Review Comment:
   I thin somewhere in here we should very briefly mention that manifest DVs 
may also be set on PRE-V4 manifest entries in the root. That's important to 
make sure we don't force additional write amplification when trying to produce 
combined entries into new V4 entries. At the moment, the spec doesn't 
explicitly restrict that, and nor should we but we should also make it clear 
that writers may choose to do that to prevent any confusion.
