fd05037e1a changed the allocation batch
size from 256 to 128 under the assumption that an indexEntry is 60 bytes
on amd64, but it's 64: structs are padded out to a multiple of 8 for
alignment reasons. That means we'd waste no space in malloc even without
the batch allocation, at least on 64-bit machines. While that strategy
cuts the overallocation down dramatically for many small indexes, it also
seems to slow allocation down (Go 1.18, Linux, amd64, -benchtime=2s):

Instead, this patch sets a batch size of 4, which means no space is
wasted by malloc on 64-bit and very little on 32-bit. It still gets very
close to the savings from not allocating in batches, without requiring
special code for bits.UintSize==64. Benchmark results, again for
Linux/amd64:

The allocation method indexmap.newEntry has also been rewritten in a
form that is a few instructions shorter.
Apparently SMB/CIFS on Linux/macOS returns somewhat random errnos when
trying to sync a windows share which does not support calling fsync for
a directory.
This functionality has gone unused since
4b3dc415ef changed hashing.Reader's only
client to use ioutil.ReadAll on a bufio.Reader wrapping the hashing
Reader.
Reverts bcb852a8d0.
This removes RunWorkers, which had become mere overhead by successive
refactors. It also ensures that each former user of that function
returns any context error that occurs, so failure to complete an
operation is always reported as an error.
Apparently it can take a moment between closing a tempfile marked as
DELETE_ON_CLOSE and it actually being deleted. During that time the file
is inaccessible. Thus just skip deleting the temp file on windows.
Tree packs are cached locally at clients and thus benefit a lot from
being compressed. Ensure this be having prune always repack pack files
containing uncompressed trees.
A compressed index is only about one third the size of an uncompressed
one. Thus increase the number of entries in an index to avoid cluttering
the repository with small indexes.
The config file is not compressed as it should remain readable by older
restic versions such that these can return a proper error.
As the old format for unpacked data does not include a version header,
make use of a trick: The old data is always encoded as JSON. Thus it can
only start with '{' or '['. For any other value the first byte indicates
a versioned format. The version is set to 2 for now. Then the zstd
compressed data follows.
As repack streams packs these occupy one backend connection. Uploading a
new pack also requires a backend connection. To prevent a deadlock
during repack when reaching the backend connections limit, simply limit
the repackWorker count to always leave one connection for uploading.
