Patch PE80-0812180
------------------

Platforms: All

* During an automatic forward-log file switch it could happen in rare
  cases that transactions were not written to the forward-log (#3694).

  As a consequence, a recovery or replication from this forward-log
  would fail, for example with a message like below:

  recovery failed in action ... page ... not in expected state
  server panic: Fatal problem detected in btree_FWR__verify_page
  Assertion failed: h->lower == data->lower

* A DBGET mode 6 or 16 on an index item could improperly return an
  end-of-chain condition when the last key in the index was deleted
  (#3683).
