Description

If a checkpoint contains an invalid position (for instance not u64) for ingest,
we currently panic.

Ideally we should:

  • log an error
  • repair the checkpoint by removing the corrupted partition
  • start indexing the faulty partition from the beginning.

This is very defensive and hence low priority
