#669 turned an end-only capped HistoryRead-Raw into a reverse read (start > end)
for every backend; the gateway rejects start > end (InvalidArgument), so on the
default Gateway backend every end-only capped and every explicit reverse raw read
failed the node and was counted as a backend health failure.
- IHistorianDataSource.SupportsReverseRaw (default false; SqlServer/QuestDB/Null
true, Gateway false; guard test pins that every production backend declares it).
- OtOpcUaNodeManager sends a reverse window only to a backend that declares it;
otherwise ReverseRawReader walks (lo, hi] back in bounded forward segment reads
(1 min, x4 while sparse; each <= MaxTieClusterOverfetch + 1 rows; a full read is
re-read narrower, never answered truncated; filtered on sample timestamps, which
also drops AVEVA's fabricated query-start rows; stops at the Unix epoch). A
one-timestamp tie cluster over the bound => BadTooManyOperations.
- ServeRawPagedAsync maps HistoryReadLimitExceededException to BadTooManyOperations.
- GatewayHistorianDataSource.ReadRawAsync refuses start > end unsent, without
recording a health failure.
