rbtree: faster augmented rbtree manipulation
Introduce new augmented rbtree APIs that allow minimal recalculation of augmented node information. A new callback is added to the rbtree insertion and erase rebalancing functions, to be called on each tree rotations. Such rotations preserve the subtree's root augmented value, but require recalculation of the one child that was previously located at the subtree root. In the insertion case, the handcoded search phase must be updated to maintain the augmented information on insertion, and then the rbtree coloring/rebalancing algorithms keep it up to date. In the erase case, things are more complicated since it is library code that manipulates the rbtree in order to remove internal nodes. This requires a couple additional callbacks to copy a subtree's augmented value when a new root is stitched in, and to recompute augmented values down the ancestry path when a node is removed from the tree. In order to preserve maximum speed for the non-augmented case, we provide two versions of each tree manipulation function. rb_insert_augmented() is the augmented equivalent of rb_insert_color(), and rb_erase_augmented() is the augmented equivalent of rb_erase().

Support for Augmented rbtrees
-----------------------------
-Augmented rbtree is an rbtree with "some" additional data stored in each node.
-This data can be used to augment some new functionality to rbtree.
-Augmented rbtree is an optional feature built on top of basic rbtree
-infrastructure. An rbtree user who wants this feature will have to call the
-augmentation functions with the user provided augmentation callback
-when inserting and erasing nodes.
+Augmented rbtree is an rbtree with "some" additional data stored in
+each node, where the additional data for node N must be a function of
+the contents of all nodes in the subtree rooted at N. This data can
+be used to augment some new functionality to rbtree. Augmented rbtree
+is an optional feature built on top of basic rbtree infrastructure.
+An rbtree user who wants this feature will have to call the augmentation
+functions with the user provided augmentation callback when inserting
+and erasing nodes.
-On insertion, the user must call rb_augment_insert() once the new node is in
-place. This will cause the augmentation function callback to be called for
-each node between the new node and the root which has been affected by the
-insertion.
+On insertion, the user must update the augmented information on the path
+leading to the inserted node, then call rb_link_node() as usual and
+rb_augment_inserted() instead of the usual rb_insert_color() call.
+If rb_augment_inserted() rebalances the rbtree, it will callback into
+a user provided function to update the augmented information on the
+affected subtrees.
-When erasing a node, the user must call rb_augment_erase_begin() first to
-retrieve the deepest node on the rebalance path. Then, after erasing the
-original node, the user must call rb_augment_erase_end() with the deepest
-node found earlier. This will cause the augmentation function to be called
-for each affected node between the deepest node and the root.
+When erasing a node, the user must call rb_erase_augmented() instead of
+rb_erase(). rb_erase_augmented() calls back into user provided functions
+to updated the augmented information on affected subtrees.
+In both cases, the callbacks are provided through struct rb_augment_callbacks.
+3 callbacks must be defined:
+
+- A propagation callback, which updates the augmented value for a given
+ node and its ancestors, up to a given stop point (or NULL to update
+ all the way to the root).
+
+- A copy callback, which copies the augmented value for a given subtree
+ to a newly assigned subtree root.
+
+- A tree rotation callback, which copies the augmented value for a given
+ subtree to a newly assigned subtree root AND recomputes the augmented
+ information for the former subtree root.
+
+
+Sample usage:
