems
the only workable answer for 8.0.1.
