> If every member of a persistent cluster crashes then manual intervention is required to identify which store is most up-to-date, so it can be used to recover. We need to provide tools to assist in this identification.
> The cluster can save a config-change counter with each config change (cluster membership change). In recovery, the broker with the highest config-change counter has the best store. However if the last brokers in the cluster crash so close together that none can record a config-change we need an additional decider.
> The store at http://qpidcomponents.org/download.html#persistence maintains a global Record Identifier (RID), a 64 bit value that is incremented for each enqueue and dequeue. If the cluster stores  (config-change,RID) pairs then in recovery we can use actual-RID - RID at config-change as a tiebreaker.
> Proposed change to MessageStore API:
>   /** Returns a monotonically increasing value reflecting the number of changes to the store.
>   * The value can wrap-around to 0.
>   * Stores need not implement this function, they can simply return 0.
>   */
>   uint64_t getChangeCounter();
> The default implementation just returns 0  and the cluster must fall back to relying on config-change counts.
