Since 56b2970 has proven to be a no-go for us, as it breaks existing
links, let's embrace the trailing slash and use absolute links
everywhere for our pages. This way we'll get around browser cleverly
appending the relative link to the current location (since it ends with
a slash), and given our docs/ layout is flat it's not much of a hassle
either.
Converted using this beauty:
$ sed -ri 's/(\[.+\]\()([A-Z_]+\))/\1\/\2/g' *.md
Resolves: #32088 (again) and #32310
This reverts commit 5e8ff010a1.
This broke all the URLs, we can't have that. (And actually, we probably don't
_want_ to make the change either. It's nicer to have all the pages in one
directory, so one doesn't have to figure out to which collection the page
belongs.)
This way we can quickly find the most recent entry, without searching or
traversing entry array chains.
This is relevant later, as it it allows us to quickly determine the most
recent timestamps of each journal file, in a roughly atomic way.
Previously, we'd iterate an entry array from start to end every time
we added an entry offset to it. To speed up this operation, we cache
the last entry array in the chain and how many items it contains.
This allows the addition of an entry to the chain to be done in
constant time instead of linear time as we don't have to iterate
the entire chain anymore every time we add an entry.
To do this, we move EntryItem out of journal-def.h and turn it into
a host only struct in native endian mode so we can still use it to
ship the necessary info around.
Aside from that, the changes are pretty simple, we introduce some
extra functions to access the right field depending on the mode and
convert all the other code to use those functions instead of
accessing the raw fields.
We also drop the unused entry item hash field in compact mode. We
already stopped doing anything with this field a while ago, now we
actually drop it from the format in compact mode.
This adds a new flag in preparation for incompatible journal changes
which will be gated behind this flag. The max file size of journal
files in compact mode is limited to 4 GiB.
I have no idea if this is going to cause rendering problems, and it is fairly
hard to check. So let's just merge this, and if it github markdown processor
doesn't like it, revert.
