+ * @xa is used to refer to the entire xarray.
+ * @xas is the 'xarray operation state'. It may be either a pointer to
+ * an xa_state, or an xa_state stored on the stack. This is an unfortunate
+ * ambiguity.
+ * @index is the index of the entry being operated on
+ * @mark is an xa_mark_t; a small number indicating one of the mark bits.
+ * @node refers to an xa_node; usually the primary one being operated on by
+ * this function.
+ * @offset is the index into the slots array inside an xa_node.
+ * @parent refers to the @xa_node closer to the head than @node.
+ * @entry refers to something stored in a slot in the xarray
