/*
  BTree_findRangeEnd -- Find one end, expressed as a bucket and
  position, for a range search.

  If low, return bucket and index of the smallest item >= key,
  otherwise return bucket and index of the largest item <= key.

  If exclude_equal, exact matches aren't acceptable; if one is found,
  move right if low, or left if !low (this is for range searches exclusive
  of an endpoint).

  Return:
  -1      Error; offset and bucket unchanged
  0      Not found; offset and bucket unchanged
  1      Correct bucket and offset stored; the caller owns a new reference
  to the bucket.

  Internal:
  We do binary searches in BTree nodes downward, at each step following
  C(i) where K(i) <= key < K(i+1).  As always, K(i) <= C(i) < K(i+1) too.
  (See Maintainer.txt for the meaning of that notation.)  That eventually
  leads to a bucket where we do Bucket_findRangeEnd.  That usually works,
  but there are two cases where it can fail to find the correct answer:

  1. On a low search, we find a bucket with keys >= K(i), but that doesn't
  imply there are keys in the bucket >= key.  For example, suppose
  a bucket has keys in 1..100, its successor's keys are in 200..300, and
  we're doing a low search on 150.  We'll end up in the first bucket,
  but there are no keys >= 150 in it.  K(i+1) > key, though, and all
  the keys in C(i+1) >= K(i+1) > key, so the first key in the next
  bucket (if any) is the correct result.  This is easy to find by
  following the bucket 'next' pointer.

  2. On a high search, again that the keys in the bucket are >= K(i)
  doesn't imply that any key in the bucket is <= key, but it's harder
  for this to fail (and an earlier version of this routine didn't
  catch it):  if K(i) itself is in the bucket, it works (then
  K(i) <= key is *a* key in the bucket that's in the desired range).
  But when keys get deleted from buckets, they aren't also deleted from
  BTree nodes, so there's no guarantee that K(i) is in the bucket.
  For example, delete the smallest key S from some bucket, and S
  remains in the interior BTree nodes.  Do a high search for S, and
  the BTree nodes direct the search to the bucket S used to be in,
  but all keys remaining in that bucket are > S.  The largest key in
  the *preceding* bucket (if any) is < K(i), though, and K(i) <= key,
  so the largest key in the preceding bucket is < key and so is the
  proper result.

  This is harder to get at efficiently, as buckets are linked only in
  the increasing direction.  While we're searching downward,
  deepest_smaller is set to the  node deepest in the tree where
  we *could* have gone to the left of C(i).  The rightmost bucket in
  deepest_smaller's subtree is the bucket preceding the bucket we find
  at first.  This is clumsy to get at, but efficient.
