 *	       account any changes induced by a split).
 *	    +  inserts the tuple.
 *	    +  if the page was split, pops the parent stack, and finds the

 *
 *	On entry, we must have the right buffer on which to do the
 *	insertion, and the buffer must be pinned and locked.  On return,
 *	we will have dropped both the pin and the write lock on the buffer.
 *
 *	The locking interactions in this code are critical.  You should
 *	grok Lehman and Yao's paper before making any changes.  In addition,
 *	you need to understand how we disambiguate duplicate keys in this
 *	implementation, in order to be able to find our location using
 *	L&Y "move right" operations.  Since we may insert duplicate user
 *	keys, and since these dups may propogate up the tree, we use the
 *	'afteritem' parameter to position ourselves correctly for the
 *	insertion on internal pages.
