Brotli compression format

Daniel Chýlek b5033d0e1e Fix brotlidump.py crashing when complex prefix code has exactly 1 non-zero code length (#635)
According to the format specification regarding complex prefix codes:

> If there are at least two non-zero code lengths, any trailing zero
> code lengths are omitted, i.e., the last code length in the
> sequence must be non-zero.  In this case, the sum of (32 >> code
> length) over all the non-zero code lengths must equal to 32.

> If the lengths have been read for the entire code length alphabet
> and there was only one non-zero code length, then the prefix code
> has one symbol whose code has zero length.

The script does not handle a case where there is just 1 non-zero code
length where the sum rule doesn't apply, which causes a StopIteration
exception when it attempts to read past the list boundaries.

An example of such file is tests/testdata/mapsdatazrh.compressed. I made
sure this change doesn't break anything by processing all *.compressed
files from the testdata folder with no thrown exceptions.

Brotli

Introduction

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.

Build instructions

Autotools-style CMake

configure-cmake is an autotools-style configure script for CMake-based projects (not supported on Windows).

The basic commands to build, test and install brotli are:

$ mkdir out && cd out
$ ../configure-cmake
$ make
$ make test
$ make install

By default, debug binaries are built. To generate "release" Makefile specify --disable-debug option to configure-cmake.

Bazel

See Bazel

CMake

The basic commands to build and install brotli are:

$ mkdir out && cd out
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=./installed ..
$ cmake --build . --config Release --target install

You can use other CMake configuration.

Premake5

See Premake5

Python

To install the latest release of the Python module, run the following:

$ pip install brotli

To install the tip-of-the-tree version, run:

$ pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/google/brotli

See the Python readme for more details on installing from source, development, and testing.
