Generation numbers are only monotonically increasing and not necessarily
[0, 1, 2, ...]
(FYI: metageneration numbers are): example here.Remove code assuming the generation number of the new version after writing a checkpoint. Practically speaking, if there is no race condition, a client's knowledge about the checkpoint generation will match the truth in GCS, since the client always calls ReadCheckpoint before WriteCheckpoint. If there is a race condition, then a client's knowledge about the checkpoint generation will be out of date, and the write will fail because the precondition of the generation number will not match.
