> 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
