Returns a type-specific data store based on the given unique ID.
If a data store by that ID does not already exist, it should be created now, stored for
later access, and returned. Otherwise, if there is already a data store by that ID, it should
be returned. The DataStore#getId() must match the id parameter from this
method.
The ID must be at least 1 and at most 30 characters long, and must contain only alphanumeric
or underscore characters.
