/// Map record number monotonically into `[min, max]` with deterministic jitter.
///
/// `step = max(1, range / 1_000_000)` — derived from range, independent of `-n`.
/// 1M records = full coverage of range. Less = partial. More = clamp at boundary.
///
/// Jitter is positive-only `[0, step/4)` — guarantees strict monotonicity.
/// Clamp at min/max — no wrap-around.
///
/// Integer example: `asc:1..100` → step=1 → 1, 2, 3, ..., 100, 100, 100
/// Timestamp example: `asc` with 1-year range → step=31s → 31s between records
