Option to disable leveldb's recovery log #225

THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS FEATURE. IT CAN EASILY LEAD TO DATA LOSS.

This feature is intended for use with certain internal, non-durable cache scenarios. The data placed into a leveldb database with this option set is vulnerable to loss if system dies or program aborts/segfaults.
