//! Memory-mapped WAL segment reader for Event Plane catchup.
//!
//! Unlike the standard `WalReader` (which uses sequential `read_exact`),
//! this reader maps sealed WAL segments into the process address space via
//! `mmap`. The kernel manages the page cache — no slab allocator memory is
//! pinned, and mmap reads from page cache don't contend with the Data Plane's
//! O_DIRECT WAL append path (O_DIRECT bypasses page cache entirely).
//!
//! **Tier progression:**
//! 1. In-memory Arc slabs (hot, zero-copy from ring buffer)
//! 2. Mmap WAL segment reads (warm, kernel-managed pages)
//! 3. Shed consumer + cold WAL replay (last resort)
//!
//! This reader is used in tier 2: when the Event Plane enters WAL Catchup
//! Mode, it mmap's the relevant sealed segments and iterates records.
