hook: add a generic hook right before we commit a transaction
We are adding a 'txnclose' hook that will be run right before a transaction is
closed. Hooks running at that time will have access to the full transaction
content through both 'hookargs' content and on-disk reading. They will be able
to abort the transaction.

transaction: add a validation stage
The 'transaction' object can now be fed a 'validator' function. This function
will be run right before the transaction is closed to validate its content. The
target usage is hooks. The validation function is expected to raise an exception
when it wants to abort the transaction.
This only introduce the idea with a default no-op validator. Actual usage is in
the next changeset.
