Scalable Atomic Visibility with RAMP Transactions

Another angle on distributed consistency with MVCC and different ways to
get it.
Nice to see no dependency on a centralised
statement/commit/log/transaction number oracle.
To me this kind of design aligns better with the physics of the situation.

Now if only MySQL Cluster supported MVCC :)
