Yes, but this is only because we _have_ to use callbacks in
wal engine for both sync\async writes. The general architecture
is that - sync writes do _not_have_ to use callbacks.

The use of callback in wal is transparent to the caller. At
least I tried to make it so.

Because of wal and async engine in it :(

Look the whole idea is the following:

 - journal_write_async always use write_async_cb
 - journal_write should not use async write (or
   it could but transparently)
 - journal_write can complete transaction by self,
   for this sake it tests for TXN_IS_DONE bit and
   doesn't call for txn_complete if bit is set.

You know, I think we're in good shape right now
and can cleanup the series on top maybe?

Letme think about it. But I would prefer to make it on top.
