/*
 * This file contains a compressor for the LZX ("Lempel-Ziv eXtended")
 * compression format, as used in the WIM (Windows IMaging) file format.
 *
 * Two different parsing algorithms are implemented: "near-optimal" and "lazy".
 * "Near-optimal" is significantly slower than "lazy", but results in a better
 * compression ratio.  The "near-optimal" algorithm is used at the default
 * compression level.
 *
 * This file may need some slight modifications to be used outside of the WIM
 * format.  In particular, in other situations the LZX block header might be
 * slightly different, and sliding window support might be required.
 *
 * Note: LZX is a compression format derived from DEFLATE, the format used by
 * zlib and gzip.  Both LZX and DEFLATE use LZ77 matching and Huffman coding.
 * Certain details are quite similar, such as the method for storing Huffman
 * codes.  However, the main differences are:
 *
 * - LZX preprocesses the data to attempt to make x86 machine code slightly more
 *   compressible before attempting to compress it further.
 *
 * - LZX uses a "main" alphabet which combines literals and matches, with the
 *   match symbols containing a "length header" (giving all or part of the match
 *   length) and an "offset slot" (giving, roughly speaking, the order of
 *   magnitude of the match offset).
 *
 * - LZX does not have static Huffman blocks (that is, the kind with preset
 *   Huffman codes); however it does have two types of dynamic Huffman blocks
 *   ("verbatim" and "aligned").
 *
 * - LZX has a minimum match length of 2 rather than 3.  Length 2 matches can be
 *   useful, but generally only if the parser is smart about choosing them.
 *
 * - In LZX, offset slots 0 through 2 actually represent entries in an LRU queue
 *   of match offsets.  This is very useful for certain types of files, such as
 *   binary files that have repeating records.

 * block.  Specifically:
 *
 *  - The greedy parser may choose an arbitrarily long match starting at the
 *    SOFT_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE'th byte.
 *
 *  - The lazy parser may choose a sequence of literals starting at the
 *    SOFT_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE'th byte when it sees a sequence of increasing good
 *    matches.  The final match may be of arbitrary length.  The length of the

/*
 * Block splitting algorithm.  The problem is to decide when it is worthwhile to
 * start a new block with new entropy codes.  There is a theoretically optimal
 * solution: recursively consider every possible block split, considering the
 * exact cost of each block, and choose the minimum cost approach.  But this is
 * far too slow.  Instead, as an approximation, we can count symbols and after
 * every N symbols, compare the expected distribution of symbols based on the
 * previous data with the actual distribution.  If they differ "by enough", then
 * start a new block.
 *
 * As an optimization and heuristic, we don't distinguish between every symbol
 * but rather we combine many symbols into a single "observation type".  For
 * literals we only look at the high bits and low bits, and for matches we only
 * look at whether the match is long or not.  The assumption is that for typical
 * "real" data, places that are good block boundaries will tend to be noticable
 * based only on changes in these aggregate frequencies, without looking for
 * subtle differences in individual symbols.  For example, a change from ASCII
 * bytes to non-ASCII bytes, or from few matches (generally less compressible)
 * to many matches (generally more compressible), would be easily noticed based
 * on the aggregates.
 *
 * For determining whether the frequency distributions are "different enough" to
 * start a new block, the simply heuristic of splitting when the sum of absolute
 * differences exceeds a constant seems to be good enough.  We also add a number
 * proportional to the block size so that the algorithm is more likely to end
 * large blocks than small blocks.  This reflects the general expectation that
 * it will become increasingly beneficial to start a new block as the current
 * blocks grows larger.
 *
 * Finally, for an approximation, it is not strictly necessary that the exact
 * symbols being used are considered.  With "near-optimal parsing", for example,
 * the actual symbols that will be used are unknown until after the block
 * boundary is chosen and the block has been optimized.  Since the final choices
 * cannot be used, we can use preliminary "greedy" choices instead.

 * from 'c->optimum_nodes[0]' to 'c->optimum_nodes[block_size]'.
 *
 * The algorithm works forwards, starting at 'c->optimum_nodes[0]' and
 * proceeding forwards one node at a time.  At each node, a selection of matches
 * (len >= 2), as well as the literal byte (len = 1), is considered.  An item of
 * length 'len' provides a new path to reach the node 'len' bytes later.  If
 * such a path is the lowest cost found so far to reach that later node, then
 * that later node is updated with the new path.
 *
 * Note that although this algorithm is based on minimum cost path search, due
 * to various simplifying assumptions the result is not guaranteed to be the
 * true minimum cost, or "optimal", path over the graph of all valid LZX
 * representations of this block.
 *
 * Also, note that because of the presence of the recent offsets queue (which is
 * a type of adaptive state), the algorithm cannot work backwards and compute
 * "cost to end" instead of "cost to beginning".  Furthermore, the way the
 * algorithm handles this adaptive state in the "minimum cost" parse is actually
 * only an approximation.  It's possible for the globally optimal, minimum cost
 * path to contain a prefix, ending at a position, where that path prefix is
 * *not* the minimum cost path to that position.  This can happen if such a path
 * prefix results in a different adaptive state which results in lower costs
 * later.  The algorithm does not solve this problem; it only considers the
 * lowest cost to reach each individual position.

                 * that same offset.  In other words, we don't necessarily need
                 * to use the full length of a match.  The key heuristic that
                 * saves a significicant amount of time is that for each
                 * distinct length, we only consider the smallest offset for
                 * which that length is available.  This heuristic also applies
                 * to repeat offsets, which we order specially: R0 < R1 < R2 <
                 * any explicit offset.  Of course, this heuristic may be
                 * produce suboptimal results because offset slots in LZX are
                 * subject to entropy encoding, but in practice this is a useful
                 * heuristic.
