Fast Incremental Discovery of Pointwise Order Dependencies

Summary: Introduces incremental discovery of minimal pointwise order dependencies under tuple insertions. Novel indexes identify affected violations in logarithmic-in-data-size cost, enabling efficient invalidation and refinement of PODs and outperforming batch recomputation by orders of magnitude.
