Oh, just some trivial things (e.g. use a field in the
header, hdr->chunks to indicate the number of chunks
in the payload) that wasn't confirmed.

I will prepare the new version with fixing the agreed issues,
and we can continue to discuss those parts if you still find
them improper.

Yes, I think we can. So, is it good to change to use the
previous 64-bit chunk format (52-bit base + 12-bit size)?
