 Conceptually, the line number table consists of a sequence of triples:
     start-offset (inclusive), end-offset (exclusive), line-number.

 However, storing the above sequence directly would be very inefficient as we would need 12 bytes per entry.
 
-First of all, we can note that the end of one entry is the same as the start of the next, so we can overlap entries.
-Secondly we also note that we don't really need arbitrary access to the sequence, so we can store deltas.

 We just need to store (end - start, line delta) pairs. The start offset of the first entry is always zero.
 
-Thirdly, most deltas are small, so we can use a single byte for each value, as long we allow several entries for the same line.

 A line delta of -128 is used to indicate no line number.
 A start delta of 255 is used as a sentinel to mark the end of the table.
