 /*******************************************************************************
   Introduction
 
   zstd, short for Zstandard, is a fast lossless compression algorithm, targeting
   real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level and better compression ratios.
   The zstd compression library provides in-memory compression and decompression
   functions.
 
   The library supports regular compression levels from 1 up to ZSTD_maxCLevel(),
   which is currently 22. Levels >= 20, labeled `--ultra`, should be used with
   caution, as they require more memory. The library also offers negative
   compression levels, which extend the range of speed vs. ratio preferences.
   The lower the level, the faster the speed (at the cost of compression).
 
   Compression can be done in:
     - a single step (described as Simple API)
     - a single step, reusing a context (described as Explicit context)
     - unbounded multiple steps (described as Streaming compression)
 
   The compression ratio achievable on small data can be highly improved using
   a dictionary. Dictionary compression can be performed in:
     - a single step (described as Simple dictionary API)
     - a single step, reusing a dictionary (described as Bulk-processing
       dictionary API)
 
   Advanced experimental functions can be accessed using
   `#define ZSTD_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY` before including zstd.h.
 
   Advanced experimental APIs should never be used with a dynamically-linked
   library. They are not "stable"; their definitions or signatures may change in
   the future. Only static linking is allowed.

 /*-***********************************************************************
 *  Streaming compression - HowTo
 *
 *  A ZSTD_CStream object is required to track streaming operation.
 *  Use ZSTD_createCStream() and ZSTD_freeCStream() to create/release resources.
 *  ZSTD_CStream objects can be reused multiple times on consecutive compression operations.
 *  It is recommended to reuse ZSTD_CStream since it will play nicer with system's memory, by re-using already allocated memory.
 *
 *  For parallel execution, use one separate ZSTD_CStream per thread.
 *
 *  note : since v1.3.0, ZSTD_CStream and ZSTD_CCtx are the same thing.
 *
 *  Parameters are sticky : when starting a new compression on the same context,
 *  it will reuse the same sticky parameters as previous compression session.
 *  When in doubt, it's recommended to fully initialize the context before usage.
 *  Use ZSTD_CCtx_reset() to reset the context and ZSTD_CCtx_setParameter(),
 *  ZSTD_CCtx_setPledgedSrcSize(), or ZSTD_CCtx_loadDictionary() and friends to
 *  set more specific parameters, the pledged source size, or load a dictionary.
 *
 *  Use ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_continue as many times as necessary to
 *  consume input stream. The function will automatically update both `pos`
 *  fields within `input` and `output`.
 *  Note that the function may not consume the entire input, for example, because
 *  the output buffer is already full, in which case `input.pos < input.size`.
 *  The caller must check if input has been entirely consumed.
 *  If not, the caller must make some room to receive more compressed data,
 *  and then present again remaining input data.
 *  note: ZSTD_e_continue is guaranteed to make some forward progress when called,
 *        but doesn't guarantee maximal forward progress. This is especially relevant
 *        when compressing with multiple threads. The call won't block if it can
 *        consume some input, but if it can't it will wait for some, but not all,
 *        output to be flushed.
 * @return : provides a minimum amount of data remaining to be flushed from internal buffers
 *           or an error code, which can be tested using ZSTD_isError().
 *
 *  At any moment, it's possible to flush whatever data might remain stuck within internal buffer,
 *  using ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_flush. `output->pos` will be updated.
 *  Note that, if `output->size` is too small, a single invocation with ZSTD_e_flush might not be enough (return code > 0).
 *  In which case, make some room to receive more compressed data, and call again ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_flush.
 *  You must continue calling ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_flush until it returns 0, at which point you can change the
 *  operation.
 *  note: ZSTD_e_flush will flush as much output as possible, meaning when compressing with multiple threads, it will
 *        block until the flush is complete or the output buffer is full.
 *  @return : 0 if internal buffers are entirely flushed,
 *            >0 if some data still present within internal buffer (the value is minimal estimation of remaining size),
 *            or an error code, which can be tested using ZSTD_isError().
 *
 *  Calling ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_end instructs to finish a frame.
 *  It will perform a flush and write frame epilogue.
 *  The epilogue is required for decoders to consider a frame completed.
 *  flush operation is the same, and follows same rules as calling ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_flush.
 *  You must continue calling ZSTD_compressStream2() with ZSTD_e_end until it returns 0, at which point you are free to
 *  start a new frame.
 *  note: ZSTD_e_end will flush as much output as possible, meaning when compressing with multiple threads, it will
 *        block until the flush is complete or the output buffer is full.
 *  @return : 0 if frame fully completed and fully flushed,
 *            >0 if some data still present within internal buffer (the value is minimal estimation of remaining size),
 *            or an error code, which can be tested using ZSTD_isError().

      *
      * Zstd currently supports the use of a CDict in three ways:
      *
      * - The contents of the CDict can be copied into the working context. This
      *   means that the compression can search both the dictionary and input
      *   while operating on a single set of internal tables. This makes
      *   the compression faster per-byte of input. However, the initial copy of
      *   the CDict's tables incurs a fixed cost at the beginning of the
      *   compression. For small compressions (< 8 KB), that copy can dominate
      *   the cost of the compression.
      *
      * - The CDict's tables can be used in-place. In this model, compression is
      *   slower per input byte, because the compressor has to search two sets of
      *   tables. However, this model incurs no start-up cost (as long as the
      *   working context's tables can be reused). For small inputs, this can be
      *   faster than copying the CDict's tables.
      *
      * - The CDict's tables are not used at all, and instead we use the working
      *   context alone to reload the dictionary and use params based on the source
      *   size. See ZSTD_compress_insertDictionary() and ZSTD_compress_usingDict().
      *   This method is effective when the dictionary sizes are very small relative
      *   to the input size, and the input size is fairly large to begin with.
      *
      * Zstd has a simple internal heuristic that selects which strategy to use
      * at the beginning of a compression. However, if experimentation shows that
      * Zstd is making poor choices, it is possible to override that choice with

  * If a dictionary is included, then the cctx should reference the dict (see: ZSTD_CCtx_refCDict(), ZSTD_CCtx_loadDictionary(), etc.).
  * The entire source is compressed into a single frame.
  *
  * The compression behavior changes based on cctx params. In particular:
  *    If ZSTD_c_blockDelimiters == ZSTD_sf_noBlockDelimiters, the array of ZSTD_Sequence is expected to contain
  *    no block delimiters (defined in ZSTD_Sequence). Block boundaries are roughly determined based on
  *    the block size derived from the cctx, and sequences may be split. This is the default setting.
  *
  *    If ZSTD_c_blockDelimiters == ZSTD_sf_explicitBlockDelimiters, the array of ZSTD_Sequence is expected to contain
  *    valid block delimiters (defined in ZSTD_Sequence). Behavior is undefined if no block delimiters are provided.
  *
  *    When ZSTD_c_blockDelimiters == ZSTD_sf_explicitBlockDelimiters, it's possible to decide generating repcodes
  *    using the advanced parameter ZSTD_c_repcodeResolution. Repcodes will improve compression ratio, though the benefit
  *    can vary greatly depending on Sequences. On the other hand, repcode resolution is an expensive operation.
  *    By default, it's disabled at low (<10) compression levels, and enabled above the threshold (>=10).
  *    ZSTD_c_repcodeResolution makes it possible to directly manage this processing in either direction.
  *
  *    If ZSTD_c_validateSequences == 0, this function blindly accepts the Sequences provided. Invalid Sequences cause undefined
  *    behavior. If ZSTD_c_validateSequences == 1, then the function will detect invalid Sequences (see doc/zstd_compression_format.md for
  *    specifics regarding offset/matchlength requirements) and then bail out and return an error.
  *
  *    In addition to the two adjustable experimental params, there are other important cctx params.
  *    - ZSTD_c_minMatch MUST be set as less than or equal to the smallest match generated by the match finder. It has a minimum value of ZSTD_MINMATCH_MIN.
  *    - ZSTD_c_compressionLevel accordingly adjusts the strength of the entropy coder, as it would in typical compression.
  *    - ZSTD_c_windowLog affects offset validation: this function will return an error at higher debug levels if a provided offset
  *      is larger than what the spec allows for a given window log and dictionary (if present). See: doc/zstd_compression_format.md
  *
  * Note: Repcodes are, as of now, always re-calculated within this function, ZSTD_Sequence.rep is effectively unused.
  * Dev Note: Once ability to ingest repcodes become available, the explicit block delims mode must respect those repcodes exactly,
  *         and cannot emit an RLE block that disagrees with the repcode history.
  * @return : final compressed size, or a ZSTD error code.

 /* Controls whether the new and experimental "dedicated dictionary search
  * structure" can be used. This feature is still rough around the edges, be
  * prepared for surprising behavior!
  *
  * How to use it:
  *
  * When using a CDict, whether to use this feature or not is controlled at
  * CDict creation, and it must be set in a CCtxParams set passed into that
  * construction (via ZSTD_createCDict_advanced2()). A compression will then
  * use the feature or not based on how the CDict was constructed; the value of
  * this param, set in the CCtx, will have no effect.
  *
  * However, when a dictionary buffer is passed into a CCtx, such as via
  * ZSTD_CCtx_loadDictionary(), this param can be set on the CCtx to control
  * whether the CDict that is created internally can use the feature or not.
  *
  * What it does:
  *
  * Normally, the internal data structures of the CDict are analogous to what
  * would be stored in a CCtx after compressing the contents of a dictionary.
  * To an approximation, a compression using a dictionary can then use those
  * data structures to simply continue what is effectively a streaming
  * compression where the simulated compression of the dictionary left off.
  * Which is to say, the search structures in the CDict are normally the same
  * format as in the CCtx.
  *
  * It is possible to do better, since the CDict is not like a CCtx: the search
  * structures are written once during CDict creation, and then are only read
  * after that, while the search structures in the CCtx are both read and
  * written as the compression goes along. This means we can choose a search
  * structure for the dictionary that is read-optimized.
  *
  * This feature enables the use of that different structure.
  *
  * Note that some of the members of the ZSTD_compressionParameters struct have
  * different semantics and constraints in the dedicated search structure. It is
  * highly recommended that you simply set a compression level in the CCtxParams
  * you pass into the CDict creation call, and avoid messing with the cParams
  * directly.
  *
  * Effects:
  *
  * This will only have any effect when the selected ZSTD_strategy
  * implementation supports this feature. Currently, that's limited to
  * ZSTD_greedy, ZSTD_lazy, and ZSTD_lazy2.
  *
  * Note that this means that the CDict tables can no longer be copied into the
  * CCtx, so the dict attachment mode ZSTD_dictForceCopy will no longer be
  * usable. The dictionary can only be attached or reloaded.
  *
  * In general, you should expect compression to be faster--sometimes very much
  * so--and CDict creation to be slightly slower. Eventually, we will probably
  * make this mode the default.

 /* ********************* BLOCK-LEVEL SEQUENCE PRODUCER API *********************
  *
  * *** OVERVIEW ***
  * The Block-Level Sequence Producer API allows users to provide their own custom
  * sequence producer which libzstd invokes to process each block. The produced list
  * of sequences (literals and matches) is then post-processed by libzstd to produce
  * valid compressed blocks.
  *
  * This block-level offload API is a more granular complement of the existing
  * frame-level offload API compressSequences() (introduced in v1.5.1). It offers
  * an easier migration story for applications already integrated with libzstd: the
  * user application continues to invoke the same compression functions
  * ZSTD_compress2() or ZSTD_compressStream2() as usual, and transparently benefits
  * from the specific advantages of the external sequence producer. For example,
  * the sequence producer could be tuned to take advantage of known characteristics
  * of the input, to offer better speed / ratio, or could leverage hardware
  * acceleration not available within libzstd itself.
  *
  * See contrib/externalSequenceProducer for an example program employing the
  * Block-Level Sequence Producer API.
  *
  * *** USAGE ***
  * The user is responsible for implementing a function of type
  * ZSTD_sequenceProducer_F. For each block, zstd will pass the following
  * arguments to the user-provided function:
  *
  *   - sequenceProducerState: a pointer to a user-managed state for the sequence
  *     producer.
  *
  *   - outSeqs, outSeqsCapacity: an output buffer for the sequence producer.
  *     outSeqsCapacity is guaranteed >= ZSTD_sequenceBound(srcSize). The memory
  *     backing outSeqs is managed by the CCtx.
  *
  *   - src, srcSize: an input buffer for the sequence producer to parse.
  *     srcSize is guaranteed to be <= ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_MAX.
  *
  *   - dict, dictSize: a history buffer, which may be empty, which the sequence
  *     producer may reference as it parses the src buffer. Currently, zstd will
  *     always pass dictSize == 0 into external sequence producers, but this will
  *     change in the future.
  *
  *   - compressionLevel: a signed integer representing the zstd compression level
  *     set by the user for the current operation. The sequence producer may choose
  *     to use this information to change its compression strategy and speed/ratio
  *     tradeoff. Note: the compression level does not reflect zstd parameters set
  *     through the advanced API.
  *
  *   - windowSize: a size_t representing the maximum allowed offset for external
  *     sequences. Note that sequence offsets are sometimes allowed to exceed the
  *     windowSize if a dictionary is present, see doc/zstd_compression_format.md
  *     for details.
  *
  * The user-provided function shall return a size_t representing the number of
  * sequences written to outSeqs. This return value will be treated as an error
  * code if it is greater than outSeqsCapacity. The return value must be non-zero
  * if srcSize is non-zero. The ZSTD_SEQUENCE_PRODUCER_ERROR macro is provided
  * for convenience, but any value greater than outSeqsCapacity will be treated as
  * an error code.
  *
  * If the user-provided function does not return an error code, the sequences
  * written to outSeqs must be a valid parse of the src buffer. Data corruption may
  * occur if the parse is not valid. A parse is defined to be valid if the
  * following conditions hold:
  *   - The sum of matchLengths and literalLengths must equal srcSize.
  *   - All sequences in the parse, except for the final sequence, must have
  *     matchLength >= ZSTD_MINMATCH_MIN. The final sequence must have
  *     matchLength >= ZSTD_MINMATCH_MIN or matchLength == 0.
  *   - All offsets must respect the windowSize parameter as specified in
  *     doc/zstd_compression_format.md.
  *   - If the final sequence has matchLength == 0, it must also have offset == 0.
  *
  * zstd will only validate these conditions (and fail compression if they do not
  * hold) if the ZSTD_c_validateSequences cParam is enabled. Note that sequence
  * validation has a performance cost.
  *
  * If the user-provided function returns an error, zstd will either fall back
  * to an internal sequence producer or fail the compression operation. The user can
  * choose between the two behaviors by setting the ZSTD_c_enableSeqProducerFallback
  * cParam. Fallback compression will follow any other cParam settings, such as
  * compression level, the same as in a normal compression operation.
  *
  * The user shall instruct zstd to use a particular ZSTD_sequenceProducer_F
  * function by calling
  *         ZSTD_registerSequenceProducer(cctx,
  *                                       sequenceProducerState,
  *                                       sequenceProducer)
  * This setting will persist until the next parameter reset of the CCtx.
  *
  * The sequenceProducerState must be initialized by the user before calling
  * ZSTD_registerSequenceProducer(). The user is responsible for destroying the
  * sequenceProducerState.
  *
  * *** LIMITATIONS ***
  * This API is compatible with all zstd compression APIs which respect advanced parameters.
  * However, there are three limitations:
  *
  * First, the ZSTD_c_enableLongDistanceMatching cParam is not currently supported.
  * COMPRESSION WILL FAIL if it is enabled and the user tries to compress with a block-level
  * external sequence producer.
  *   - Note that ZSTD_c_enableLongDistanceMatching is auto-enabled by default in some
  *     cases (see its documentation for details). Users must explicitly set
  *     ZSTD_c_enableLongDistanceMatching to ZSTD_ps_disable in such cases if an external
  *     sequence producer is registered.
  *   - As of this writing, ZSTD_c_enableLongDistanceMatching is disabled by default
  *     whenever ZSTD_c_windowLog < 128MB, but that's subject to change. Users should
  *     check the docs on ZSTD_c_enableLongDistanceMatching whenever the Block-Level Sequence
  *     Producer API is used in conjunction with advanced settings (like ZSTD_c_windowLog).
  *
  * Second, history buffers are not currently supported. Concretely, zstd will always pass
  * dictSize == 0 to the external sequence producer (for now). This has two implications:
  *   - Dictionaries are not currently supported. Compression will *not* fail if the user
  *     references a dictionary, but the dictionary won't have any effect.
  *   - Stream history is not currently supported. All advanced compression APIs, including
  *     streaming APIs, work with external sequence producers, but each block is treated as
  *     an independent chunk without history from previous blocks.
  *
  * Third, multi-threading within a single compression is not currently supported. In other words,
  * COMPRESSION WILL FAIL if ZSTD_c_nbWorkers > 0 and an external sequence producer is registered.
  * Multi-threading across compressions is fine: simply create one CCtx per thread.
  *
  * Long-term, we plan to overcome all three limitations. There is no technical blocker to
  * overcoming them. It is purely a question of engineering effort.

   Buffer-less streaming compression (synchronous mode)
 
   A ZSTD_CCtx object is required to track streaming operations.
   Use ZSTD_createCCtx() / ZSTD_freeCCtx() to manage resource.
   ZSTD_CCtx object can be reused multiple times within successive compression operations.
 
   Start by initializing a context.
   Use ZSTD_compressBegin(), or ZSTD_compressBegin_usingDict() for dictionary compression.
 
   Then, consume your input using ZSTD_compressContinue().
   There are some important considerations to keep in mind when using this advanced function :
   - ZSTD_compressContinue() has no internal buffer. It uses externally provided buffers only.
   - Interface is synchronous : input is consumed entirely and produces 1+ compressed blocks.
   - Caller must ensure there is enough space in `dst` to store compressed data under worst case scenario.
     Worst case evaluation is provided by ZSTD_compressBound().
     ZSTD_compressContinue() doesn't guarantee recover after a failed compression.
   - ZSTD_compressContinue() presumes prior input ***is still accessible and unmodified*** (up to maximum distance size, see WindowLog).
     It remembers all previous contiguous blocks, plus one separated memory segment (which can itself consists of multiple contiguous blocks)
   - ZSTD_compressContinue() detects that prior input has been overwritten when `src` buffer overlaps.
     In which case, it will "discard" the relevant memory section from its history.
 
   Finish a frame with ZSTD_compressEnd(), which will write the last block(s) and optional checksum.
   It's possible to use srcSize==0, in which case, it will write a final empty block to end the frame.
   Without last block mark, frames are considered unfinished (hence corrupted) by compliant decoders.
 
   `ZSTD_CCtx` object can be reused (ZSTD_compressBegin()) to compress again.

   Buffer-less streaming decompression (synchronous mode)
 
   A ZSTD_DCtx object is required to track streaming operations.
   Use ZSTD_createDCtx() / ZSTD_freeDCtx() to manage it.
   A ZSTD_DCtx object can be reused multiple times.
 
   First typical operation is to retrieve frame parameters, using ZSTD_getFrameHeader().
   Frame header is extracted from the beginning of compressed frame, so providing only the frame's beginning is enough.
   Data fragment must be large enough to ensure successful decoding.
  `ZSTD_frameHeaderSize_max` bytes is guaranteed to always be large enough.
   result  : 0 : successful decoding, the `ZSTD_frameHeader` structure is correctly filled.
            >0 : `srcSize` is too small, please provide at least result bytes on next attempt.
            errorCode, which can be tested using ZSTD_isError().
 
   It fills a ZSTD_FrameHeader structure with important information to correctly decode the frame,
   such as the dictionary ID, content size, or maximum back-reference distance (`windowSize`).
   Note that these values could be wrong, either because of data corruption, or because a 3rd party deliberately spoofs false information.
   As a consequence, check that values remain within valid application range.
   For example, do not allocate memory blindly, check that `windowSize` is within expectation.
   Each application can set its own limits, depending on local restrictions.
   For extended interoperability, it is recommended to support `windowSize` of at least 8 MB.
 
   ZSTD_decompressContinue() needs previous data blocks during decompression, up to `windowSize` bytes.
   ZSTD_decompressContinue() is very sensitive to contiguity,
   if 2 blocks don't follow each other, make sure that either the compressor breaks contiguity at the same place,
   or that previous contiguous segment is large enough to properly handle maximum back-reference distance.
   There are multiple ways to guarantee this condition.
 
   The most memory efficient way is to use a round buffer of sufficient size.
   Sufficient size is determined by invoking ZSTD_decodingBufferSize_min(),
   which can return an error code if required value is too large for current system (in 32-bits mode).
   In a round buffer methodology, ZSTD_decompressContinue() decompresses each block next to previous one,
   up to the moment there is not enough room left in the buffer to guarantee decoding another full block,
   which maximum size is provided in `ZSTD_frameHeader` structure, field `blockSizeMax`.
   At which point, decoding can resume from the beginning of the buffer.
   Note that already decoded data stored in the buffer should be flushed before being overwritten.
 
   There are alternatives possible, for example using two or more buffers of size `windowSize` each, though they consume more memory.
 
   Finally, if you control the compression process, you can also ignore all buffer size rules,
   as long as the encoder and decoder progress in "lock-step",
   aka use exactly the same buffer sizes, break contiguity at the same place, etc.
 
   Once buffers are setup, start decompression, with ZSTD_decompressBegin().
   If decompression requires a dictionary, use ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDict() or ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDDict().
 
   Then use ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() and ZSTD_decompressContinue() alternatively.
   ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() tells how many bytes to provide as 'srcSize' to ZSTD_decompressContinue().
   ZSTD_decompressContinue() requires this _exact_ amount of bytes, or it will fail.
 
   result of ZSTD_decompressContinue() is the number of bytes regenerated within 'dst' (necessarily <= dstCapacity).
   It can be zero : it just means ZSTD_decompressContinue() has decoded some metadata item.
   It can also be an error code, which can be tested with ZSTD_isError().
 
   A frame is fully decoded when ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() returns zero.
   Context can then be reset to start a new decompression.
 
   Note : it's possible to know if next input to present is a header or a block, using ZSTD_nextInputType().
   This information is not required to properly decode a frame.
 
   == Special case : skippable frames ==
 
   Skippable frames allow integration of user-defined data into a flow of concatenated frames.
   Skippable frames will be ignored (skipped) by decompressor.
   The format of skippable frames is as follows :
   a) Skippable frame ID - 4 Bytes, Little endian format, any value from 0x184D2A50 to 0x184D2A5F
   b) Frame Size - 4 Bytes, Little endian format, unsigned 32-bits
   c) Frame Content - any content (User Data) of length equal to Frame Size
   For skippable frames ZSTD_getFrameHeader() returns zfhPtr->frameType==ZSTD_skippableFrame.
   For skippable frames ZSTD_decompressContinue() always returns 0 : it only skips the content.

     This API is deprecated in favor of the regular compression API.
     You can get the frame header down to 2 bytes by setting:

       - ZSTD_c_contentSizeFlag = 0

     We will be removing it in a future version. If the normal API doesn't provide
     the functionality you need, please open a GitHub issue.
 
     Block functions produce and decode raw zstd blocks, without frame metadata.
     Frame metadata cost is typically ~12 bytes, which can be non-negligible for very small blocks (< 100 bytes).
     But users will have to take in charge needed metadata to regenerate data, such as compressed and content sizes.
 
     A few rules to respect :
     - Compressing and decompressing require a context structure
       + Use ZSTD_createCCtx() and ZSTD_createDCtx()
     - It is necessary to init context before starting
       + compression : any ZSTD_compressBegin*() variant, including with dictionary
       + decompression : any ZSTD_decompressBegin*() variant, including with dictionary
     - Block size is limited, it must be <= ZSTD_getBlockSize() <= ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_MAX == 128 KB
       + If input is larger than a block size, it's necessary to split input data into multiple blocks
       + For inputs larger than a single block, consider using regular ZSTD_compress() instead.
         Frame metadata is not that costly, and quickly becomes negligible as source size grows larger than a block.
     - When a block is considered not compressible enough, ZSTD_compressBlock() result will be 0 (zero) !
       ===> In which case, nothing is produced into `dst` !
       + User __must__ test for such outcome and deal directly with uncompressed data
       + A block cannot be declared incompressible if ZSTD_compressBlock() return value was != 0.
         Doing so would mess up with statistics history, leading to potential data corruption.
       + ZSTD_decompressBlock() _doesn't accept uncompressed data as input_ !!
       + In case of multiple successive blocks, should some of them be uncompressed,
         decoder must be informed of their existence in order to follow proper history.
         Use ZSTD_insertBlock() for such a case.
