Summary:
Cockroachdb exposed this bug in #1778. The bug happens when a compaction's output files are ended due to exceeding max_compaction_bytes. In that case we weren't taking into account the next file's start key when deciding how far to extend the current file's max_key. This caused the non-overlapping key-range invariant to be violated.
Note this was correctly handled for the usual case of cutting compaction output, which is file size exceeding max_output_file_size. I am not sure why these are two separate code paths, but we can consider refactoring it to prevent such errors in the future.
