\brief This interface provides a facility which enables a client to 
 order and access a set of arbitary data in a binary "tree"
 
 Each "tree" is defined by a number of "clientnodes" which are
 ordered according to a client defined "key".

 A "clientkey" is a client specific entity which can be compared
 with a "clientnode" to determine which is the "greatest". In order
 to do this the client needs provide a comparison function for
 comparing a "clientnode" with a "clientkey", and a function to
 convert a "clientnode" into a "clientkey".

 The client is responsible for providing each "clientnode" in a
 tree. This will typically contain some client specific data, but
 will also need to contain a bintree "node" which is used to
 structurally relate each node to one another in the tree. A
 specific "node" may only belong to one tree at a time, but an
 individual "clientnode" may contain multiple of these if necessary.

\par Implementation
The implementation of this interface uses a top-down splaying algorithm.

\par 
"Splay trees", or "self-adjusting search trees" are a simple and
efficient data structure for storing an ordered set.  The data
structure consists of a binary tree, without parent pointers, and
no additional fields.  It allows searching, insertion, deletion,
deletemin, deletemax, splitting, joining, and many other
operations, all with amortized logarithmic performance.  Since the
trees adapt to the sequence of requests, their performance on real
access patterns is typically even better.  Splay trees are
described in a number of texts and papers [1,2,3,4,5].

\par
The code here is adapted from simple top-down splay, at the bottom
of page 669 of [3].  It can be obtained via anonymous ftp from
spade.pc.cs.cmu.edu in directory /usr/sleator/public.

\par
The chief modification here is that the splay operation works even
if the item being splayed is not in the tree, and even if the tree
root of the tree is NULL.  So the line:

\par
                           t = splay(i, t);

\par
causes it to search for item with key i in the tree rooted at t.
If it's there, it is splayed to the root.  If it isn't there,
then the node put at the root is the last one before NULL that
would have been reached in a normal binary search for i.  (It's a
neighbor of i in the tree.)  This allows many other operations to
be easily implemented.
