* Version <= 0.5 could read beyond the end of `dumps`, which points into
the input buffer.
* Check the validity of `dumps` before using it, if it is out of bounds
return garbage values. There is no return code for this function.
* Introduce `MEM_readLE24()` for simplicity, since I don't want to trust
that there is an extra byte after `dumps`.
