index: don't right-pad paths when writing compressed entries Our code to write index entries to disk does not check whether the entry that is to be written should use prefix compression for the path. As such, we were overallocating memory and added bogus right-padding into the resulting index entries. As there is no padding allowed in the index version 4 format, this should actually result in an invalid index. Fix this by re-using the newly extracted `index_entry_size` function.
