Closes #2057 , #1041
If we keep the current design, we are also closing #1822
Supersedes #1764
This PR implements support for an additional DB key representation. The different key layout sorts the entries by height instead of lexicographically as in the current version of Comet.
When starting this work, we hoped that the new layout would significantly outperform the current layout. As we do not have sufficient real world evidence for this, this PR introduces a DB key layout interface that would allow Comet to easily integrate a more preferential key representation without major breaking changes.
The layout using ordercode is introduced as experimental, allowing users to easily experiment with this.
This layout was thoroughly tested as part of #1044 and all results will be in a report closing the mentioned PR.
Locally tested:
