Okay. Branch 1305-fix-isolate-db-crashes is ready to merge from my perspective.
Review welcome.

> COUCHDB-1050 shows how an error in a db process can cause unexpected 'EXIT'
> messages to reach couch_server. These messages cause couch_server to restart,
> forcing all open databases to close, which has nasty effects like killing
> replications and index generation in unrelated databases. I suggest we use
> the couch_dbs_by_pid table to swallow the error, cleanup the ETS tables, log
> a message and continue. If a match isn't found in the table then the current
> unexpected message crash should be preserved.
