//! Mutable run tier — the LSM layer between the skip-list memtable and the
//! immutable `.sr` sorted runs (Phase 11.1).
//!
//! A flush drains the live memtable into this in-memory tier instead of
//! immediately writing a new sorted run. The tier is a [`crate::pma::Pma`] keyed
//! by the composite `(RowId, Epoch)` version key, so it stays sorted (the
//! natural order `RunWriter` consumes) and absorbs further flushes in place with
//! amortized `O(log² n)` inserts — exactly the "cache-oblivious mutable sorted
//! run" described in §2. Only once the tier crosses a byte watermark does it
//! spill to an immutable sorted run on disk, coalescing many small flushes into
//! one larger run (fewer runs ⇒ fewer reader merges ⇒ faster scans).
//!
//! MVCC semantics mirror [`crate::memtable::Memtable`]: every version is kept,
//! keyed by `(RowId, Epoch)`. Product visibility prefers HLC via
//! [`crate::epoch::Snapshot::observes_row`] / [`crate::epoch::Snapshot::version_is_newer`]
//! when versions carry `commit_ts` (P0.5-T3). Epoch-only APIs remain for
//! legacy dual-model call sites. The tier is purely in-memory and rebuilds
//! from WAL replay on reopen, so it carries no on-disk state of its own.
