Nick Alexander f86b24001f Add top-level Conn. Fixes #296. (#342) r=rnewman
* Add top-level `Conn`. Fixes #296.

This is a little different than the API rnewman and I originally
discussed in https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/db-conn-thoughts.
A few notes:

- I was led to make a `Schema` instance the thing that is shared,
  rather than a `db::DB`.  It's possible that queries will want to
  know the current transaction at some point (to prevent races, or to
  query historical data), but that can be a future consideration.

- The generation number just allows for a cheap comparison.  I don't
  care to handle races to transact just yet; the long term plan might
  be to make embedding applications responsible for avoiding races, or
  we might handle queuing transactions and yielding report futures in
  Mentat itself.

- The sharing of the partition maps is a little more subtle than
  expected.  Partition maps are volatile: a successful Mentat
  transaction always advances the :db.part/tx partition, so it's not
  worth passing references around.  This means that consumers must
  clone in order to maintain just a single clone per transaction.

Clean some cruft.
