1. The at-or-after bound read on a forward-only backend (Gateway) ends at
now + ReverseRawReader.LookAhead instead of DateTime.MaxValue (the gateway
only checks start <= end, so a year-9999 end reached AVEVA); a bound beyond
the horizon is not found without a read. SqlServer/QuestDB keep MaxValue:
they bind it safely and may hold samples further ahead. The Gateway fake now
refuses far-future ends, so the missing-end-bound test is no longer vacuous.
3. No data and no bound found (whole read empty) => GoodNoData, no values —
the pre-bounds answer (6.5.3.2: success only if one or both bounds exist).
A one-value page whose start bound is missing first checks there is data or
a found end bound.
4. ServerHistorian:HonorReturnBounds (default true); false ignores ReturnBounds
as before #691, including the modified-read Bad_InvalidArgument.
