Deprecate greedy_block_split and enable_context_modeling brotli params. These affected only quality 11, and now it does not make sense to disable block splitting or context modeling because most of the time is spent in zopfli anyway. Now all speed vs size compromises are controlled by the quality param.
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
