public static JobLeaseOwner NewAttempt()

Returns

JobLeaseOwner

A lease owner nothing else will produce.

Remarks

A random identity rather than a host name and a counter, because two replicas of one deployment are the case the compare-and-set exists for and neither can see what the other allocated. It is not a security token, so the ordinary UUID generator is what this needs.
