903ea54857 RAA: clean up the RAA infrastructure, make it support larger indicies
Make the RAA infrastructure a bit cleaner, make it support 64-bit
indicies, and reduce the memory overhead of a sparse or small RAA --
the old code would allocate a *minimum* of 256K for each RAA.  The new
code reduces that to 16K, and will not mandatorily allocate an entry
in the zero position.

The new shift, 11, was chosen so that a 32-bit RAA value will need 3
layers and a 64-bit value 6 layers, without excessive waste.

e39202c96a RAA: add functions for storing pointers in RAA's
RAAs can, and should be, usable for storing pointers as well as
integers. In reality it is exactly the same code, but make it explicit
by having different entry points.  In the actual RAA the data is
stored as a union, which in practice will not occupy any more space
than the existing code.

Make the source code easier to understand and keep track of by
organizing it into subdirectories depending on the function.
