Well, we don't have a 'chain' of store mem buffers anymore. It's now a
random access no-contiguous splay.

That forms the basis for range combining from upstream + store, and
other such funky things.

To separate out into hot cache and transit objects, refcounting is
needed, along with a separation between in-creation and created buffers.
