Please drop the cases from the comments. These aren't that complicated
to need diagrams.

Case 1: Overwriting the range and over a part of the next range
Case 2: Overwriting a part of the range and over the entire next range

These two lines need to be in opposite order to ensure a reader sees
either the value or the previous value. If you overwrite something with
a new value, it is possible that a reader looking for the next range
will get the value stored at offset (but not entry).
