User-defined event-id

[devurandom]

In Raven 1.7.0 capture is:

raven-clj/src/raven_clj/core.clj

Lines 61 to 73 in 6a5fada

	(defn capture
	"Send a message to a Sentry server.
	event-info is a map that should contain a :message key and optional
	keys found at https://docs.getsentry.com/hosted/clientdev/#building-the-json-packet"
	[dsn event-info]
	(send-packet
	(merge (parse-dsn dsn)
	{:level "error"
	:platform "clojure"
	:server_name (.getHostName (InetAddress/getLocalHost))
	:ts (.getTime (Date.))}
	event-info
	{:event_id (generate-uuid)})))

Raven always overrides event_id. Thus retrying capture (e.g. in case of network errors) would create additional events, making capture not idempotent.

It would we nice if the event_id could be passed in by the caller, so the caller could safely retry capture in case of e.g. network errors.
