2025-10-02varint: use explicit width for integersPatrick Steinhardt
The varint subsystem currently uses implicit widths for integers. On the one hand we use `uintmax_t` for the actual value. On the other hand, we use `int` for the length of the encoded varint. Both of these have known maximum values, as we only support at most 16 bytes when encoding varints. Thus, we know that we won't ever exceed `uint64_t` for the actual value and `uint8_t` for the prefix length. Refactor the code to use explicit widths. Besides making the logic platform-independent, it also makes our life a bit easier in the next commit, where we reimplement "varint.c" in Rust.

2019-05-05*.[ch]: remove extern from function declarations using spatchDenton Liu
There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations. Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern` declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch. This was the Coccinelle patch used: @@ type T; identifier f; @@ - extern T f(...); and it was run with: $ git ls-files \*.{c,h} | grep -v ^compat/ | xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much as possible.
