Provide an API for the Calling Application to set a database table life-span priority on specific database tables.
When the upper limit on the database size is reached (see Bug #2673), the Data Manager Library will free up space by reducing the number of cached data tables in the database based on a "least used" removal algorithm. However, the Calling Application should be able to protect specific tables from removal by setting them as high priority. This is a boolean setting, either a table is protected from removal or it isn't.
This task supports Use Case #6 in the Data Manager Library UML documentation.
