\class    genie::GHepRecordHistory

\brief    Holds the history of the GHEP event record as it being modified by
          the processing steps of an event generation thread.
          The event record history can be used to step back in the generation
          sequence if a processing step is to be re-run (this the GENIE event
          generation framework equivalent of an 'Undo')
