+/* sqlite3_rekey 
+** Given a database, this will reencrypt the database using a new key.
+** There are two possible modes of operation. The first is rekeying
+** an existing database that was not previously encrypted. The second
+** is to change the key on an existing database.
+** 
+** The proposed logic for this function follows:
+** 1. Determine if there is already a key present
+** 2. If there is NOT already a key present, create one and attach a codec (key would be null)
+** 3. Initialize a ctx->new_key parameter of the codec
+** 3. Create a transaction on the database
+** 4. Iterate through each page, reading it and then writing it.
+** 5. If that goes ok then commit and put ctx->new_key into ctx->key
+**
+** Note: this will require modifications to the sqlite3Codec to support new_key
+**
