ARSN-403 add tests

- For backward compatibility (if isNull is undefined), add the nullVersionId field to the master update. The nullVersionId is needed for listing, retrieving, and deleting null versions.

- For the new null key implementation (if isNull is defined): add the isNull2 field and set it to true to specify that the new version is null AND has been put with a Cloudserver handling null keys (i.e., supporting S3C-7352).

- Manage scenarios in which a version is marked with the isNull attribute set to true, but without a version ID. This happens after BackbeatClient.putMetadata() is applied to a standalone null master.

+# DelimiterVersions
+
+The DelimiterVersions class handles raw listings from the database of a
+versioned or non-versioned bucket with an optional delimiter, and
+fills in a curated listing with "Versions" and "CommonPrefixes" as a
+result.
+
+## Expected Behavior
+
+- lists individual distinct versions of versioned buckets
+
+- only lists keys belonging to the given **prefix** (if provided)
+
+- groups listed keys that have a common prefix ending with a delimiter
+  inside CommonPrefixes
+
+- can take a **keyMarker** and optionally a **versionIdMarker** to
+  list from a specific key or version
+
+- can take a **maxKeys** parameter to limit how many keys can be returned
+
+- skips internal keys like replay keys
+
+## State Chart
+
+- States with grey background are *Idle* states, which are waiting for
+  a new listing key
+
+- States with blue background are *Processing* states, which are
+  actively processing a new listing key passed by the filter()
+  function

+ * Cache of listing "gaps" i.e. ranges of keys that can be skipped
+ * over during listing (because they only contain delete markers as
+ * latest versions).
+ *
+ * Typically, a single GapCache instance would be attached to a raft session.
+ *
+ * The API usage is as follows:
+ *
+ * - Initialize a GapCache instance by calling start() (this starts an internal timer)
+ *
+ * - Insert a gap or update an existing one via setGap()
+ *
+ * - Lookup existing gaps via lookupGap()
+ *
+ * - Invalidate gaps that overlap a specific set of keys via removeOverlappingGaps()
+ *
+ * - Shut down a GapCache instance by calling stop() (this stops the internal timer)
+ *
+ * Gaps inserted via setGap() are not exposed immediately to lookupGap(), but only:
+ *
+ * - after a certain delay always larger than 'exposureDelayMs' and usually shorter
+ *   than twice this value (but might be slightly longer in rare cases)
+ *
+ * - and only if they haven't been invalidated by a recent call to removeOverlappingGaps()
+ *
+ * This ensures atomicity between gap creation and invalidation from updates under
+ * the condition that a gap is created from first key to last key within the time defined
+ * by 'exposureDelayMs'.
+ *
+ * The implementation is based on two extra temporary "update sets" on top of the main
+ * exposed gap set, one called "staging" and the other "frozen", each containing a
+ * temporary updated gap set and a list of updated keys to invalidate gaps with (coming
+ * from calls to removeOverlappingGaps()). Every "exposureDelayMs" milliseconds, the frozen
+ * gaps are invalidated by all key updates coming from either of the "staging" or "frozen"
+ * update set, then merged into the exposed gaps set, after which the staging updates become
+ * the frozen updates and won't receive any new gap until the next cycle.

+/**
+ * Remote procedure calls support between cluster workers.
+ *
+ * When using the cluster module, new processes are forked and are
+ * dispatched workloads, usually HTTP requests. The ClusterRPC module
+ * implements a RPC system to send commands to all cluster worker
+ * processes at once from any particular worker, and retrieve their
+ * individual command results, like a distributed map operation.
+ *
+ * The existing nodejs cluster IPC channel is setup from the primary
+ * to each worker, but not between workers, so there has to be a hop
+ * by the primary.
+ *
+ * How a command is treated:
+ *
+ * - a worker sends a command message to the primary
+ *
+ * - the primary then forwards that command to each existing worker
+ *   (including the requestor)
+ *
+ * - each worker then executes the command and returns a result or an
+ *   error
+ *
+ * - the primary gathers all workers results into an array
+ *
+ * - finally, the primary dispatches the results array to the original
+ *   requesting worker
+ *
+ *
+ * Limitations:
+ *
+ * - The command payload must be serializable, which means that:
+ *   - it should not contain circular references
+ *   - it should be of a reasonable size to be sent in a single RPC message
+ *
+ * - The "toWorkers" parameter of value "*" targets the set of workers
+ *   that are available at the time the command is dispatched. Any new
+ *   worker spawned after the command has been dispatched for
+ *   processing, but before the command completes, don't execute
+ *   the command and hence are not part of the results array.
+ *
+ *
+ * To set it up:
