Optimize manifest.add
Testing shows that manifest.add is spending a significant percentage of
its time running calcoffsets and doing text = "".join(addlist). This
patch removes the need for both of these by storying the manifest in a
character array, and using a modified bisect search to find lines without
the help of a separate index of line offsets.
manifest.add was also reworked to push delta construction/combination into the
main loop.
