Add file header (on-disk-format change)
Format: [ "Version" uint16 big endian ] [ "Id" 16 random bytes ] Quoting SECURITY.md: * Every file has a header that contains a 16-byte random *file id* * Each block uses the file id and its block number as GCM *authentication data* * This means the position of the blocks is protected as well. The blocks can not be reordered or copied between different files without causing an decryption error.
