* Improved the internal uid/gid code to be more portable and
a little more optimized.
* Device numbers are now sent as separate major/minor values
with 32-bit accuracy for each one (protocol 28). Previously
hard-link device data was sent as a single 64-bit number, and
copied devices were sent as a single 32-bit number. This will
make inter-operation of 64-bit binaries more compatible with
their 32-bit brethren. Note that optimizations in the binary
protocol often sends the device data using fewer bytes than
before, even though more precision is now available.
* The device numbers sent when using --devices are now sent as
separate major/minor values with 32-bit accuracy (protocol 28).

* Some cleanup of the exclude/include structures and its code
made things clearer, simpler, and more efficient.
