I knew there had to be a reason that some tests where BLCKSZ/2 and some
BLCKSZ.
Added to TODO:
* Allow index on tuple greater than 1/2 block size
Seems we have to allow columns over 1/2 block size for now. Most people
wouln't index on them.

> FATAL 1: btree: failed to add item to the page

> It crashes the backend AND seems to corrupt the index! Looks
