ZSTD_frameParams => ZSTD_frameHeader
ZSTD_getFrameParams() -> ZSTD_getFrameHeader()
The new naming is more distinctive from ZSTD_frameParameters,
which is used during compression.
ZSTD_frameHeader is clearer in its intention to described frame header content.
It also implies we are decoding a ZSTD frame, hence we are at decoding stage.
added a parameter streaming,
to estimate memory allocation size
when the CCtx is used for streaming (CStream).
Note : this function is not able to estimate
memory cost of a potential internal CDict
which can only happen when starting with ZSTD_initCStream_usingDict()
It inflates binary sizes, which is negative for the Windows build.
It also makes it impossible to check if 2 different source codes
get nonetheless compiled to the same binary,
since checksum will be different, due to integrated source code.
Previous -18 : 4.7 MB/s, R:3.833
New -18 : 5.1 MB/s. R:3.825
It's a better fit within -17 (6.8 MB/s) and -19 (4.0 MB/s)
The new level 18 also uses significantly less memory.
And, it makes a good transition between level 17 (mml5)
and level 19 (mml3).
Up to now, there was no level with mml4.
(note : minmatch setting can have a large impact on some (specific) datasets)
It now only uses compressionParameters as argument.
It produces many changes throughout user code,
though hopefully they tend to be simple :
just provide the cParams part from existing ZSTD_parameters.
Some programs might depend on ZSTD_createCDict_advanced() to pass frame parameters.
This change will force them to revisit this strategy and fix it,
since frame parameters are effectively silently ignored in current version.
clearer separation between variables and buffers
clearer buffers category
kept static buffers at the beginning, favoring cache locality
(it will be easier to add FSE tables there later)
This break a few assumptions that hashTable was always at the beginning.
This is fixed.
And remaining assumptions (namely that tables stand next to each other in memory)
are now tested with assert.
