Summary:
The AdvanceMaxEvictedSeq algorithm assumes that new snapshots always have sequence number larger than the last max_evicted_seq_. To enforce this assumption we make two changes:
i) max is not advanced beyond the last published seq, with the exception that the evicted commit entry itself is not published yet, which is quite rare.
ii) When obtaining the snapshot if the max_evicted_seq_ is not published yet, commit a dummy entry so that it waits for it to be published and also increased the latest published seq by one above the max.
To test these non-realistic corner cases we create a commit cache with size 1 so that every single commit results into eviction.
