PartitioningFacility (Rhino 3.0 Resource Adaptor API)

```
public interface PartitioningFacility
```
Rhino extension facility that allows a resource adaptor to obtain the partition key associated with a calling SBB’s transaction.

If an SBB requests that a resource adaptor create an activity, and the resource adaptor generates that activity with an activity handle implementing PartitionedActivityHandle whose PartitionedActivityHandle.getPartitionKey() method returns the same value as getTransactionPartitionKey(), then state for that newly created activity will be aggregated where possible with other session-related state.
