util.datamanager: Pad list writes to avoid crossing block boundaries By padding items so that they do not cross block boundaries, it becomes eaiser to delete whole blocks with fallocate() without cutting items in half, improving efficiency of such operations. Since list stores are used for message archives, where the most common deletion operation would be of the oldest entires, at the top of the file. With this, all blocks that contain items to be removed could be deleted without needing to read, delete and write out the whole file.

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
