Well I'd rather also leave one bit to mark a count to be one byte's
length or in a cell size. In this case I would have 127 bytes or
whatever limited by cell size. And decoding is seems not to be very
complex: you always read the whole cell and (on big-endian architecture)
just shift the count to get one byte value if the flag is not set of
just mask the high byte if it's set . For little endian architecture it
seems better to store the flag in lower bit in the first byte of
counter. Then always rshift the count by 1.
