index: make the entries have more accurate sizes
While we are confident about the size of an int in architectures we're likely to care about, the index format is defined by the exact size of the fields. Use the definitions which show the exact width of the entry fields. As part of that, bring back 32-bit time and size fields, which currently are 64 bits wide and can bring a false sense of security in how much data they really store. Document that these fields are not to be taken as authoritative.
