`COUNT`: 1-byte unsigned integer (1–255) indicating how many secrets are included.
`INDIVIDUAL_SECRET`: 32-byte serialization of the derived individual secret.
Note: the individual secrets vector should not contain duplicates. Implementations
MAY deduplicate secrets during encoding or parsing.

Encoders SHOULD append random decoy `INDIVIDUAL_SECRET` entries to hide the exact
number of real decryption keys. The total count SHOULD be rounded up to the
