Review Comment:
   I think `list<i64>` (or optional) for uncompressed size with same length as 
"OffsetIndex" is suitable for you case. You can draft first since this patch 
need 2 language impl as poc, so might take some time. And you can first store 
in key-value-metadata to test if this works :-)
