SQLite3 ships with a set of VFS methods that avoid file locking
entirely, named "unix-none".  There are several methods available to
pick this style of locking.  Since my application is being tested on
both a general-purpose POSIX OS as well as RTEMS, I change the VFS
type in my RTEMS startup code using sqlite3_vfs_find() and
sqlite3_vfs_register().  There is also a "unix-dotfile" method
available, and we may switch over to that for better error-handling
paths.

In the case of the "unix-none" locking mode, you must maintain the
invariant that there is exactly one database connection per database
file in the entire application.  That seems OK to me, so we set the
-DSQLITE_DEFAULT_LOCKING_MODE=1 (EXCLUSIVE) to help enforce it in the
testing environment.

Regarding your memory leak, don't forget to sqlite3_close() the
database.  This must be done even if sqlite3_open() fails.
