/*
 * Purpose:	Provides a skip list abstract data type.
 *
 *              (See "Skip Lists: A Probabilistic Alternative to Balanced Trees"
 *               by William Pugh for additional information)
 *
 *              (This implementation has the optimization for reducing key
 *               key comparisons mentioned in section 3.5 of "A Skip List
 *               Cookbook" by William Pugh)
 *
 *              (Also, this implementation has a couple of home-grown
 *               optimizations, including setting the "update" vector to the
 *               actual 'forward' pointer to update, instead of the node
 *               containing the forward pointer -QAK)
 *
 *              (Note: This implementation does not have the information for
 *               implementing the "Linear List Operations" (like insert/delete/
 *               search by position) in section 3.4 of "A Skip List Cookbook",
 *               but they shouldn't be that hard to add, if necessary)

        void *op_data;          IN/OUT: Pointer to application data for callback

 RETURNS
    Returns a negative value if something is wrong, the return
        value of the last operator if it was non-zero, or zero if all
        nodes were processed.
 DESCRIPTION
    Iterate over all the nodes in a skip list, calling an application callback
    with the item, key and any operator data.

    The operator callback receives a pointer to the item and key for the list
    being iterated over ('mesg'), and the pointer to the operator data passed
    in to H5SL_iterate ('op_data').  The return values from an operator are:
        A. Zero causes the iterator to continue, returning zero when all 
            nodes of that type have been processed.
        B. Positive causes the iterator to immediately return that positive
            value, indicating short-circuit success.
        C. Negative causes the iterator to immediately return that value,
            indicating failure.
