THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!

To the contrast, indexing engine usually read fields in random order with O(N) complexity on average.
We In Ignite 1.5 we need to change the protocol so that field position could be found in ~O(1) on average.
The following changes are proposed:
Resulting object layout (unrelated header pieces are ommited):
[0 .. 4 ] - Footer offset; could be zero if the whole object is written in raw mode.
[4 .. 8 ] - Schema ID. Absent in case footer offset is zero.
[8 .. X ] - Field 1.
[X .. Y ] - Field 2.
[Y .. Y+4 ] - Footer start, field 1 ID.
[Y+4 .. Y+8 ] - Field 1 offset.
[Y+8 .. Y+12] - Field 2 ID, etc.
