obj-core 1.1.0

//! B+tree delete path with merge / borrow rebalancing.
//!
//! Mirrors `insert.rs`: every node touched is rewritten to a fresh
//! page; pre-delete pages enter the freelist only after the new
//! root is staged. The caller still owns the commit boundary —
//! `BTree::delete` does NOT call `Pager::commit`.
//!
//! # Underflow policy
//!
//! A non-root node is "underflowing" when its post-delete occupied
//! byte count falls below `MIN_OCCUPIED_BYTES = PAYLOAD_BYTES / 2`.
//! At underflow:
//! - If a sibling is rich enough that **moving one slot from it**
//!   keeps both halves above the threshold, borrow.
//! - Otherwise merge with the sibling. The two halves combine into
//!   a single page; the separator pivot in the parent is removed
//!   (leaf merge) or absorbed (internal merge).
//!
//! Root collapse: an internal root with exactly one child (zero
//! pivots) is replaced by its child. A leaf root with zero slots
//! is allowed and is the bootstrap "empty tree" state.
//!
//! # Power-of-ten posture
//!
//! - **Rule 1.** Iterative descent + iterative bubble-up; no
//!   recursion.
//! - **Rule 2.** Every loop is bounded by `MAX_BTREE_DEPTH` or a
//!   node's slot count.
//! - **Rule 5.** `validate_node` runs on every encoded node.

///
/// 1. **Merge declines**: combined `occupied_bytes` of the child, the
///    sibling, and (for internal nodes) the descended separator pivot
///    would exceed `PAYLOAD_BYTES` — i.e. the sibling is too FULL to
///    absorb the child; and
/// 2. **Borrow declines**: any of — the sibling cannot spare a slot and
///    stay `>= MIN_OCCUPIED_BYTES` ([`sibling_has_spare`]); moving its
///    boundary slot up would install a separator pivot LARGER than the
///    one it replaces and push the PARENT past `PAYLOAD_BYTES`
///    ([`parent_fits_after_pivot_swap`]) — the "borrow-grows-parent"
///    hazard the #29 large-key oracle pinned; or (issue #137) the
///    single borrowed slot is large enough that the receiving child
///    would itself exceed `PAYLOAD_BYTES` ([`child_fits_after_borrow`]).
///
/// When that conjunction holds we deliberately leave the child below
/// `MIN_OCCUPIED_BYTES`. This is sound:
///
/// - **Correctness is preserved.** The child still holds every key it
///   should; the parent's pivots and child pointers stay consistent;
///   `get` / range-scan / subsequent `insert` and `delete` all remain
///   correct. The B+tree oracle (`btree_oracle`, `index_oracle`) only
///   observes externally-visible state and would not — and must not —
///   change. The ONLY degraded property is the *minimum-occupancy*
///   guarantee on that one node.
/// - **The degradation is bounded.** At most one node per
///   delete-rebalance bubble-up frame can be left underflowing, and a
///   later `insert` into that subtree, or a `delete` that makes a
///   sibling spare a slot, repairs the shape. It does not compound
///   into emptiness: a node that reaches zero slots is handled by the
///   merge path (its sibling can always absorb a zero-occupancy node),
///   and the root-collapse path handles a single-child root.
///
/// Implementing a full cascade here (recursively splitting the
/// over-full sibling, or borrow-then-rebalance-the-parent) was
/// considered and rejected for this change: it is materially more
/// invasive and risks a B-tree CORRECTNESS regression, which is a far
/// worse failure mode than a transient occupancy dip. The
/// `delete_rebalance_residual_underflow_is_bounded_and_correct` test
/// makes the degradation visible and asserts it stays bounded.
