Smallest typed payload carried through an A11 node.
A chunk contains owned bytes plus optional metadata, or a ref to data held
elsewhere. Serialization registries turn application objects into chunks;
NodeFragments add identity, sequence, and finality for streaming. An empty
octet-stream chunk is the explicit null/end marker used by unary flows.
