No functional change. The point of this commit is to make it possible to stash a few flags in leaf nodes as well as branch nodes, though we don't yet exercise this possibility in any meaningful way. This fixes a foolish mistake in the original qp trie data structure declarations: the combination of unions and bitfields is a complete disaster for portability, and it gets into dangerous territory wrt compiler optimization. Instead, we just use a big enough word (uint64_t) which is broken up into fields using accessor macros and inline functions, and cast it to a pointer when necessary. We don't actually care about the detailed layout in memory, just the numeric value, so a union was the wrong tool.
