code: def modelsGetUpdateCounters(self, jobID):
      
      rows = self._getMatchingRowsWithRetries(
        self._models, {'job_id' : jobID},
        [self._models.pubToDBNameDict[f]
         for f in self._models.getUpdateCountersNamedTuple._fields])

      return [self._models.getUpdateCountersNamedTuple._make(r) for r in rows]
docs: Return info on all of the models that are in already in the models
      table for a given job. For each model, this returns a tuple
      containing: (modelID, updateCounter).
  
      Note that we don't return the results for all models, since the results
      string could be quite large. The information we are returning is
      just 2 integer fields.
  
      Parameters:
      ----------------------------------------------------------------
      jobID:      jobID to query
      retval:     (possibly empty) list of tuples. Each tuple contains:
                    (modelID, updateCounter)
