  // target after Seek(). If !Valid() and status().ok() then end of the iterator
  // is reached.
  //
  // Internally, this involves positioning all child iterators at the first key
  // >= target. If range tombstones are present, we apply a similar
  // optimization, cascading seek, as in Pebble
  // (https://github.com/cockroachdb/pebble). Specifically, if there is a range
  // tombstone [start, end) that covers the target user key at level L, then
  // this range tombstone must cover the range [target key, end) in all levels >
  // L. So for all levels > L, we can pretend the target key is `end`. This
  // optimization is applied at each level and hence the name "cascading seek".
  // After a round of (cascading) seeks, the top of the heap is checked to see
  // if it is covered by a range tombstone (see FindNextVisibleKey() for more
  // detail), and advanced if so. The process is repeated until a
  // non-range-deleted key is at the top of the heap, or heap becomes empty.
  //
  // As mentioned in comments above HeapItem, to make the checking of whether
  // top of the heap is covered by some range tombstone efficient, we treat each
  // range deletion [start, end) as two point keys and insert them into the same
  // min/maxHeap_ where point iterators are. The set `active_` tracks the levels
  // that have active range tombstones. If level L is in `active_`, and the
  // point key at top of the heap is from level >= L, then the point key is
  // within the internal key range of the range tombstone that
  // range_tombstone_iters_[L] currently points to. For correctness reasoning,
  // one invariant that Seek() (and every other public APIs Seek*(),
  // Next/Prev()) guarantees is as follows. After Seek(), suppose `k` is the
  // current key of level L's point iterator. Then for each range tombstone
  // iterator at level <= L, it is at or before the first range tombstone with
  // end key > `k`. This ensures that when level L's point iterator reaches top
  // of the heap, `active_` is calculated correctly (it contains the covering
  // range tombstone's level if there is one), since no range tombstone iterator
  // was skipped beyond that point iterator's current key during Seek().
  // Next()/Prev() maintains a stronger version of this invariant where all
  // range tombstone iterators from level <= L are *at* the first range
  // tombstone with end key > `k`.
