It used to be that selecting a new unique identifier for an added
rbd device required searching all existing ones to find the highest
id is used.  A recent change made that unnecessary, but made it
so that id's used were monotonically non-decreasing.  It's a bit
more pleasant to have smaller rbd id's though, and this change
makes ids get allocated as they were before--each new id is one more
than the maximum currently in use.

Oh, so ignore my previous comment, though in any case we can still
exhaust the 31 bits:

loop through:

add A
add B
remove A
add C
remove B
add A
remove C
add B

OK with me.  I didn't change the previous behavior.
But I'm fine with making it 64 bits.  I will implement
that and post an update.

So we still need to either use 64 bit counter, or think of a better
scheme to allocate ids. Maybe using some sorted data structure here?
