[PATCH] denser delta header encoding

Since the delta data format is not tied to any actual git object
anymore, now is the time to add a small improvement to the delta data
header as it is been done for packed object header.  This patch allows
for reducing the delta header of about 2 bytes and makes for simpler
code.
