Yeah, I think the series is good to be merged now.

This series received two favorable reviews [1][2]. Justin pointed out
one typo in a commit message that can be fixed like this: 

 1:  eb487557a8 =  1:  eb487557a8 reftable/block: rename `block_reader_start()`
 2:  d0b318b8ee =  2:  d0b318b8ee reftable/block: merge `block_iter_seek()` and `block_reader_seek()`
 3:  c3f928d1e9 =  3:  c3f928d1e9 reftable/block: better grouping of functions

    @@ Commit message
         When seeking a reftable record in a block we need to position the
         iterator _before_ the sought-after record so that the next call to
         `block_iter_next()` would yield that record. To achieve this, the loop
    -    that performs the linear needs to restore the previous position once it
    +    that performs the linear seeks to restore the previous position once it
         has found the record.
     
         This is done by advancing two `block_iter`s: one to check whether the

I don't really feel like it is worth it to reroll the whole series just
to fix this one typo, but can do so if preferred by you. Just let me
know.

Thanks!
