 Stored Transaction JSON Format

################################

The stored transaction format is considered unstable and may change in an

incompatible way at any time. It will work if the same version of dnf is used

to store and replay (or between versions as long as it stays the same).

    compatibility (old dnf can work with new transaction JSON).
