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.
