[Metakit] multiple readers/multiple writers

[Brian Kelley]

If you are threading with python, you can simply

st = metakit.storage(...)

and share st between threads.  This doesn't work between processes,
but the GIL (global interpreter lock) will automagically lock for you.
 This really means that only one python thread will run at a time when
you are doing metakit stuff, but I haven't found this to be too big of
an issue.
