Summary:
Partitioned filters make use of a top-level index to find the partition in which the filter resides. The top-level index has a key per partition. The key is guaranteed to be larger or equal than any key in that partition. When used with format_version 3, which excludes the sequence number form index keys, the separator key in the index could be equal to the prefix of the keys in the next partition. In this way, when searching for the key, the top-level index will lead us to the previous partition, which has no key with that prefix. The prefix bloom test thus returns false, although the prefix exists in the bloom of the next partition.
The patch fixes that by a hack: It always adds the prefix of the first key of the next partition to the bloom of the current partition. In this way, in the corner cases that the index will lead us to the previous partition, we still can find the bloom filter there.
