Description

A consumer remove info contains the lastDeliveredSequenceId the consumer has delivered. In the absence of this information, for example when the consumer does a system exit or the connection drops - this information will be lost. The broker should increment redelivery to reflect the delivery attempt.
Currently lastDeliveredSequenceId==0 indicates missing information but that ignores the fact that the messageid broker sequence could be 0. A value of -1 should indicate nothing was delivered, > -1 the last sequence and from the broker side, -2 indicating that the broker provided the information and redelivery should be incremented. ie; -2 covers the client abort case.
