BROTLI DATA COMPRESSIOM LIBRARY

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data
using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding
and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed
with deflate but offers more dense compression.

The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7932

Update (#620) * add autotools build * separate semantic and ABI version * extract sources.lst (used by CMake and Automake) * share pkgconfig templates (used by CMake and Automake) * decoder: always set `total_out` * encoder: fix `BROTLI_ENSURE_CAPACITY` macro (no-op after preprocessor) * decoder/encoder: refine `free_func` contract 2017-11-28 14:37:28 +00:00			`BROTLI DATA COMPRESSIOM LIBRARY`
