Add capability to run "repository upgrade" operations

    Description

      We've had several times in the past where upgrading from one released version to the next required some non-standard changes to repository content (e.g., registered node types, content). We've run into that again with MODE-2035.

      When a JcrRepository is started, it should be able to determine whether it is the first time the persisted repository is being used with a newer version of ModeShape software, and should be able to run a corresponding "upgrade operation". ModeShape code should be able to contain multiple "upgrade operations" (at most one per release) so that a repository can be upgraded with a jump (e.g., 3.4.0.Final to 3.6.0.Final).

      Note that this needs to work within a cluster (like repository initialization) so that only one process performs the upgrade while the others block until the upgrade process is completed.
