 * The scankey we get has the compare function stored in the procedure
 * entry of each data struct.  We invoke this regproc to do the
 * comparison for every key in the scankey.
 *
 * On a leaf page, _bt_binsrch() returns the OffsetNumber of the first
 * key >= given scankey.  (NOTE: in particular, this means it is possible
 * to return a value 1 greater than the number of keys on the page,
 * if the scankey is > all keys on the page.)
 *
 * On an internal (non-leaf) page, _bt_binsrch() returns the OffsetNumber
 * of the last key < given scankey.  (Since _bt_compare treats the first
 * data key of such a page as minus infinity, there will be at least one
 * key < scankey, so the result always points at one of the keys on the
 * page.)  This key indicates the right place to descend to be sure we
 * find all leaf keys >= given scankey.
 *
 * This procedure is not responsible for walking right, it just examines
 * the given page.	_bt_binsrch() has no lock or refcount side effects
 * on the buffer.
