Thank you @jimczi! I think now the delta lifecycle becomes:
```
loop until a merge flattens everything back to a normal column:
- every flush writes a delta with only the changed docs
- too many deltas:
- deltas cover < 50% of the segment -> fold them into one sparse
generation (base dense gen is untouched if there is)
- deltas end up covering > 50% of the segment -> fold base dense gen (if
there is) + deltas into a new dense base gen, and old base gen gets reclaimed
```
