Hi Qin,

after thinking a little bit on that maybe we can use the higher byte of the
rank for that. that is  rank>>8, the higher byte is a monotonically
increasing counter. As each hop is <<8 (due to minhopRankIncrease) we can
have the sense of higher join priority as higher the rank.

In addition having if we have the limitation of 0x3F, this means that we
will support Join priorities up to 0x3F that translated to ranks are
0x3F<<8 (big number) ..

just thoughts...
