* Describes a transaction isolation level. Transaction levels, in order from
* lowest to highest are:

* <ul>
* <li>{@link #READ_UNCOMMITTED}
* <li>{@link #READ_COMMITTED}
* <li>{@link #REPEATABLE_READ}
* <li>{@link #SNAPSHOT}
* <li>{@link #SERIALIZABLE}
* </ul>
*
* A transaction's isolation level is usually {@code READ_COMMITTED} or
* {@code REPEATABLE_READ} by default. Forcing a lower level, like
* {@code READ_COMMITTED}, is useful when performing a long cursor
* iteration. It releases locks during iteration rather than holding on to them
* until the transaction exits.
*
* <p>{@code SNAPSHOT} isolation is special in that it uses multiversion
* concurrency control (MVCC). A commit may fail with an {@link
* OptimisticLockException}. Few repositories are expected to support this
* level, however.
