In #105231, the order returned by the predecessor history function was inadvertently changed: instead of returning a slice from oldest to newest release, the order was instead reversed (newest to oldest).
That breaks the (currently only) caller of
PredecessorHistory
with a parameter greater than 1:tpcc/mixed-headroom/multiple-upgrades
. As a result, it would attempt an impossible upgrade path from a 23.1 release to a 22.2 release.This commit fixes the API by returning the release histories from oldest to newest as expected, as this is the more sensible API.
Fixes: #106716
Release note: None
