Okay, you track inode to detect rebuilds, that will cover the rebuilddb case but not the id wraparound one which ultimately needs to be handled anyway.

And yeah I know AUTOINCREMENT, but it comes with a cost.

BTW just realized that this change actually doesn't really change anything at all in the sqlite backend: it recycles the topmost ids as it is now, because it just does ""SELECT MAX(hnum)" + 1 instead of keeping a permanent record like the other backends do.

The real question is of course the wraparound and what to do about it - outsourcing to sqlite doesn't help a bit as it'll only wrap around at INT64_MAX which is 31 bits beyond our reach.
