// Class CJoinGroup has a record per LHS row, plus (if preserving grouping) a 'head of group' record
// It gathers all the corresponding RHS rows, keeping track of how may slave transactions are pending in endMarkersPending
// If preserving groups, the 'head of group' record keeps track of how many LHS records in the group are still incomplete.
// CJoinGroup records are allocated out of the Roxie row memory manager by overloading operator new, so that they are included in the 
// per-query limits etc (Note that the pointer array block is not though).
// Because of that, the exact size is significant - especially whether fit just under or just over a chunking threshold...
//
// There are two phases to the life of a JoinGroup - it is created by the puller thread that is also firing off slave requests
// notePending will be called once for every slave request. Puller thread calls noteEndReceived(0) once when done - this corresponds to the
// initial count when created.
// Slave replies and are noted by the consumer thread calling addRightMatch() and noteEndReceived(n).
// Once endMarkersPending reaches 0, JoinGroup is complete. Last thread to call noteEndReceived will process the rows and destroy the group.
// There is no need for a critsec because although multiple threads will access at different times, only the consumer thread will
// access any modifiable member variables while endMarkersPending != 0 (i.e. complete() is false). Once complete returns true there is a single
// remaining reference and the JoinGroup will be processed and destroyed.
