Hello, when the state framework was developed the underlying raw format was simpler (only one checksum and no length) and no meta data for direct buckets. To be able to keep the binary representation with the current state framework this patch series introduces the old "raw" format as "rawcompat" and teaches the direct bucket backend to skip writing meta data in some cases. This is v2 of the series, compared to v1 this also updates the documentation.
