dirstate-v2: Use 32-bit integers instead of 64-bit for offsets
This saves 12 bytes per node. (Nodes representing files or directories.)
These are offsets to other parts of the file. This would only be a limitation
for a `.hg/dirstate` file larger than 4 GiB, which would only happen for a
repository with dozens of millions of files and directories.

This directory is meant to cache artifacts useful for tests (such as bundle). Those artifacts need to be cached because they are slow to regenerate on each test but too large to be tracked within the repository. They are not expected to change between each run and can be cached. The `./scripts/` contains code to generate the artifact while the `cache` directory contains resulting artifact.
