There was a bug which caused incorrect results of limits()
for columns with reversed clustering order.
Such columns have reversed_type as their type and this
needs to be taken into account when comparing them.
It was introduced in 6d943e6cd0.
This commit replaced uses of get_value_comparator
with type_of. The difference between them is that
get_value_comparator applied ->without_reversed()
on the result type.
Because the type was reversed, comparisons like
1 < 2 evaluated to false.
This caused the test testIndexOnKeyWithReverseClustering
to fail, but sadly it wasn't caught by CI because
the CI itself has a bug that makes it skip some tests.
The test passes now, although it has to be run manually
to check that.
