Casper 35e2cac6eb Store vtables sorted in Rust builder (#6765)
* benchmark many vtables

* Rust: Store written_table rev-positions sorted.

The previous implementation was slow if there were too many tables.

Asymototically when inserting the n^th vtable: The old implementation
took O(n) lookup steps and O(1) insertion. The new implementation is
O(log n) lookup and O(n) insertion. This might be improved further by
using a balanced btree.

Benchmarking, create_many_tables is 7.5x faster (on my laptop):

// Simple vector cache
test create_many_tables ... bench: 728,875 ns/iter (+/- 12,279) = 44 MB/s

// Sorted vector cache
test create_many_tables ... bench: 97,843 ns/iter (+/- 4,430) = 334 MB/s

* Fix lints

Flatbuffers

FlatBuffers is a cross platform serialization library architected for maximum memory efficiency. It allows you to directly access serialized data without parsing/unpacking it first, while still having great forwards/backwards compatibility. It was originally created at Google for game development and other performance-critical applications.
