I agree with you. But I still not sure why in Qemu we selected 'uint32_t' for
length and why its not consistent everywhere? If in good case we expect 'length > 256'
bytes I will do the change and spin new version.

And if we are sure length will be '<=256' bytes, I think validating 'footerSecId' in
a new patch should avoid us parsing corrupt file. What you suggest here?
