/**
* lib/minmax.c: windowed min/max tracker
*
* Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum (or maximum)
* value of a data stream over some fixed time interval. (E.g.,
* the minimum RTT over the past five minutes.) It uses constant
* space and constant time per update yet almost always delivers
* the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all the
* data in the window.
*
* The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
* values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
* the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
* values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
* the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
* over the window.
*
* Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
* it has no value - the new min is <= everything else in the window
* by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh on
* every new min and overwrites 2nd & 3rd choices. The same property
* holds for 2nd & 3rd best.
