/// get_history_type()) are allowed during that session. Note that this is
/// only possible if there was no preceding session, or if no transaction

/// as a transaction is successfully committed, the Realm contains at least
/// a top array, and from that point on, the history type is generally
/// fixed, although still subject to certain allowed changes (as mentioned
/// below).
///
/// For the sake of backwards compatibility with older Realm files that does
/// not store any history type, the following rule shall apply:
///
/// - If the top array of a Realm file (Group::m_top) does not contain a
/// history type, because it is too short, it shall be understood as
/// implicitely storing the type \ref hist_None.
///
/// Note: In what follows, the meaning of *preceding session* is: The last
/// preceding session that modified the Realm by sucessfully committing a
/// new snapshot.
///
/// Older Realm files do not store any history type, even when they were
/// last used with a history of type \ref hist_OutOfRealm. Howewver, since
/// such histories (\ref hist_OutOfRealm) are placed outside the Realm file,
/// and are transient (recreated at the beginning of each new session), a
/// new session is not obliged to use the same type of history (\ref
/// hist_OutOfRealm). For this reason, and to achieve further backwards
/// compatibility, the following rules are adopted:
///
/// - At the beginning of a new session, if there is no stored history
/// type (no top array), or if the stored history type is \ref
/// hist_None, assume that the history type used during the preceding
/// session was \ref hist_None or \ref hist_OutOfRealm, or that there
/// was no preceding session. In all other cases, assume that the stored
/// history type is the type used during the preceding session.
///
/// - When storing the history type, store \ref hist_None if the history
/// type used in the current session is \ref hist_None or \ref
/// hist_OutOfRealm. In all other cases, store the actual history type
/// used.
///
/// It shall be allowed to switch to a \ref hist_InRealm history if the
/// stored history type is either \ref hist_None or \ref
/// hist_OutOfRealm. Fortunately, this can be done simply by adding a
/// history to the Realm file (of type \ref hist_InRealm), and that is
/// possible because a \ref hist_InRealm history is independent of any
/// history used in a previous session (as long as it was session-confined),
/// or whether any history was used at all. Conversely, if a \ref
/// hist_OutOfRealm history was used in the previous session, then the
/// contents of that history becomes obsolete at the end of the previous
/// session.
///
/// On the other hand, as soon as a history of type \ref hist_InRealm is
/// added to a Realm file, that history type is binding for all subsequent
/// sessions. In theory, this constraint is not necessary, and a later
/// switch to \ref hist_None or \ref hist_OutOfRealm would be possible
/// because of the fact that the contents of the history becomes obsolete at
/// the end of the session, however, because the \ref hist_InRealm history
/// remains in the Realm file, there are practical complications, and for
/// that reason, such switching shall not be supported.
///
/// The \ref hist_Sync history type can only be used if the stored history
/// type is also \ref hist_Sync, or when there is no top array
/// yet. Additionally, when the stored history type is \ref hist_Sync, then
/// all subsequent sesssions must have the same type. These restrictions
/// apply because such a history needs to be maintained persistently across
/// sessions. That is, the contents of such a history is not obsolete at the
/// end of the session, and is in general needed during subsequent sessions.
///
/// In general, if there is no stored history type (no top array) at the
/// beginning of a new session, or if the stored type disagrees with what is
/// returned by get_history_type() (which is possible due to particular
/// allowed changes of history type), the actual history type (as returned
/// by get_history_type()) used during that session, must be stored in the
/// Realm during the first successfully committed transaction of that
/// session, if any are sucessfully committed. But note that there is still
/// no need to expand the top array to store the history type \ref
/// hist_None, due to the rule mentioned above.
///
/// Due to the rules listed above, a new history type only actually needs to
/// be stored when the history type of the session (get_history_type()) is
/// neither \ref hist_None nor \ref hist_OutOfRealm, and only when that
/// differs from the stored history type, or if there is no top array at the
