Contrary to the assumption that was made by the existing author (me!), `tinycdb` structures are not safe to use concurrently from more than one thread, even for reading, as they hold data related to the current search (current position, mostly). This will have a performance impact for heavy users of the CDB KVS store, so perhaps a follow-up PR might be needed to have a per-thread CDB instance instead. Signed-off-by: Remi Gacogne <remi.gacogne@powerdns.com> (cherry picked from commit 20ae89b)
