Both `struct block_writer` and `struct reftable_writer` have a `buf`
member that is being reused to optimize the number of allocations.
Rename the variable to `scratch` to clarify its intend and provide a
comment explaining why it exists.

The block writer needs to compute the key for every record that one adds
to the writer. The buffer for this key is stored on the stack and thus
reallocated on every call to `block_writer_add()`, which is inefficient.
Refactor the code so that we store the buffer in the `block_writer`
struct itself so that we can reuse it. This reduces the number of
allocations when writing many refs, e.g. when migrating one million refs
from the "files" backend to the "reftable backend. Before this change:

Adapt the name of the `block_writer::buf` variable to instead be called
`block`. This aligns it with the existing `block_len` variable, which
tracks the length of this buffer, and is generally a bit more tied to
the actual context where this variable gets used.

Convert the reftable library to use the `reftable_buf` interface instead
of the `strbuf` interface. This is mostly a mechanical change via sed(1)
with some manual fixes where functions for `strbuf` and `reftable_buf`
differ. The converted code does not yet handle allocation failures. This
will be handled in subsequent commits.

The restart interval can at most be `UINT16_MAX` as specified in the
technical documentation of the reftable format. Furthermore, it cannot
ever be negative. Regardless of that we use an `int` to track the
restart interval.
Change the type to use an `uint16_t` instead.

Similar to the preceding commit, let's reuse the `compressed` array that
we use to store compressed data in. This results in a small reduction in
memory allocations when writing many refs.
Before:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 671,931 bytes in 151 blocks
total heap usage: 22,620,528 allocs, 22,620,377 frees, 1,245,549,984 bytes allocated

So while the reduction in allocations isn't really all that big, it's a
low hanging fruit and thus there isn't much of a reason not to pick it.

While most reftable blocks are written to disk as-is, blocks for log
records are compressed with zlib. To compress them we use `compress2()`,
which is a simple wrapper around the more complex `zstream` interface
that would require multiple function invocations.
One downside of this interface is that `compress2()` will reallocate
internal state of the `zstream` interface on every single invocation.
Consequently, as we call `compress2()` for every single log block which
we are about to write, this can lead to quite some memory allocation
churn.
Refactor the code so that the block writer reuses a `zstream`. This
significantly reduces the number of bytes allocated when writing many
refs in a single transaction, as demonstrated by the following benchmark
that writes 100k refs in a single transaction.

When seeking a reftable record in a block we need to position the
iterator _before_ the sought-after record so that the next call to
`block_iter_next()` would yield that record. To achieve this, the loop
that performs the linear seeks to restore the previous position once it
has found the record.
This is done by advancing two `block_iter`s: one to check whether the
next record is our sought-after record, and one that we update after
every iteration. This of course involves quite a lot of copying and also
leads to needless memory allocations.
Refactor the code to get rid of the `next` iterator and the copying this
involves. Instead, we can restore the previous offset such that the call
to `next` will return the correct record.
Next to being simpler conceptually this also leads to a nice speedup.
The following benchmark parser 10k refs out of 100k existing refs via
`git-rev-list --no-walk`:
Benchmark 1: rev-list: print many refs (HEAD~)

When calling `inflateInit()` and `inflate()`, the zlib library will
allocate several data structures for the underlying `zstream` to keep
track of various information. Thus, when inflating repeatedly, it is
possible to optimize memory allocation patterns by reusing the `zstream`
and then calling `inflateReset()` on it to prepare it for the next chunk
of data to inflate.
This is exactly what the reftable code is doing: when iterating through
reflogs we need to potentially inflate many log blocks, but we discard
the `zstream` every single time. Instead, as we reuse the `block_reader`
for each of the blocks anyway, we can initialize the `zstream` once and
then reuse it for subsequent inflations.
Refactor the code to do so, which leads to a significant reduction in
the number of allocations. The following measurements were done when
iterating through 1 million reflog entries. Before:

The reftable backend stores reflog entries in a compressed format and
thus needs to uncompress blocks before one can read records from it.
For each reflog block we thus have to allocate an array that we can
decompress the block contents into. This block is being discarded
whenever the table iterator moves to the next block. Consequently, we
reallocate a new array on every block, which is quite wasteful.
Refactor the code to reuse the uncompressed block data when moving the
block reader to a new block. This significantly reduces the number of
allocations when iterating through many compressed blocks. The following
measurements are done with `git reflog list` when listing 100k reflogs.

The table iterator allows the caller to iterate through all records in a
reftable table. To do so it iterates through all blocks of the desired
type one by one, where for each block it creates a new block iterator
and yields all its entries.
One of the things that is somewhat confusing in this context is who owns
the block reader that is being used to read the blocks and pass them to
the block iterator. Intuitively, as the table iterator is responsible
for iterating through the blocks, one would assume that this iterator is
also responsible for managing the lifecycle of the reader. And while it
somewhat is, the block reader is ultimately stored inside of the block
iterator.
Refactor the code such that the block reader is instead fully managed by
the table iterator. Instead of passing the reader to the block iterator,
we now only end up passing the block data to it. Despite clearing up the
lifecycle of the reader, it will also allow for better reuse of the
reader in subsequent patches.
The following benchmark prints a single matching ref out of 1 million
refs. Before:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 13,603 bytes in 125 blocks
total heap usage: 6,607 allocs, 6,482 frees, 509,635 bytes allocated
After:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 13,603 bytes in 125 blocks
total heap usage: 7,235 allocs, 7,110 frees, 301,481 bytes allocated
Note that while there are more allocation and free calls now, the
overall number of bytes allocated is significantly lower. The number of
allocations will be reduced significantly by the next patch though.

When decoding log records we need a temporary buffer to decode the
reflog entry's name, mail address and message. As this buffer is local
to the function we thus have to reallocate it for every single log
record which we're about to decode, which is inefficient.
Refactor the code such that callers need to pass in a scratch buffer,
which allows us to reuse it for multiple decodes. This reduces the
number of allocations when iterating through reflogs. Before:

Note that this commit also drop some redundant calls to `strbuf_reset()`
right before calling `decode_string()`. The latter already knows to
reset the buffer, so there is no need for these.

When reading a record from a block, we need to decode the record's key.
As reftable keys are prefix-compressed, meaning they reuse a prefix from
the preceding record's key, this is a bit more involved than just having
to copy the relevant bytes: we need to figure out the prefix and suffix
lengths, copy the prefix from the preceding record and finally copy the
suffix from the current record.
This is done by passing three buffers to `reftable_decode_key()`: one
buffer that holds the result, one buffer that holds the last key, and
one buffer that points to the current record. The final key is then
assembled by calling `strbuf_add()` twice to copy over the prefix and
suffix.
Performing two memory copies is inefficient though. And we can indeed do
better by decoding keys in place. Instead of providing two buffers, the
caller may only call a single buffer that is already pre-populated with
the last key. Like this, we only have to call `strbuf_setlen()` to trim
the record to its prefix and then `strbuf_add()` to add the suffix.
This refactoring leads to a noticeable performance bump when iterating
over 1 million refs:
