Description
Our roaringArray struct has a fake conserz []containerSerz array that is used only to satisfy msgp's requirements during message unpacking. Though it solves the problem at hand with minimal harm, it is not very elegant.
I think we could probably do something more elegant.

Research direction
Start by locating the roaringArray struct and the msgp message-unpacking path that requires the fake conserz []containerSerz field. Determine an alternative that removes the field without breaking message unpacking; done means the workaround is gone and existing serialization behavior remains intact.
