01033de49f reftable: add print functions to the record types
This isn't used per se, but it is useful for debugging, especially
Windows CI failures.

66c0dabab5 reftable: make reftable_record a tagged union
This reduces the amount of glue code, because we don't need a void
pointer or vtable within the structure.

The only snag is that reftable_index_record contain a strbuf, so it
cannot be zero-initialized. To address this, use reftable_new_record()
to return fresh instance, given a record type. Since
reftable_new_record() doesn't cause heap allocation anymore, it should
be balanced with reftable_record_release() rather than
reftable_record_destroy().

Thanks to Peff for the suggestion.

c983374035 reftable: implement record equality generically
This simplifies unittests a little, and provides further coverage for
reftable_record_copy().

e303bf22f9 reftable: (de)serialization for the polymorphic record type.
The reftable format is structured as a sequence of blocks, and each block
contains a sequence of prefix-compressed key-value records. There are 4 types of
records, and they have similarities in how they must be handled. This is
achieved by introducing a polymorphic 'record' type that encapsulates ref, log,
index and object records.
