 * To allow the various functions called here to cache lookups of range
 * datatype information, we use a trick: we pass them the FmgrInfo struct
 * for the GiST consistent function.  This relies on the knowledge that
 * none of them consult FmgrInfo for anything but fn_extra, and that they
 * all use fn_extra the same way, i.e. as a pointer to the typcache entry
 * for the range data type.  Since the FmgrInfo is long-lived (it's actually
 * part of the relcache entry for the index, typically) this essentially
 * eliminates lookup overhead during operations on a GiST range index.

 * Double sorting split algorithm.
 *
 * The algorithm considers dividing ranges into two groups. The first (left)
 * group contains general left bound. The second (right) group contains
 * general right bound. The challenge is to find upper bound of left group
 * and lower bound of right group so that overlap of groups is minimal and
 * ratio of distribution is acceptable. Algorithm finds for each lower bound of
 * right group minimal upper bound of left group, and for each upper bound of
 * left group maximal lower bound of right group. For each found pair
 * range_gist_consider_split considers replacement of currently selected
 * split with the new one.
 *
 * After that, all the entries are divided into three groups:
 * 1) Entries which should be placed to the left group
 * 2) Entries which should be placed to the right group
 * 3) "Common entries" which can be placed to either group without affecting
 *	  amount of overlap.
 *
 * The common ranges are distributed by difference of distance from lower
 * bound of common range to lower bound of right group and distance from upper
 * bound of common range to upper bound of left group.
 *
 * For details see:
 * "A new double sorting-based node splitting algorithm for R-tree",
