[theora] Ogg index and Skeleton 4.0

I am assuming the radix field is part of the index procedure? It would
be good to give a brief spec on what it does in the skeleton spec (I
wasn't able to find out what it does).

Monty mentioned that the predelay would be a small positive integer,
so a 16bit unsigned int may be sufficient. Monty, can you confirm?

Cheers,
Silvia.
