Thomas Hellstrom 08295b3b5b locking: Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexes 
The current Wound-Wait mutex algorithm is actually not Wound-Wait but
Wait-Die. Implement also Wound-Wait as a per-ww-class choice. Wound-Wait
is, contrary to Wait-Die a preemptive algorithm and is known to generate
fewer backoffs. Testing reveals that this is true if the
number of simultaneous contending transactions is small.
As the number of simultaneous contending threads increases, Wait-Wound
becomes inferior to Wait-Die in terms of elapsed time.
Possibly due to the larger number of held locks of sleeping transactions.

Update documentation and callers.

tag patch-18-06-15

Each thread runs 100000 batches of lock / unlock 800 ww mutexes randomly
chosen out of 100000. Four core Intel x86_64:

Algorithm    #threads       Rollbacks  time
Wound-Wait   4              ~100       ~17s.
Wait-Die     4              ~150000    ~19s.
Wound-Wait   16             ~360000    ~109s.
Wait-Die     16             ~450000    ~82s.
