The user could always spoof the length in the headers, as well. The only
way to really validate the length would be to decompress the data, which
defeats the purpose of this interface.

In any case, I don't think it's a big deal for the length to be invalid.
The decompression code for all three compression types already handles
the case where the data decompresses to less than num_bytes by
zero-filling the remainder of the extent and the case where the data
decompresses to more than num_bytes by truncating the data.

The user can also give us garbage data that doesn't decompress at all.
In my opinion, it's fair to document that if the compressed data is
malformed, the result of reading that data is undefined, as long as we
don't crash or leak disk contents or anything like that.
