tlv: zero alloc encoding for extended types

This commit adds concrete encoding methods for primitive integral types.
When external libs need to create custom encoders, this allows them to
do so without incurring an extra allocation on the heap. Previously, the
need to pass a pointer to the integer using an interface{} would cause
the argument to escape, which we avoid by having them copied directly.
