Review Comment:
   Correct on all counts — the estimate was not a bound at all for arrays of 
short values, and the "sizes the value buffer up front" claim only held for the 
few-large-row shape. Fixed in b1acaefbc.
   
   Since rows pad independently, the encoded total is `sum ceil(len_i / 3) * 
4`, which genuinely cannot be recovered from the summed input bytes. But `sum 
ceil(x_i) <= ceil(sum x_i) + (N - 1)`, so adding `4 * (N - 1)` turns it into a 
true upper bound while staying O(1) — no pass over the offsets, so this does 
not walk back the earlier round. It over-reserves by at most 4 bytes per row, 
which only bites for arrays of very short values, where the buffer is small in 
absolute terms anyway. The chunked case then applies `chunked_len` to that 
bound, which is still an upper bound because `sum floor((enc_i - 1) / 76) <= 
floor((sum enc_i - 1) / 76)`.
   
   Extracted into `encoded_capacity` with the reasoning in a doc comment, and 
pinned by `encoded_capacity_is_an_upper_bound`, which compares the estimate 
against the actual encoded total for eight shapes — including the `vec![1; 64]` 
worst case that motivated this, all-empty, exactly-one-line, wraps-once, mixed, 
and few-large-rows — under both chunk settings. `encode_array_many_tiny_rows` 
covers output correctness for that shape separately.
   
   On encoding straight into the builder's value buffer: that turned out to be 
possible and is now done (see the other thread), which is also why this 
estimate is back to being a pure hint rather than something the hot path 
depends on.
