This changes the files table to use normalisation for the names and
versions. The idea is that these are often common between all remote
devices, and repeating an integer is more efficient than repeating a
long string. A new benchmark bears this out; for a database with 100k
files shared between 31 devices, with some worst case assumption on
version vector size, the database is reduced in size by 50% and the test
finishes quicker:
Current:
db_bench_test.go:322: Total size: 6263.70 MiB
--- PASS: TestBenchmarkSizeManyFilesRemotes (1084.89s)
New:
db_bench_test.go:326: Total size: 3049.95 MiB
--- PASS: TestBenchmarkSizeManyFilesRemotes (776.97s)
The other benchmarks end up about the same within the margin of
variability, with one possible exception being that RemoteNeed seems to
be a little slower on average:
old files/s new files/s
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=1000-8 5.051k 4.654k
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=2000-8 5.201k 4.384k
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=4000-8 4.943k 4.242k
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=8000-8 5.099k 3.527k
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=16000-8 3.686k 3.847k
Update/n=RemoteNeed/size=30000-8 4.456k 3.482k
I'm not sure why, possibly that query can be optimised anyhow.

This is a draft because I haven't adjusted all the tests yet, I'd like
to get feedback on the change overall first, before spending time on
that.
In my opinion the main win of this change is in it's lower complexity
resp. fewer moving parts. It should also be faster as it only does one
query instead of two, but I have no idea if that's practically
relevant.
This also mirrors the v1 DB, where a block map key had the name
appended. Not that this is an argument for the change, it was mostly
reassuring me that I might not be missing something key here
conceptually (I might still be of course, please tell me :) ).
And the change isn't mainly intrinsically motivated, instead it came
up while fixing a bug in the copier. And the nested nature of that code
makes the fix harder, and "un-nesting" it required me to understand
what's happening. This change fell out of that.
This changes the database structure to use one database per folder, with
a small main database to coordinate. Reverts the prior change to buffer
all files in memory when pulling, meaning there is now a phase where the
WAL file will grow significantly, at least for initial sync of folders
with many directories.
