Message points to the whole message struct which includes header, payload
and footer. You need it when you need to manipulate the message struct. For
instance - set acknowledgment or Tx power.
The payload pointer is a pointer to the payload inside the above mentioned
struct.You should use it when you need to change / add actual payload to
your message.
