Thanks for looking at this.

The exact fit (simple replacement) case is covered here.

I will look at adding the mas_wr_append() and mas_wr_slot_store()
checks as well. I suspect it will need to live around here.

I'm debating a function that returns the type of store and saving it in
mas (wr_mas does not live beyond this function). The mas store type
could be cleared unless mas_store_prealloc() is used. This would avoid
duplicating this work on the actual write operation.
