    hammer2 - Retool dmsg mechanics to improve virtual circuit design 1/2
    
    * Rip-out the circuit structures and forging code.  These changes simplify
      the DMSG code considerably.
    
    * Retool the core command/response messaging mechanics to allow either
      side of a transaction to initiate commands and receive responses.
    
      This means we cannot use DMSGF_REPLY to determine whether the transmit-side
      or receive-side state RBTREE holds the msgid.  Instead we add two more
      flags DMSGF_REVTRANS and DMSGF_REVCIRC to tell the receiver which RBTREE
      holds the msgid and/or circuit id.
    
    * Retool to allow transaction stacking.  Sub-transactions can now run under
      their parents.
    
    * Retool the transaction code to provide virtual circuit functionality
      through the use of transaction stacking.
    
      With these changes, the normal SPAN mechanism which operates using
      open transactions can also be used to route messages over the SPAN.
      There is no longer a need to forge a return path because sub-transaction
      commands can now be initiated 'out' over an active, received SPAN
      transaction.
    
      This part is not completely working yet, it needs the actual routing
      code and some adjustments to the SPAN mechanism to prevent path ripups
      from interfering with any in-progress transactions.  Ultimately the
      availability of a new path would have two be detected by the end points
      so new 'connections' can be forged over the new, better path.
