Leonid Bloch 1240ac558d include: Add a comment to explain the origin of sizes' lookup table
The lookup table for power-of-two sizes was added in commit 540b849261
for the purpose of having convenient shortcuts for these sizes in cases
when the literal number has to be present at compile time, and
expressions as '(1 * KiB)' can not be used. One such case is the
stringification of sizes. Beyond that, it is convenient to use these
shortcuts for all power-of-two sizes, even if they don't have to be
literal numbers.

Despite its convenience, this table introduced 55 lines of "dumb" code,
the purpose and origin of which are obscure without reading the message
of the commit which introduced it. This patch fixes that by adding a
comment to the code itself with a brief explanation for the reasoning
behind this table. This comment includes the short AWK script that
generated the table, so that anyone who's interested could make sure
that the values in it are correct (otherwise these values look as if
they were typed manually).
