BatchPutAttributes now added to node-mdb

[rtweed]

I've added the BatchPutAttributes API to node-mdb. It seems to test
out OK for me but I'd welcome further feedback.

To install the new version, get the latest contents of the repo in
https://github.com/robtweed/node-mdb

The two files that have been updated are:

/gtm/zmwire.m (Actually this isn't essential as this new version just
adds optional background logging for assessing GT.M performance with
node-mdb)

/lib/mdb.js

If you're using the node-mdb virtual appliance, copy these to the
following locations:

/mdb/r/zmwire.m
/mdb/mdb.js

That's it - restart node mdb.js and it should now support the
BatchPutAttributes API

BatchDeleteAttributes will follow soon!

I've made some improvements to significantly enhance the performance
of BatchPutAttributes, but it means you should also upgrade the MDB.m
file, ie in addition to the instructions above:

find the file /gtm/MDB.m in the repo

copy it to the node-mdb virtual appliance as /mdb/r/MDB.m

Good idea to delete:

/mdb/o/MDB.o
/mdb/o/zmwire.o


Then restart node-mdb:

cd /mdb
node mdb.js

Basically the enhancement avoids the overheads of excessive numbers of
M/Wire calls and instead executes a function in MDB.m for each item in
the BatchPutAttributes request. Oh to have an in-process API to use
with GT.M instead of the TCP-based M/Wire!

When I add the BatchDeleteAttributes I'll probably upload a new
version of the virtual appliance that includes all the rencent changes
and enhancements.
