Merge into lmdb about lmdbxx

[hoytech]

Into the LMDB distribution proper, from symas? That is highly unlikely to ever happen, since it's a pure C project and I don't think they're very enthusiastic about C++.

Also, there are multiple C++ wrappers, so who is to say which one becomes the bundled version? I would impudently suggest that my fork of this project (https://github.com/hoytech/lmdbxx) be considered too. :)

Yours is definitely more updated. I'm a package maintainer for Haiku, so trying to figure out which to use for our re-distribution.

[hoytech]

In my obviously biased opinion, if you are OK with requiring a C++17 or higher compiler, you should use my fork since it has some important bugfixes.

[kallisti5]

@hoytech ow. Yours definitely isn't API compatible with this one. Maybe you should have bumped the major version number vs minor :-)

[hoytech]

Good point, sorry about that. Some of the API changes are necessary. I believe removing the templated accessor methods was especially important, they frequently caused bugs.

Anyway I tagged a 1.0.0 release too:
