Frediano Ziglio 302e30ff43 codegen: Remove support for --ptrsize
This option was used in protocol 1 to generate 64 bit pointers.
A pointer in the protocol is an offset in the current message.
This allows the possibility to have messages with pointers with more
than 4GB. This feature was removed and not used in protocol 2.
The reason this feature was correctly removed in protocol 2 is that
having 64 bit pointers in the protocol would require messages larger
than 4GB which would cause:
- huge latency as a single message would take more than 4 seconds
  to be send in a 10Gb connection;
- huge memory requirements.
