*************************************************************************
**
** PAGE FORMAT:
**
**   The maximum page size is 65536 bytes.
**
**   Since all records are equal to or larger than 2 bytes in size, and 
**   some space within the page is consumed by the page footer, there must
**   be less than 2^15 records on each page.
**
**   Each page ends with a footer that describes the pages contents. This
**   footer serves as similar purpose to the page header in an SQLite database.
**   A footer is used instead of a header because it makes it easier to
**   populate a new page based on a sorted list of key/value pairs.
**
**   The footer consists of the following values (starting at the end of
**   the page and continuing backwards towards the start). All values are
**   stored as unsigned big-endian integers.
**
**     * Number of records on page (2 bytes).
**     * Flags field (2 bytes).
**     * Left-hand pointer value (8 bytes).
**     * The starting offset of each record (2 bytes per record).
**
**   Records may span pages. Unless it happens to be an exact fit, the part
**   of the final record that starts on page X that does not fit on page X
**   is stored at the start of page (X+1). This means there may be pages where
**   (N==0). And on most pages the first record that starts on the page will
**   not start at byte offset 0. For example:
**
**      aaaaa bbbbb ccc <footer>    cc eeeee fffff g <footer>    gggg....
**
** RECORD FORMAT:
** 
**   The first byte of the record is a flags byte. It is a combination
**   of the following flags (defined in lsmInt.h):
**
**       LSM_START_DELETE
**       LSM_END_DELETE 
**       LSM_POINT_DELETE
**       LSM_INSERT    
**       LSM_SEPARATOR
**       LSM_SYSTEMKEY
**
**   Immediately following the type byte is a pointer to the smallest key 
**   in the next file that is larger than the key in the current record. The 
**   pointer is encoded as a varint. When added to the 32-bit page number 
**   stored in the footer, it is the page number of the page that contains the
**   smallest key in the next sorted file that is larger than this key. 
**
**   Next is the number of bytes in the key, encoded as a varint.
**
**   If the LSM_INSERT flag is set, the number of bytes in the value, as
**   a varint, is next.
**
**   Finally, the blob of data containing the key, and for LSM_INSERT
**   records, the value as well.

/*
** B-tree pages use almost the same format as regular pages. The 
** differences are:
**
**   1. The record format is (usually, see below) as follows:
**
**         + Type byte (always SORTED_SEPARATOR or SORTED_SYSTEM_SEPARATOR),
**         + Absolute pointer value (varint),
**         + Number of bytes in key (varint),
**         + LsmBlob containing key data.
**
**   2. All pointer values are stored as absolute values (not offsets 
**      relative to the footer pointer value).
**
**   3. Each pointer that is part of a record points to a page that 
**      contains keys smaller than the records key (note: not "equal to or
**      smaller than - smaller than").
**
**   4. The pointer in the page footer of a b-tree page points to a page
**      that contains keys equal to or larger than the largest key on the
**      b-tree page.
**
** The reason for having the page footer pointer point to the right-child
** (instead of the left) is that doing things this way makes the 
** mergeWorkerMoveHierarchy() operation less complicated (since the pointers 
** that need to be updated are all stored as fixed-size integers within the 
** page footer, not varints in page records).
**
** Records may not span b-tree pages. If this function is called to add a
** record larger than (page-size / 4) bytes, then a pointer to the indexed
** array page that contains the main record is added to the b-tree instead.
** In this case the record format is:
**
**         + 0x00 byte (1 byte) 
**         + Absolute pointer value (varint),
**         + Absolute page number of page containing key (varint).
**
** See function seekInBtree() for the code that traverses b-tree pages.
