Describes the format and contents of "repo diffs" aka "CAR slices". These are returned by some sync API endpoints, and included in the firehose.

The firehose and sync details will be described in a separate spec document.

Should we link to https://ipld.io/specs/transport/car/carv1/#summary in there somewhere? It's helpful to have a diagram to look at that explains the layout of bytes in a CAR file.

@ericvolp12 there is an existing section in the same specs page ("Repository") about CAR files generally (eg, repo exports) which links to that exact page
