Add a max_value field option to api_options.proto that tells the code
generator the maximum value a field can have. When max_value < 128,
the generated calculate_size() uses constant arithmetic instead of
calling varint size functions, and encode() uses direct byte writes
instead of varint encoding.
Also optimize FixedArrayBytesType: when fixed_array_size < 128, the
length varint is always 1 byte, so calculate_size() uses constant
arithmetic and encode() uses write_raw_byte for the length.
Applied to BluetoothLERawAdvertisement.address_type (max_value=4).
Measured on ESP32 (upstairsdesk89proxy):
- BluetoothLERawAdvertisement::calculate_size: 88 → 71 bytes (-19%)
- BluetoothLERawAdvertisement::encode: 199 → 179 bytes (-10%)
- Total BLE proxy hot path: 1807 → 1770 bytes (-37 bytes)
