    Base class for measurement plugins.

    Notes
    -----
    Relative execution orders are defined by a series of named constants
    defined in this class: plugins with a lower execution number are run
    first.
 
    This approach was chosen instead of a full graph-based analysis of
    dependencies because algorithm dependencies are usually both quite simple
    and entirely substitutable: an algorithm that requires a centroid can
    typically make use of any centroid algorithms outputs.  That makes it
    relatively easy to figure out the correct value to use for any particular
    algorithm.

        `BasePlugin.fail` will be called repeatedly with all the records that
        were being measured.
 
        If the exception is an `MeasurementError`, it will be passed as the
        error argument; in all other cases the error argument will be `None`,
