/**
* @file
* \brief This structure represents a persistent data store, used to store
* outbound and inbound messages, in order to achieve reliable messaging.
*
* The MQTT Client persists QoS1 and QoS2 messages in order to meet the
* assurances of delivery associated with these @ref qos levels. The messages
* are saved in persistent storage
* The type and context of the persistence implementation are specified when
* the MQTT client is created (see MQTTClient_create()). The default
* persistence type (::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_DEFAULT) uses a file system-based
* persistence mechanism. The <i>persistence_context</i> argument passed to
* MQTTClient_create() when using the default peristence is a string
* representing the location of the persistence directory. If the context
* argument is NULL, the working directory will be used.
*
* To use memory-based persistence, an application passes
* ::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_NONE as the <i>persistence_type</i> to
* MQTTClient_create(). This can lead to message loss in certain situations,
* but can be appropriate in some cases (see @ref qos).
*
* Client applications can provide their own persistence mechanism by passing
* ::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_USER as the <i>persistence_type</i>. To implement a
* custom persistence mechanism, the application must pass an initialized
* ::MQTTClient_persistence structure as the <i>persistence_context</i>
* argument to MQTTClient_create().
*
* If the functions defined return an ::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR then the
* state of the persisted data should remain as it was prior to the function
* being called. For example, if Persistence_put() returns
* ::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR, then it is assumed tha tthe persistent store
* does not contain the data that was passed to the function. Similarly, if
* Persistence_remove() returns ::MQTTCLIENT_PERSISTENCE_ERROR then it is
* assumed that the data to be removed is still held in the persistent store.
*
* It is up to the persistence implementation to log any error information that
* may be required to diagnose a persistence mechanism failure.
