db: remove berkeley db / replace with compat until death
db-4.8.30: add compat libs

bee remove db-4.8.26-0.x86_64
bee install db_compat-4.8.30-0

we will miss

/usr/bin/db_archive
/usr/bin/db_checkpoint
/usr/bin/db_deadlock
/usr/bin/db_dump
/usr/bin/db_hotbackup
/usr/bin/db_load
/usr/bin/db_printlog
/usr/bin/db_recover
/usr/bin/db_sql
/usr/bin/db_stat
/usr/bin/db_upgrade
/usr/bin/db_verify

said noone ever. oracle.

our berkeley db is so old, we cannot even find the source packages anymore.
This bee installs v4.8.30 compat libs to replace the installed v.4.8.26 libs.
berkeley db is used by sendmail, but since it is now an oracle product
we don't care anymore.

The current LDAP version doesn't rebuild (because it requires BerkeleyDB) and I don't want to update it now. So I've put the libdb-4.8.so from db-4.8.26-0.x86_64 into /package/ldap/2015-11-21/.compatlibs and added it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH in /package/ldap/2015-11-21/profile.
