//! B+tree implementation.
//!
//!
//! Tree implements the B+tree. It provides search, insert, and delete
//! operations on the tree structure. The tree uses latch-coupling for
//! concurrent access: when traversing down the tree, the parent latch
//! is released after the child latch is acquired.
//!
//! # Architecture
//!
//! The tree has a hierarchical structure:
//! - Internal Nodes (IN) at levels 2 and above
//! - Bottom Internal Nodes (BIN) at level 1
//! - Leaf Nodes (LN) containing actual data
//!
//! # Locking Strategy
//!
//! - Root latch protects the root pointer itself
//! - Each node has its own latch for concurrent access
//! - Search uses latch-coupling: acquire child, release parent
//! - Modifications may require exclusive latches
