Update build system. Now libraries are produced as build artifacts. There are currently 3 ways to build: * Easy: `./configure; make` * Simple: use Bazel * Portable: use premake5 to generate XCode / MSVS projects
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
