The file structure stars with magic and version number, followed by a list of The turbonss header looks like this:
User, Group records and their indices. All indices are number of bytes,
relative to the beginning of the file.

As of writing the file header is 40 bytes. the File block fits to 64 bytes anyway, we are keeping them as u32 now.
