Chunk append operation #18

This is more complicated in the case of partial chunk appends

RaasAhsan commented 2 years ago

The main issue with optimistic short append (#20 ) is that we may need to pad at chunk boundaries, wasting some network bandwidth as well since the client sent up some data. Should we accept this extra cost? It is a less of a problem if short appends are small (in the 10s of KB)
