merged_iter_pqueue_check() is a function previously defined in
reftable/pq_test.c (now t/unit-tests/t-reftable-pq.c) and used in
the testing of a priority queue as defined by reftable/pq.{c, h}.
As such, this function is only called by reftable/pq_test.c and it
makes little sense to expose it to non-testing code via reftable/pq.h.
Hence, make this function static and remove its prototype from
reftable/pq.h.

We have a few functions which are basically just accessors to
structures. As those functions are executed inside the hot loop when
iterating through many refs, the fact that they cannot be inlined is
costing us some performance.
Move the function definitions into their respective headers so that they
can be inlined. This results in a performance improvement when iterating
over 1 million refs:
Benchmark 1: show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 105.9 ms ± 3.6 ms [User: 103.0 ms, System: 2.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 103.1 ms … 133.4 ms 1000 runs
Benchmark 2: show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 100.7 ms ± 3.4 ms [User: 97.8 ms, System: 2.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 97.8 ms … 124.0 ms 1000 runs
Summary
show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD) ran
1.05 ± 0.05 times faster than show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD~)

For each subiterator, the merged table needs to track their current
record. This record is owned by the priority queue though instead of by
the merged iterator. This is not optimal performance-wise.
For one, we need to move around records whenever we add or remove a
record from the priority queue. Thus, the bigger the entries the more
bytes we need to copy around. And compared to pointers, a reftable
record is rather on the bigger side. The other issue is that this makes
it harder to reuse the records.
Refactor the code so that the merged iterator tracks ownership of the
records per-subiter. Instead of having records in the priority queue, we
can now use mere pointers to the per-subiter records. This also allows
us to swap records between the caller and the per-subiter record instead
of doing an actual copy via `reftable_record_copy_from()`, which removes
the need to release the caller-provided record.
This results in a noticeable speedup when iterating through many refs.
The following benchmark iterates through 1 million refs:
Benchmark 1: show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD~)
Time (mean ± σ): 145.5 ms ± 4.5 ms [User: 142.5 ms, System: 2.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 141.3 ms … 177.0 ms 1000 runs
Benchmark 2: show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD)
Time (mean ± σ): 139.0 ms ± 4.7 ms [User: 136.1 ms, System: 2.8 ms]
Range (min … max): 134.2 ms … 182.2 ms 1000 runs
Summary
show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD) ran
1.05 ± 0.05 times faster than show-ref: single matching ref (revision = HEAD~)
This refactoring also allows a subsequent refactoring where we start
reusing memory allocated by the reftable records because we do not need
to release the caller-provided record anymore.

The reftable priority queue is used by the merged iterator to yield
records from its sub-iterators in the expected order. Each entry has a
record corresponding to such a sub-iterator as well as an index that
indicates which sub-iterator the record belongs to. But while the
sub-iterators are tracked with a `size_t`, we store the index as an
`int` in the entry.
Fix this and use `size_t` consistently.

The speed of the merged_iter_pqueue_add() can be improved by using a
pointer to the pq_entry struct, which is 96 bytes. Since the pq_entry
param is worked directly on the stack and does not currently have a
pointer to it, the merged_iter_pqueue_add() function is slightly
slower.
References to pq_entry in reftable have typically included pointers,
such as both of the params for pq_less().
Since we are working with pointers in the pq_entry param, as keenly
pointed out, the pq_entry param has also been made into a const since
the contents of the pq_entry param are copied and not manipulated.
