Don't variable-length encode magic iface constant.
We changed to use variable length encodings for many types by default,
including Word32. This makes sense for numbers but not when Word32 is
meant to represent four bytes.
I added a FixedLengthEncoding newtype to Binary who's instances
interpret their argument as a collection of bytes instead of a number.
We then use this when writing/reading magic numbers to the iface file.
I also took the libery to remove the dummy iface field.
This fixes #18180.
