Upon enabling conflict resolution in an already-populated database, the DataStore client cannot connect to the databse because "_version" and "_lastChangedAt" are not populated. If you try to add those fields manually and default them to something, it gives you errors such as:
type CreateEventInput has already a field with name _version
while the datastore client gives errors such as:
`Cannot return null for non-nullable type: 'Int' (/syncEvents/items[23]/_version)
Expected behavior
Upon enabling conflict resolution, the fields for _version and _lastChangedAt should be autopopulated with version 1 and today's date/time.
Reproduction steps
Create a datatable, populate it, enable conflict resolution, attempt to connect a datastore client to it.

Hi @the03ennis when you enable datastore on an existing database, you will run into these issues because those fields are non-nullable. So, the only way around it is to either clear the database or run a script that backfills the existing data with those fields with sensible values.
we do not do this automatically because of the risks of tampering with customer data.
