Interesting. If the caller does the odb transaction management
itself by calling begin/end before calling this function and fed two
or more large objects, the original code did the right thing with
.nesting set to 1. In the new code, it still does the right thing
even during the call to index_blob_bulk_checkin we raise .nesting by
one, because the all non-zero .nesting values mean the same thing to
the machinery, thanks to lazy initialization of the .objdir.
So, isn't the comment above the function now less accurate than
before? The caller of this function does not have to do anything
and we do not expect the caller to "ensure a valid transaction" at
all, no?
Thanks.
