Miroslav Bajtoš cf2acb3cd2 Conflict resolution and Access control
Add end-to-end unit-tests verifying enforcement of access control during
conflict resolution.

Implement two facade methods providing REST API for Change methods used
by conflict resolution:

    PersistedModel.findLastChange
    GET /api/{model.pluralName}/{id}/changes/last

    PersistedModel.updateLastChange
    PUT /api/{model.pluralName}/{id}/changes/last

By providing these two methods on PersistedModel, replication users
don't have to expose the Change model via the REST API. What's even
more important, these two methods use the same set of ACL rules
as other (regular) PersistedModel methods.

Rework `Conflict.prototype.changes()` and `Conflict.prototype.resolve()`
to use these new facade methods.

Implement a new method `Conflict.prototype.swapParties()` that provides
better API for the situation when a conflict detected in Remote->Local
replication should be resolved locally (i.e. in the replication target).

Miroslav Bajtoš 63e2f4b134 Improve error handling in replication
Deprecate `Change.handleError`, it was used inconsistenly for a subset
of possible errors only. Rework all `Change` methods to always report
all errors to the caller via the callback.

Rework `PersistedModel` to report change-tracking errors via the
existing method `PersistedModel.handleChangeError`. This method
can be customized on a per-model basis to provide different error
handling.

The default implementation emits `error` event on the model class,
users can attach an event listener that can provide a custom error
handler.

NOTE: Unhandled `error` events crash the application by default.

Miroslav Bajtoš 87940a4b58 Detect 3rd-party changes made during replication
Modify `Change.diff()` to include current data revision in each
delta reported back. The current data revision is stored in
`delta.prev`.

Modify `PersistedModel.bulkUpdate()` to check that the current data
revision matches `delta.prev` and report a conflict if a third party
has modified the database under our hands.

Fix `Change` implementation and tests so that they are no longer
attempting to create instances with duplicate ids.
(This used to work because the memory connector was silently
converting such requests to updateOrCreate/findOrCreate.)

Miroslav Bajtoš 76d9244448 Prevent more kinds of false replication conflicts
Rework the Change model to merge changes made within the same
Checkpoint.

Rework `replicate()` to run multiple iteration until there were no
changes replicated. This ensures that the target model is left in
a clean state with no pending changes associated with the latest
(current) checkpoint.

Miroslav Bajtoš 628e3a30ca Return new checkpoints in callback of replicate()
Extend `PersistedModel.replicate` to pass the newly created checkpoints
as the third callback argument.

The typical usage of these values is to pass them as the `since`
argument of the next `replicate()` call.

    global.since = -1;

    function sync(cb) {
      LocalModel.replicate(
        since,
        RemoteModel,
        function(err, conflicts, cps)
          if (err) return cb(err);
          if (!conflicts.length) {
            since = cps;
            return cb();
          }
          // resolve conflicts and try again
        });
    }

Miroslav Bajtoš 702ecc6f72 Fix change detection & tracking
Add unit-tests to verify that all DAO methods correctly create change
records.

Rework the change detection to use the new operation hooks, this fixes
the bugs where operations like "updateOrCreate" did not update change
records.

Berkeley Martinez 1ee05eb8a7 Deleted instantiation of new Change model.
This PR removes the instantiation of a new change model
as models return from Change.find are already
instances of Change. This solves the duplicate Id issue #649

Miroslav Bajtoš 1fe0110849 Dismantle `lib/models`.
- Move core models `Model` and `PersistedModel` to `lib/`.
 - Move `AccessContext` class to `lib/`, since it is not a model.
 - Move all other built-in models to `common/models`.

This is a preparation for extracting model definitions to JSON files.
By splitting the change into multiple commits, git is able to keep track
of file moves (renames).
