The commit message doesn't say anything about the start_byte_offset
addition and the num_slices documentation improvement. It probably

This should mention that it should be set to 0 for SLICE_BASED decoding mode.

And start_byte_offset should be set to 0.

And start_byte_offset should be filled in accordingly for each slice.
