Re: [PATCH 01/10] reftable/merged: expose functions to initialize iterators

> We do not expose any functions via our public headers that would allow a
> caller to initialize a reftable iterator from a merged table. Instead,
> they are expected to go via the generic `reftable_table` interface,
> which is somewhat roundabout.
>
> Implement two new functions to initialize iterators for ref and log
> records to plug this gap.
