Somewhat ironically, there are exceptions to how `wia_except_list_t` structs are handled depending on what compression method is used for the group's data:
- For the compression method PURGE, the `wia_except_list_t` structs are stored uncompressed (in other words, before the first `wia_segment_t`). For BZIP2, LZMA and LZMA2, they are compressed along with the rest of the data.
- For the compression methods NONE and PURGE, if the end offset of the last ``wia_except_list_t`` is not evenly divisible by 4, padding is inserted after it so that the data afterwards will start at a 4 byte boundary. This padding is not inserted for the other compression methods.

Compared to `wia_group_t`, `rvz_group_t` changes the meaning of the most significant bit of `data_size` and adds one additional attribute.
"Compressed data" below means the data as it is stored in the file. When compression is disabled, this "compressed data" is actually not compressed.
