- Code wasted bits (RFC 9639 §9.2.2): low bits that are zero in every
sample of a subframe were stored anyway, so 16-bit audio exported at 24
or 32 bits grew by the padding.
- Allow residuals up to the 32-bit limit (§9.2.7.3). The limit was half
that, so at 32 bits a transient forced its whole block to verbatim.
- README: 32-bit FLAC codes stereo channels independently.
