feat!: declare per operation whether the displaced value may be a backward-reference participant - #953
Conversation
Under BackwardReferencesPolicy::Maintain, a DeleteTree whose behavior declares the subtree empty (DontCheckWithNoCleanup) or verifies emptiness at apply time (Error, Skip) removes nothing the batch's own deletes have not already read as an old value, so the full-batch planner and the partial-batch post-apply gate no longer walk those subtrees for backward-reference participants. DeleteChildren removals and tree replacements keep their scan, and the partial-batch observer no longer queues empty trees for scanning. A delete-up-tree chain now costs exactly what it costs under Skip, in full and partial batches alike. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Error and Skip in scan_delete_tree_ops read storage to check emptiness. They avoid participant-scan reads only. State that these behaviors add no participant-scan reads, not that they add no reads of their own.

Add exact-cost cases for Error and Skip.
The cost-accounting policy requires coverage for state-modifying behavior. The scan predicate excludes DeleteTree operations with Error and Skip, but this test covers only DontCheckWithNoCleanup. Add full- and partial-batch cases for both variants. Assert equal Maintain and Skip costs and root hashes.

…kward-reference participant
Replace the batch-level BackwardReferencesPolicy (Maintain / Skip) with a
per-operation declaration, DisplacedValue::{MayBeParticipant,
NotParticipant}, carried by InsertOptions, DeleteOptions, ClearOptions and
every QualifiedGroveDbOp (with_displaced_value, MayBeParticipant by
default). BatchApplyOptions carries no policy any more.
V4 keeps one prepared write path for both declarations: the displaced
value is read for the write anyway, so MayBeParticipant maintains a
participant it finds and NotParticipant refuses the operation before
anything commits. Skip's permission to leave references dangling is gone;
only routes that read nothing trust the claim (flat drop, raw
clear_subtree, replacing a populated subtree, a live recursive delete).
A batch DeleteTree is never pre-scanned: DontCheckWithNoCleanup declares
that the batch's own deletes emptied the subtree, Error and Skip verify it
at apply time, and DeleteChildren checks the declaration on the cleanup
walk it makes anyway, refusing a participant the batch does not explicitly
delete. Batch recursive removals therefore cost the plain removal on V4
(the nested cleanup fixture returns to 16 seeks / 1,999 loaded bytes).
The estimators charge the displaced-participant fan-out per op declared
MayBeParticipant; EstimatedLayerInformation::may_contain_backward_references
and the WithBackwardReferences worst-case variants are removed.
Regressions that relied on Skip to produce dangling registrations now do
so through the trusted raw clear of a nested subtree.

Skip validation for InsertIfNotExists no-ops.
When the key exists and error_if_exists == false, preprocessing discards GroveOp::InsertIfNotExists without writing or displacing a value. The validation at line 708 runs first and can return Error::NotSupported for an existing backward-reference participant declared as DisplacedValue::NotParticipant. Exclude this conditional no-op branch from the validation.

Lines 237 and 327 display Maintain, while the surrounding text still refers to Skip. Line 456 describes DisplacedValue as a batch-level value. These descriptions contradict the per-operation declaration model.

Declare the batch operation as NotParticipant.
QualifiedGroveDbOp::insert_or_replace_op defaults to DisplacedValue::MayBeParticipant, while the direct path uses DisplacedValue::NotParticipant. The two replace_cost branches therefore use different cost contracts. Add .with_displaced_value(DisplacedValue::NotParticipant) to the batch operation, or assert the intended cost difference explicitly.

BackwardReferencesPolicy,BatchApplyOptions::backward_references_policyand the per-layer estimator declarations are gone. Consumers setdisplaced_valueonInsertOptions,DeleteOptionsandClearOptions, declare ops throughQualifiedGroveDbOp::with_displaced_value, pass the declaration todrop_flat_subtree, and dropmay_contain_backward_referencesfromEstimatedLayerInformation. ADeleteTreewithDropFlatmust declareNotParticipant. OnGROVE_V4, plain writes that declareNotParticipantover a stored participant are now refused instead of leaving stale hashes; V1 to V3 are untouched.Checklist:
