--------------------------------------

This is only a shallow copy.

> Here is offending code from inside in StoreScanner#next:
> {code}
>       // kv is no longer immutable due to KeyOnlyFilter! use copy for safety
>       KeyValue copyKv = new KeyValue(kv.getBuffer(), kv.getOffset(), kv.getLength());
> {code}
> This looks wrong given philosophy up to this has been avoidance of garbage-making copies.
> Maybe this has been looked into before and this is the only thing to be done but why is KeyOnlyFilter not making copies rather than mutating originals?
> Making this critical against 0.92.
