//       2->5  fFirst    = First free byte of first free segment                  TFree::fFirst
//       6->9  fLast     = Byte after last free byte of first free segment        TFree::fLast
//       ....  Sequentially, Version, fFirst and fLast of additional free segments.
//       ....  There is always one free segment beginning at file end and ending before 2000000000.
