11/// A single change event emitted by [`Tree::scan_since_seqno`](crate::Tree::scan_since_seqno).
12///
13/// Each event carries the sequence number at which the change was committed.
14/// Events are emitted in increasing seqno order, so a downstream consumer
15/// (replica, Kafka connector, Debezium-style pipeline) can replay them in
16/// order to reconstruct the source's history. Superseded versions are **not**
17/// collapsed: a key updated three times after the target seqno yields three
18/// events, mirroring the source's full change history rather than just its
19/// latest visible state.
20///
21/// # Replay semantics
22///
23/// Applying events in seqno order reconstructs the state delta. An
24/// `Insert(K, V1, s=150)` followed by a `PointTombstone(K, s=200)` means "K was
25/// inserted with V1 at 150, then deleted at 200" — the net effect on a replica
26/// starting before 150 is "create K with V1, then delete K", matching the
27/// source.
28///
29/// # Merge operands
30///
31/// A store using a [`MergeOperator`](crate::MergeOperator) records partial
32/// updates as [`MergeOperand`](Self::MergeOperand) events rather than resolved
33/// values: the consumer applies the same merge operator to reproduce the
34/// source's state. Emitting a merge as an `Insert` would make a replica
35/// overwrite instead of merge, diverging from the source; resolving the merge
36/// chain here would require reading the full base+operand history and defeat
37/// the block-skip optimization, so the raw operand is surfaced instead.
38///
39/// # KV-separated (blob) values
40///
41/// When a value is stored out-of-line in a blob file, the blob is resolved and
42/// the real value is carried in the [`Insert`](Self::Insert) event, so the
43/// consumer never needs access to the source's blob files to replicate.
