BDB and LMDB have always had the ability to have mutable databases (actually
tables) in a single file. So actually there is a "Packages"
(sub-)database/table in data.mdb.
Since 2 of 3 backend now have sub-databases in a single file, its likely time
to do the same with BDB. I've never bothered to do that because people are used
to using "ls -al" to see the relative size of files: with sub-databases you
need to run db_stat or mob_stat to see what is using space.
