Minor formatting of Section 9.2. and Section 9.3.
Many of the fields are copy-pastes of each other, but differ slightly
in placement of words, capitalization, or other random
oddities. This commit makes it so that if you simply do a search
replace on these following passages, you get the same thing:
s/NBLTYPESX/(NBLTYPESI|NBLTYPESL|NBLTYPESD)/g
s/CATEGORY/(insert-and-copy|literal|distance)/g
>>>
1-11 bits: NBLTYPESX, # of CATEGORY block types, encoded
with the same variable length code as above
Prefix code over the block type code alphabet for
CATEGORY block types, appears only if NBLTYPESX >= 2
Prefix code over the block count code alphabet for
CATEGORY block counts, appears only if NBLTYPESX >= 2
Block count code + Extra bits for first CATEGORY
block count, appears only if NBLTYPESX >= 2
<<<
>>>
Block type code for next CATEGORY block type, appears
only if NBLTYPESX >= 2 and the previous CATEGORY
block count is zero
Block count code + extra bits for next CATEGORY
block count, appears only if NBLTYPESX >= 2 and the
previous CATEGORY block count is zero

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed with deflate but offers more dense compression.
The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in the following internet draft: http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-alakuijala-brotli
