Two optimizations for the function signature search:
* Instead of using JSON arrays, like `[1,20]`, it uses VLQ
hex with no commas, like `[aAd]`.
* This also adds backrefs: if you have more than one function
with exactly the same signature, it'll not only store it once,
it'll *decode* it once, and store in the typeIdMap only once.

```console
$ du -bs search-index-old.js search-index-new.js
4976370 search-index-old.js
4404391 search-index-new.js
```
((4976370-4404391)/4404391)*100% = 12.9%
Benchmarks are similarly shrunk:
```console
$ du -hs tmp/{arti,cortex-m,sqlx,stm32f4,ripgrep}/toolchain_{old,new}/doc/search-index.js
10555067 tmp/arti/toolchain_old/doc/search-index.js
8921236 tmp/arti/toolchain_new/doc/search-index.js
77018 tmp/cortex-m/toolchain_old/doc/search-index.js
66676 tmp/cortex-m/toolchain_new/doc/search-index.js
