vserver/pcplab). Rather then 10000s of fixed node entries in the DB,
create node entries on the fly as needed (assign_wrapper), and then
delete them when they are no longer used (nfree). When new nodes check
in, no longer create all those nodes table entries (utils/newnode.in
and tbsetup/plab/libplab.py.in).

I've added a new library: db/Node.pm which is something I started a
while back, and decided to commit, along with the support for creating
and deleting virtual nodes. CreateVnodes() creates a new set of nodes,
choosing non-conflicting names in the DB, and then immediately
reserves them to the pid/eid specified. DeleteVnodes takes a list of
vnodes and deletes them from nodes,reserved,etc. This library does a
few other things which I am going to be playing with, so you might
want to go read the comment at the top of the file. Feel free to speak
up. CreateVnodes() is from called assign_wrapper when a node type has
the "isdynamic" proper...
