Updated patch:
- cleaned up errors in database.*
- cleaned up errors in update.inc


I tested adding files, listing and unlisting files, deleting files,
deleting revisions, deleting nodes, adding files only to certain
revisions, etc.  Deleting revisions does not delete the files, but as
far as I can tell, that's because of http://drupal.org/node/31323.

I think that the files table has too much redundat data in it since we
now have the new revisions system. I think another table to link
revisions to files would be more appropriate.

I agree.  NID and VID should be removed, making a new table containing
FID, NID, and VID with all three as keys.

Here's a patch with the proposed changes.  This is completely untested. 
I don't know SQL very well, so I'm sure I've done something wrong.  I'll
hopefully be able to do testing later today.
