-----------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for unsigned varint to Bytes util class
Key: HBASE-27334
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-27334
Project: HBase
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Bryan Beaudreault
Our current Bytes.vintToBytes accepts a signed long, and the resulting encoded
size is larger than it needs to be for small values. For example,
Bytes.vintToBytes requires 3 bytes for values over 255, whereas an unsigned
implementation can use 2 bytes for up to 16383. This continues across the
spectrum, with the current requiring 4 bytes for values over 65535 and an
unsigned impl can use 3 bytes up to 2097151, etc.
We can pull the implementation from CodedInputStream and CodedOutputStream
