Some wishes/loose thoughts about overlay/backend code:

• Remove backends internally, making them like overlays? (RE30)
• Reduce copying of overlay data -op->o_bd->bd_info (RE25?)
• Lose slap_overinst, move its members into BackendInfo.

* Re-factor Bind response handling to behave the same as every other request. (Instead of always deferring SUCCESS result to the frontend.)

* Likewise for Extops.
