//! Variable length bytes belonging to one collection, back to back.
//!
//! Two things inside a collection are the same problem. A set or a hash interns
//! its member and field names so that writing the same field again touches no
//! name bytes (`05` section 3), and a hash in the native band has to put its
//! values somewhere that is not one allocation per field, because one allocation
//! per field is the thing the element per row layout exists to avoid. Both want
//! a stretch of bytes with an offset handed back, both want a rewrite to leave
//! the old bytes behind rather than move everything after them, and both want
//! those bytes back eventually.
//!
//! ```text
//!   bytes                                    dead
//! +-------+---------+-------+---------+     bytes nothing points at, counted
//! | name  | oldval  | name  | value   |     here and given back once they
//! +-------+---------+-------+---------+     outnumber the ones that are live
//!    ^ at, len              ^ at, len
//! ```
//!
//! # It does not hold the references
//!
//! [`Blob::push`] hands back an offset and nothing else, and [`Blob::read`] takes
//! an offset and a length. The reference is the caller's to shape, which is not
//! ceremony, because the two callers want different shapes and neither of them
//! is a compromise with the other.
//!
//! [`crate::Elements`] has eight spare bits in a row it is trying to keep at
//! eight bytes, so it keeps a name's length in those and its reference is the
//! offset on its own. A hash value has no spare bits anywhere and cannot be
//! capped at two hundred and fifty five bytes either, because Redis lets one be
//! half a gigabyte, so [`Blob::push_sized`] writes the length into the blob in
//! front of the bytes and its reference is also the offset on its own. One byte
//! of prefix for a value under two hundred and fifty five bytes and five for
//! anything longer, which is a byte per field against the four a length beside
//! the offset would cost.
//!
//! [`Span`] is here for the callers that have no reason to pack it tighter.
//!
//! # Giving the dead bytes back
//!
//! A rewrite appends and abandons, so a hash whose values are written over and
//! over holds every value it ever had until something clears up. That something
//! is [`Blob::compact`], which the owner runs when [`Blob::worth_compacting`]
//! says so and drives itself, because the owner is the only thing that knows
//! where its references are. Until then the dead bytes are counted and reported
//! rather than pretended away, which is the rule the arena follows and for the
//! same reason: a number `INFO memory` can show is a leak you can see.
//!
//! Half is the line, with a floor of four kilobytes under it. Below the half the
//! copy costs more than the bytes are worth, and below the floor there are not
//! enough bytes to be worth a copy at any ratio at all.
