Updates to Brotli compression format, decoder and encoder

This commit contains a batch of changes that were made to the Brotli
compression algorithm in the last three weeks. Most important changes:

  * Added UTF8 context model for good text compression.
  * Simplified context modeling by having only 4 context modes.
  * Per-block context mode selection.
  * Faster backward copying and bit reading functions.
  * More efficient histogram coding.
  * Streaming support for the decoder and encoder.
