I added two functions to the kdb library:

	krb5_error_code krb5_dbm_open_database(void);
	krb5_error_code krb5_dbm_close_database(void);

The first function opens and locks the library; if krb5_dbm_open_database()
is called then other functions which write the library don't have to call
dbm_open() for every write.  This is intended for kdb5_convert and
kdb5_edit, which may have to write a very large number of entries into the
database.

close_database() undoes the effects of open_database()
