#' @title Export Next Record Name or Rename a Record
#' 
#' @description These methods enable the user to get the next record name
#'   (when auto numbering is enabled) or rename and existing record.
#'   
#' @inheritParams common-rcon-arg
#' @inheritParams common-dot-args
#' @inheritParams common-api-args
#' @param record_name `character(1)` or `integerish(1)`. 
#'   The name of an existing record in the project. 
#' @param new_record_name `character(1)` or `integerish(1)`. 
#'   The new name to give to the record. 
#' @param arm `character(1)` or `NULL`, an optional arm number. 
#'   If `NULL`, then all records with same name across all arms on 
#'   which it exists (if longitudinal with multiple arms) will be 
#'   renamed to new record name, otherwise it will rename the record 
#'   only in the specified arm.
#'   
#' @return
#' `exportNextRecordName` returns an integerish value. The value is
#'   determined by looking up the highest record ID number in the 
#'   project and incrementing it by 1. 
#'
#' `renameRecord` return a logical value that indicates if the 
#'   operation was successful.
