It lets us represent small checkpoint events more effectively, but more importantly, it allows for larger checkpoint / constant pool events because the event size pre-reservation no longer restricts them. The parser side will continue to read checkpoint event sizes as varints, but will expose the checkpoint event size as a long instead of an int.
