reftable/block: reuse zstream state on inflation
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:
HEAP SUMMARY:
in use at exit: 13,473 bytes in 122 blocks
total heap usage: 23,028 allocs, 22,906 frees, 162,813,552 bytes allocated
After:
