Varint size max #9

Description

@jbenet

Should we have the varint size max be 64bits like the go one? (for the foreseeable future).

This should address criticisms we have received about this flexibility leading to problems.

@Kubuxu please consider and if you agree, let's just do it. I cannot recall a good reason to leave it broader. if we need more space in the future, we can always grow it then. those kinds of sizes give us probably decades, even if the multicodec table starts growing fast.
