I fluffed the header some more, so to have all doubles
for georeference. After all what does it pay to have a mixed
float/double georef ? (and GDAL uses double precision for that).

Also added example total sizes of single band on-disk rasters.
A 64x64 16bit band won't fit in a default potgresql page size,
an 8bit band of that dimension would.
