func_documentation_string: Composes a partition of the version id 0-latestVersionId range, through a combination of an exponential-gap-size partitioning and a new-chunk-merging (linear) partitioning. Note that 'latestVersionId' is actually just the length of the snapshot object's version ids list, hence we're segmenting that space, not the actual version id space. The segmenting is then mapped to the real version id space.
