I took a stab, see attached.

The ideas were:

* centralize reading the config (avoid code duplication)
* open the DB as late as possible (but don't bother closing it once it's opened)
* write to the DB only after finishing the FS commit (thus enabling commit_body()
  to be run outside the sqlite txn)

It passes tests (C, basic, and commit) (but I'm positive I could have bugs
that the tests wouldn't catch).
