reflog entries have unbounded size. In theory, each log ('g') block in reftable
can have an arbitrary size, so the format allows for arbitrarily sized reflog
messages. However, in the implementation, we are not scaling the log blocks up
with the message, and writing a large message fails.
This triggers a failure for reftable in t7006-pager.sh.
Until this is fixed more structurally, report an error from within the reftable
library for easier debugging.

The packed/loose format has restrictions on refnames: a and a/b cannot
coexist. This limitation does not apply to reftable per se, but must be
maintained for interoperability. This code adds validation routines to
abort transactions that are trying to add invalid names.

This adds an abstract, read-only interface to the ref database.
This primitive is used to construct the read view of the ref database
(the read view is constructed by merging several *.ref files). It also
provides the mechanism to provide a unified view of the refs in the main
repository and the per-worktree refs.

With support for reading and writing files in place, we can construct files (in
memory) and attempt to read them back.
Because some sections of the format are optional (eg. indices, log entries), we
have to exercise this code using multiple sizes of input data

This supports reading a single reftable file.
The commit introduces an abstract iterator type, which captures the usecases
both of reading individual refs, and iterating over a segment of the ref
namespace.

The reftable format includes support for an (OID => ref) map. This map can speed
up visibility and reachability checks. In particular, various operations along
the fetch/push path within Gerrit have ben sped up by using this structure.
The map is constructed with help of a binary tree. Object IDs are hashes, so
they are uniformly distributed. Hence, the tree does not attempt forced
rebalancing.

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.

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.

The reftable format is usually used with files for storage. However, we abstract
away this using the blocksource data structure. This has two advantages:
* log blocks are zlib compressed, and handling them is simplified if we can
discard byte segments from within the block layer.
* for unittests, it is useful to read and write in-memory. The blocksource
allows us to abstract the data away from on-disk files.

The reftable/ directory is structured as a library, so it cannot
crash on misuse. Instead, it returns an error code.
In addition to signaling errors, the error code can be used to signal
conditions from lower levels of the library to be handled by higher
levels of the library. For example, in a transaction we might
legitimately write an empty reftable file, but in that case, we want to
shortcut the transaction.

The objective of this code is to be usable as a C library, so it can be reused
in libgit2.
This is currently using a BSD license as it is the liberal license I could find,
but this could be changed to whatever fits the stated goal above.
This code is currently imported from github.com/hanwen/reftable. Once this code
lands in git.git, the C code will be removed from github.com/hanwen/reftable,
and the git.git code will be the source of truth.
