Ok, here is another try.  This patch includes both the Xid cache
rewrite, source documentation (removed the big comment in xact.c and
added a README file), htup.h comments updated, and some user
documentation.

BTW, the overflow bit is certainly a better approach than the negative
cache.  I am not sure about locking w.r.t. the XidCache though.

Please take a look at it.
