+        * If set to `null_rle`, run-length encoding of `NULL` values is used. Applies to nullable columns that are not listed in index `parts`.

+        For example:

+           local format = {
+               { 'c1', 'unsigned' },

+           })
+
+        In this example, the `null_rle` layout is applied to `c2, `c3`, `c5`
