[PATCH v12 16/41] refs.c: add transaction.status and track OPEN/CLOSED/ERROR

+ * OPEN:   The transaction is in a valid state and can accept new updates.
+ *         An OPEN transaction can be committed.
+ * CLOSED: If an open transaction is successfully committed the state will
+ *         change to CLOSED. No further changes can be made to a CLOSED
+ *         transaction.
+ *         CLOSED means that all updates have been successfully committed and
+ *         the only thing that remains is to free the completed transaction.
+ * ERROR:  The transaction has failed and is no longer committable.
+ *         Eventhough the transaction can no longer be committed it is still
+ *         possible to add additional updates to the transaction. The reason
+ *         for this is to allow a caller to continue trying more updates
+ *         so that a caller can report a list of ALL updates that would fail
+ *         instead of just the first update that fails.
+ *         An ERRORed transaction can not be committed and must be rolled
+ *         back using transaction_free.
