Compression Support #5

Allow compressing data and allow decompression such that it streams while reading (for best performance). Might be best to have multiple methods for size/speed variety. For example, a better compression method that has better size but requires the entire buffer to be compressed and decompressed in memory, whereas a compression method that can decompress while streaming and also have a decent size also exists.

This needs #4 in order to work.

This is out of scope of this project. Streaming during reading will not be handled, plus just use a separate lib for general purpose compression anyways. This is a simple library, do not make it complicated.

Re-opening this since it is a more practical API even if it involves substantial modification to bufzilla.
