Not a review, just some minor comments in passing.

The structure seems to suggest that each `if` case could be hit in every iteration, but actually only the third case will be revisited more than once. I wonder if this could be made more explicit.

I wonder if the interface would be cleaner with returning `block_index` directly, i.e. `ssize_t claim_and_get_block()`.  When the index goes out of range, return an `InvalidIndex`, which could be defined as `-3`, like `EdenIndex` above.
