// blockIter is an iterator over a single block of data.
//
// A blockIter provides an additional guarantee around key stability when a
// block has a restart interval of 1 (i.e. when there is no prefix
// compression). Key stability refers to whether the InternalKey.UserKey bytes
// returned by a positioning call will remain stable after a subsequent
// positioning call. The normal case is that a positioning call will invalidate
// any previously returned InternalKey.UserKey. If a block has a restart
// interval of 1 (no prefix compression), blockIter guarantees that
// InternalKey.UserKey will point to the key as stored in the block itself
// which will remain valid until the blockIter is closed. The key stability
// guarantee is used by the range tombstone and range key code, which knows that
// the respective blocks are always encoded with a restart interval of 1. This
// per-block key stability guarantee is sufficient for range tombstones and
// range deletes as they are always encoded in a single block.
//
// A blockIter also provides a value stability guarantee for range deletions and
// range keys since there is only a single range deletion and range key block
// per sstable and the blockIter will not release the bytes for the block until
// it is closed.
//
// Note on why blockIter knows about lazyValueHandling:
//
// blockIter's positioning functions (that return a LazyValue), are too
// complex to inline even prior to lazyValueHandling. blockIter.Next and
// blockIter.First were by far the cheapest and had costs 195 and 180
// respectively, which exceeds the budget of 80. We initially tried to keep
// the lazyValueHandling logic out of blockIter by wrapping it with a
// lazyValueDataBlockIter. singleLevelIter and twoLevelIter would use this
// wrapped iter. The functions in lazyValueDataBlockIter were simple, in that
// they called the corresponding blockIter func and then decided whether the
// value was in fact in-place (so return immediately) or needed further
// handling. But these also turned out too costly for mid-stack inlining since
// simple calls like the following have a high cost that is barely under the
// budget of 80
//
//	k, v := i.data.SeekGE(key, flags)  // cost 74
//	k, v := i.data.Next()              // cost 72
//
// We have 2 options for minimizing performance regressions:
//   - Include the lazyValueHandling logic in the already non-inlineable
//     blockIter functions: Since most of the time is spent in data block iters,
//     it is acceptable to take the small hit of unnecessary branching (which
//     hopefully branch prediction will predict correctly) for other kinds of
//     blocks.
//   - Duplicate the logic of singleLevelIterator and twoLevelIterator for the
//     v3 sstable and only use the aforementioned lazyValueDataBlockIter for a
//     v3 sstable. We would want to manage these copies via code generation.
//
// We have picked the first option here.
