The reverse mapping btree now comes in two flavors: a fat one for
reflink filesystems supporting overlapped interval queries and a thin
one for filesystems that don't share blocks. Document the new on-disk
formats.

+The second pointer stores both the low key [24,5761,0,0,0] and the high key
+[548,5761,524,0,0], which means that we can expect block 771 to contain records

+records can be used to find a reverse mapping for physical block 548, inode
+5761, and offset 524:

+Observe that the first record in the block starts at physical block 24, inode
+5761, offset zero, just as we expected. Note that this first record is also
+indexed by the highest key as provided in the node block; physical block 548,
+inode 5761, offset 524 is the very last block mapped by this record. Furthermore,
+note that record 168, despite being the last record in this block, has a lower
+maximum key (physical block 382, inode 5928, offset 23) than the first record.
