Writing a key that exceeds the max key length could cause a panic
when reading a tsm file because the 2 bytes used for the key length
would not be enough to represent the actual key length.
The writer will now return an error if when trying to write a key
that is too large.
This has a few changes in it (unfortuantely). The main change is to run compactions
concurrently. While implementing this, a few query and performance bugs showed up that
are also fixed by this commit.
