NAK, at least in this form that duplicates the same information in
ce_namelen (new field) and bits in ce_flags, making it easier for
them to go out of sync with new bugs (or misconversions in this
patch, if there is one).

At least, keep the ce_namelen() inline used in the existing calling
site, as the whole point of it is that they do not have to care how
the name length is stored or computed.
