The reftable backend stores reflog entries in a compressed format and
thus needs to uncompress blocks before one can read records from it.
For each reflog block we thus have to allocate an array that we can
decompress the block contents into. This block is being discarded
whenever the table iterator moves to the next block. Consequently, we
reallocate a new array on every block, which is quite wasteful.
Refactor the code to reuse the uncompressed block data when moving the
block reader to a new block. This significantly reduces the number of
allocations when iterating through many compressed blocks. The following
measurements are done with `git reflog list` when listing 100k reflogs.
