Description

Store EdgeStorageInner/NodeStorageInner::t_len() as metadata to avoid scanning all segments when loading a graph, this is needed to know where to continue from for future event ids. The correct place to store this information seems to be LayerStats.

Research direction

Start with EdgeStorageInner::t_len(), NodeStorageInner::t_len(), and LayerStats to trace how temporal update counts are currently derived while loading a graph. Store the counts as metadata in LayerStats so loading avoids scanning all segments and future event IDs can continue from the correct position.
