Change Description
When in heap or locked mapping mode, pinnable_mapped_file initially maps the database so that it can copy its contents in to the heap/locked memory. Then on shutdown it copies the heap/locked memory back to that mapped file.
This means that during execution in heap/locked mode the process actually shows double memory usage as expected: once for the mapped file that is kept around, and once for the heap/locked memory.
This change closes the mapping after its contents have been copied to the heap/locked memory. It then reopens the mapping on shutdown so that the contents can be copied back. So now during execution the database is only consuming the expected memory
Goes with EOSIO/chainbase#47
Also synced a low priority change that went in chainbase renaming a variable that was causing grief on win32 builds
