* FSST: Fast Static Symbol Table compression
* see the paper https://github.com/cwida/fsst/raw/master/fsstcompression.pdf
*
* FSST is a compression scheme focused on string/text data: it can compress strings from distributions with many different values (i.e.
* where dictionary compression will not work well). It allows *random-access* to compressed data: it is not block-based, so individual
* strings can be decompressed without touching the surrounding data in a compressed block. When compared to e.g. lz4 (which is
* block-based), FSST achieves similar decompression speed, (2x) better compression speed and 30% better compression ratio on text.
*
* FSST encodes strings also using a symbol table -- but it works on pieces of the string, as it maps "symbols" (1-8 byte sequences)
* onto "codes" (single-bytes). FSST can also represent a byte as an exception (255 followed by the original byte). Hence, compression
* transforms a sequence of bytes into a (supposedly shorter) sequence of codes or escaped bytes. These shorter byte-sequences could
* be seen as strings again and fit in whatever your program is that manipulates strings.
*
* useful property: FSST ensures that strings that are equal, are also equal in their compressed form.
*
* In this API, strings are considered byte-arrays (byte = unsigned char) and a batch of strings is represented as an array of
* unsigned char* pointers to their starts. A seperate length array (of unsigned int) denotes how many bytes each string consists of.
*
* This representation as unsigned char* pointers tries to assume as little as possible on the memory management of the program
* that calls this API, and is also intended to allow passing strings into this API without copying (even if you use C++ strings).
*
* We optionally support C-style zero-terminated strings (zero appearing only at the end). In this case, the compressed strings are
* also zero-terminated strings. In zero-terminated mode, the zero-byte at the end *is* counted in the string byte-length.
