Bugfix for issue 33; reduce lock contention in Get(), parallel benchm…

…arks.

- Fix for issue 33 (non-null-terminated result from
  leveldb_property_value())

- Support for running multiple instances of a benchmark in parallel.

- Reduce lock contention on Get():
  (1) Do not hold the lock while searching memtables.
  (2) Shard block and table caches 16-ways.

  Benchmark for evaluating this change:
  $ db_bench --benchmarks=fillseq1,readrandom --threads=$n
  (fillseq1 is a small hack to make sure fillseq runs once regardless
  of number of threads specified on the command line).
