This change loads the full symbol table when we open a persisted block
and allocates a string for each. This ensures that strings retrieved
through the index can be used after the block was closed.
Before we backed the strings by the mmap'd byte regions which would
segfault in this case.
Also remove an inconsistency in the disk format and move both offset
tables to the end (breaking change).
Change index persistence for series to not be accumulated in memory
before being written as one large batch. `Labels` and `ChunkMeta`
objects are reused.
This cuts down memory spikes during compaction of multiple blocks
significantly.
As part of the the Index{Reader,Writer} now have an explicit notion of
symbols and series must be inserted in order.
* Expose Stone as it is used in an exported method.
* Move from tombstoneReader to []Stone for the same reason as above.
* Make WAL reading a little cleaner.

This removes the flag from the label value index and serializes it using
encbufs.
TODO: move CRC32 checksum into label value index hash table for
referntial integrity.
