/*
 * This file provides lzx_compress(), a function to compress an in-memory buffer
 * of data using LZX compression, as used in the WIM file format.
 *
 * Please see the comments in lzx-decompress.c for more information about this
 * compression format.
 *
 * One thing to keep in mind is that there is no sliding window, since the
 * window is always the entirety of a WIM chunk, which is at most WIM_CHUNK_SIZE
 * ( = 32768) bytes.
 *
 * The basic compression algorithm used here should be familiar if you are
 * familiar with Huffman trees and with other LZ77 and Huffman-based formats
 * such as DEFLATE.  Otherwise it can be quite tricky to understand.  Basically
 * it is the following:
 *
 * - Preprocess the input data (LZX-specific)
 * - Go through the input data and determine matches.  This part is based on
 *       code from zlib, and a hash table of 3-character strings is used to
 *       accelerate the process of finding matches.
 * - Build the Huffman trees based on the frequencies of symbols determined
 *       while recording matches.
 * - Output the block header, including the Huffman trees; then output the
 *       compressed stream of matches and literal characters.
 *
 * It is possible for a WIM chunk to include multiple LZX blocks, since for some
 * input data this will produce a better compression ratio (especially since
 * each block can include new Huffman codes).  However, producing multiple LZX
 * blocks from one input chunk is not yet implemented.
