2023-10-22bcachefs: New varintsKent Overstreet1-0/+8
Previous varint implementation used by the inode code was not nearly as fast as it could have been; partly because it was attempting to encode integers up to 96 bits (for timestamps) but this meant that encoding and decoding the length required a table lookup. Instead, we'll just encode timestamps greater than 64 bits as two separate varints; this will make decoding/encoding of inodes significantly faster overall.
