hsearch(3) and friends are just too horrid of APIs and subject
to fatal problems due to system-dependent ENTRY.key use of
strdup(3). So replace it with khashl (which is a newer, smaller
version of the widely-used khash in git.git).
We'll also be able to use khashl in the future for
the FUSE shim if liburcu isn't available.

This will allow us to use p2q-compatible specifications such as
"dfpost7" to only capture blob OIDs which are 7 characters in
length (the indexer will always index down to 7 characters)

Xapian has always sorted termlist iterators, so we now:
1) break out of the iterator loop early on non-matches
2) avoid doing sorting ourselves
As a result, we'll also favor the wantarray forms of xap_terms
and all_terms to preserve sort order in most cases.

The C++ version will allow us to take full advantage of Xapian's
APIs for better queries, and the Perl bindings version can still
be advantageous in the future since we'll be able to support
timeouts effectively.

It ought to help a bit with organization since xap_helper.h
is getting somewhat large and we'll need new endpoints to
support WWW, lei, and whatever else that needs to come.
