plan.rs

//! The logical and physical plans.
//!
//! Invariant: a physical plan is *legal* before it is fast. Every access path
//! this planner produces returns exactly the rows a full scan of the same term
//! would return, and every predicate a path consumes is either fully enforced
//! by the path or left in the residual filter. A predicate that is neither is a
//! wrong answer, so the two lists are built together and the compiler emits
//! whatever is left over.
//!
//! The phase-6 planner is deliberately minimal: FROM terms stay in written
//! order, joins are nested loops, and the only paths are a full scan, a rowid
//! lookup or range, and an index seek over an equality prefix with an optional
//! range on the column after it. Cost is not modelled yet; a path is chosen
//! because it is more selective by construction, not because a number said so.
