The core of this change is the implementation of stream trimming, and
the resulting MAXLEN option of XADD as a trivial result of having
trimming functionalities. MAXLEN already works but in order to be more
efficient listpack GC should be implemented, currently marked as a TODO
item inside the comments.

Listpack max size is a tradeoff between space and time. A 2k max entry
puts the memory usage approximately at a similar order of magnitude (5
million entries went from 96 to 120 MB), but the range queries speed
doubled (because there are half entries to scan in the average case).
Lower values could be considered, or maybe this parameter should be
made tunable.

We used to have the master ID stored at the start of the listpack,
however using the key directly makes more sense in order to create a
space efficient representation: anyway the key at the radix tree is very
unlikely to change because of how the stream is implemented. Moreover on
nodes merging, to rewrite the merged listpacks is anyway the most
sensible operation, and we can use the iterator and the append-to-stream
function in order to avoid re-implementing the code needed for merging.
This commit also adds two items at the start of the listpack: the
number of valid items inside the listpack, and the number of items
marked as deleted. This means that there is no need to scan a listpack
in order to understand if it's a good candidate for garbage collection,
if the ration between valid/deleted items triggers the GC.

The approach used is to set a fixed header at the start of every
listpack blob (that contains many entries). The header contains a
"master" ID and fields, that are initially just obtained from the first
entry inserted in the listpack, so that the first enty is always well
compressed. Later every new entry is checked against these fields, and
if it matches, the SAMEFIELD flag is set in the entry so that we know to
just use the master entry flags. The IDs are always delta-encoded
against the first entry. This approach avoids cascading effects in which
entries are encoded depending on the previous entries, in order to avoid
complexity and rewritings of the data when data is removed in the middle
(which is a planned feature).

blockForKeys() was not freeing the allocation holding the ID when the
key was already found busy. Fortunately the unit test checked explicitly
for blocking multiple times for the same key (copying a regression in
the blocking lists tests), so the bug was detected by the Redis test leak
checker.
