fix #71
Overview
This PR updates the last_path encoding mechanism in embulk-input-gcs. Instead of using a fixed 1-byte length field (limiting paths to 127 bytes), the new implementation uses a varint length field, which can span 1–2 bytes, to represent the length of the UTF-8 encoded string.
Why Is It Necessary?
GCP object names can be up to 1024 bytes in length. The previous implementation’s 1-byte length field restricted last_path to 128 characters, causing errors when handling longer object names. Switching to a varint length field removes this limitation and ensures that the plugin can support all valid GCP object names.
