Alternatively... I'd like to change all our uses of apr_int64_t for
(wc_id, repos_id, op_depth) to plain "int".  I think that would be
better because it would only occupy one syllable of thought-space rather
than eight syllables.  And I believe there's no functional or
programmatic reason or benefit for having these three types be int64_t.

To do that, I would need to introduce an additional type letter into the
"bindf" format, because some parameters will still need to be int64_t (I
can't remember what, but I looked at this before and there were some).
Note that revnum_t is not relevant because it already has its own type
letter "r".

I was thinking like this, in sequential steps:
 
  1. In "bindf" introduce letter "I" for int64_t (in parallel with the
current "i" which is currently for int64_t).

  2. Change bindf's callers to use "I" for any parameters that are still
going to be using int64_t (i.e. not wc_id, repos_id, or op_depth).

  3. Change the types of (wc_id, repos_id, op_depth) variables
throughout the code to "int", and simultaneously change "bindf" so type
code "i" means plain "int".

Thoughts?
