util.datamanager: Pad list writes to avoid crossing block boundaries By padding items so that they do not cross block boundaries, it becomes eaiser to delete whole blocks with fallocate() without cutting items in half, improving efficiency of such operations. Since list stores are used for message archives, where the most common deletion operation would be of the oldest entires, at the top of the file. With this, all blocks that contain items to be removed could be deleted without needing to read, delete and write out the whole file.

-- Compatibility layer for bitwise operations

-- First try the bit32 lib
-- Lua 5.3 has it with compat enabled
-- Lua 5.2 has it by default

	-- Lua 5.3 and 5.4 would be able to use native infix operators
