toOffsetLimit

Converts backward pagination arguments to offset/limit.

• last determines the page size (defaults to defaultPageSize).

• before cursor encodes the index of the first item on the next page; the offset and limit are computed to return the last items ending just before that position, clamped so the window never extends before index 0.

• If before is absent, a negative offset equal to -pageSize is returned, signalling viaduct.api.internal.ConnectionBuilder.fromList to resolve from the tail of the full list. Prefer toOffsetLimit(Int, Int) with the total count when available.

Converts backward pagination arguments to offset/limit when the total count is known.

When before is absent, this computes the offset as max(0, totalCount - last) to return the last N items from the dataset, avoiding the negative-offset signal used by toOffsetLimit(Int). When before is present, totalCount is ignored.
