In a case where one pounds on a single kvp in a KVP_AT_BUCKET_LEVEL
table, the code would sporadically return a transitional value (junk)
from a half-deleted kvp. At most, 64-bits worth of the kvp will be
written atomically, so using memset(...) to smear 0xFF's across a kvp
to free it left a lot to be desired.
Performance impact: very mild positive, thanks to FC for doing a
multi-thread host stack perf/scale test.
Added an ASSERT to catch attempts to add a (key,value) pair which
contains the magic "free kvp" value.
Type: fix
