* _bt_findsplitloc() -- find an appropriate place to split a page.
*
* The main goal here is to equalize the free space that will be on each
* split page, *after accounting for the inserted tuple*. (If we fail to
* account for it, we might find ourselves with too little room on the page
* that it needs to go into!)
*
* If the page is the rightmost page on its level, we instead try to arrange
* to leave the left split page fillfactor% full. In this way, when we are
* inserting successively increasing keys (consider sequences, timestamps,
* etc) we will end up with a tree whose pages are about fillfactor% full,
* instead of the 50% full result that we'd get without this special case.
* This is the same as nbtsort.c produces for a newly-created tree. Note
* that leaf and nonleaf pages use different fillfactors. Note also that
* there are a number of further special cases where fillfactor is not
* applied in the standard way.
*
* We are passed the intended insert position of the new tuple, expressed as
* the offsetnumber of the tuple it must go in front of (this could be
* maxoff+1 if the tuple is to go at the end). The new tuple itself is also
* passed, since it's needed to give some weight to how effective suffix
* truncation will be. The implementation picks the split point that
* maximizes the effectiveness of suffix truncation from a small list of
* alternative candidate split points that leave each side of the split with
* about the same share of free space. Suffix truncation is secondary to
* equalizing free space, except in cases with large numbers of duplicates.
* Note that it is always assumed that caller goes on to perform truncation,
* even with pg_upgrade'd indexes where that isn't actually the case
* (!heapkeyspace indexes). See nbtree/README for more information about
* suffix truncation.
*
* We return the index of the first existing tuple that should go on the
* righthand page (which is called firstrightoff), plus a boolean
* indicating whether the new tuple goes on the left or right page. You
* can think of the returned state as a point _between_ two adjacent data
* items (laftleft and firstright data items) on an imaginary version of
* origpage that already includes newitem. The bool is necessary to
* disambiguate the case where firstrightoff == newitemoff (i.e. it is
* sometimes needed to determine if the firstright tuple for the split is
* newitem rather than the tuple from origpage at offset firstrightoff).

* of the now-sorted splits array) fall within the split interval. Split
* interval is applied within _bt_bestsplitloc().

* have leftfree and rightfree values that are acceptably balanced. The final
* split point chosen is the split point with the lowest "penalty" among split
* points in this split interval (unless we change our entire strategy, in
* which case the interval also changes -- see _bt_strategy()).
*
* The "Prefix B-Trees" paper calls split interval sigma l for leaf splits,
* and sigma b for internal ("branch") splits. It's hard to provide a
* theoretical justification for the size of the split interval, though it's
* clear that a small split interval can make tuples on level L+1 much smaller
* on average, without noticeably affecting space utilization on level L.
* (Note that the way that we calculate split interval might need to change if
* suffix truncation is taught to truncate tuples "within" the last
* attribute/datum for data types like text, which is more or less how it is
* assumed to work in the paper.)
