Add _txlock=immediate so batch writes wait instead of dropping (closes #25)

Batch flush paths read before they write, so a deferred transaction starts
as a reader and must upgrade to the write lock on its first INSERT/UPDATE.
When the background maintainer holds the write lock for a WAL checkpoint,
that upgrade fails immediately with "database is locked" and the busy
timeout does not apply, so the batch is dropped. Adding _txlock=immediate
to the DSN makes every transaction take the write lock at BEGIN, so it
waits up to busy_timeout instead of failing.

A regression test drives batch writes against a running checkpoint loop and
fails with "database is locked" without the change.
