LZ4_compress() :
Compresses 'isize' bytes from 'source' into 'dest'.
Destination buffer must be already allocated,
and must be sized to handle worst cases situations (input data not compressible)
Worst case size evaluation is provided by function LZ4_compressBound()
isize : is the input size. Max supported value is ~1.9GB
return : the number of bytes written in buffer dest
LZ4_uncompress() :
osize : is the output size, therefore the original size
return : the number of bytes read in the source buffer
If the source stream is malformed, the function will stop decoding and return a negative result, indicating the byte position of the faulty instruction
This function never writes outside of provided buffers, and never modifies input buffer.
note : destination buffer must be already allocated.
its size must be a minimum of 'osize' bytes.

LZ4_compressBound() :
Provides the maximum size that LZ4 may output in a "worst case" scenario (input data not compressible)
primarily useful for memory allocation of output buffer.
inline function is recommended for the general case,
but macro is also provided when results need to be evaluated at compile time (such as table size allocation).

LZ4_compress_limitedOutput() :
Compress 'isize' bytes from 'source' into an output buffer 'dest' of maximum size 'maxOutputSize'.
If it cannot achieve it, compression will stop, and result of the function will be zero.
This function never writes outside of provided output buffer.

LZ4_uncompress_unknownOutputSize() :
isize : is the input size, therefore the compressed size

return : the number of bytes decoded in the destination buffer (necessarily <= maxOutputSize)
If the source stream is malformed, the function will stop decoding and return a negative result, indicating the byte position of the faulty instruction
This function never writes beyond dest + maxOutputSize, and is therefore protected against malicious data packets
note : Destination buffer must be already allocated.
This version is slightly slower than LZ4_uncompress()
