We don't have to pad 'short' records.

When writing a row, we reserve 120 bytes from the first node so that we
can write our 'B+Tree Graph Index' signature and other meta-information.
For the root node, we don't always use the 120 bytes, and for non-root
rows, we don't use that data at all. So we usually pad back that
record. However, for indexes that fit entirely in the root record,
we don't pad them to 4096, and it turns out we don't need to pad
them with the spare 120 bytes either.

I was doing a test with lots of 'chained' btree indexes, and this
extra padding ended up being 4.6M => 4.3M of wasted space. I imagine
that bzr-search will have a similar issue with tiny indexes.
