The function `block_iter_seek()` is merely a simple wrapper around
`block_reader_seek()`. Merge those two functions into a new function
`block_iter_seek_key()` that more clearly says what it is actually
doing.

The function `block_reader_start()` does not really apply to the block
reader, but to the block iterator. It's name is thus somewhat confusing.
Rename it to `block_iter_seek_start()` to clarify.
We will rename `block_reader_seek()` in similar spirit in the next
commit.

Similar to the preceding commit, let's carry over macros to allocate
arrays with `REFTABLE_ALLOC_ARRAY()` and `REFTABLE_CALLOC_ARRAY()`. This
requires us to change the signature of `reftable_calloc()`, which only
takes a single argument right now and thus puts the burden on the caller
to calculate the final array's size. This is a net improvement though as
it means that we can now provide proper overflow checks when multiplying
the array size with the member size.
Convert callsites of `reftable_calloc()` to the new signature and start
using the new macros where possible.

When reading ref records of type "val1", we store its object ID in an
allocated array. This results in an additional allocation for every
single ref record we read, which is rather inefficient especially when
iterating over refs.
Refactor the code to instead use an embedded array of `GIT_MAX_RAWSZ`
bytes. While this means that `struct ref_record` is bigger now, we
typically do not store all refs in an array anyway and instead only
handle a limited number of records at the same point in time.
Using `git show-ref --quiet` in a repository with ~350k refs this leads
to a significant drop in allocations. Before:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 21,098 bytes in 192 blocks
total heap usage: 2,116,683 allocs, 2,116,491 frees, 76,098,060 bytes allocated
After:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 21,098 bytes in 192 blocks
total heap usage: 1,419,031 allocs, 1,418,839 frees, 62,145,036 bytes allocated

There are a bunch of locations where we initialize members of `struct
block_iter`, which makes it harder than necessary to expand this struct
to have additional members. Unify the logic via a new `BLOCK_ITER_INIT`
macro that initializes all members.

The public interface (reftable_writer) already ensures that keys are
written in strictly increasing order, and an empty key by definition
fails this check.
However, by also enforcing this at the block layer, it is easier to
verify that records (which are written into blocks) never have to
consider the possibility of empty keys.

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.

The reftable format is structured as a sequence of block. Within a block,
records are prefix compressed, with an index of offsets for fully expand keys to
enable binary search within blocks.
This commit provides the logic to read and write these blocks.
