This is a build-maintenance release. Major changes:
added Autotools build files
switched shared library version to libtool scheme
In this release semantic suffix and libtool suffix are the same: 1.0.2.
Don't expect them to match in future releases.
Minor changes:
BrotliDictionary members are not const now
ZopfliNode distance could be up to 128MiB
fixed API documentation typos
total_out is always set by decoder
fixed BROTLI_ENSURE_CAPACITY macro; no-op in preprocessed output
Other changes:
fixed scripts for oss-fuzz, test them with Travis
made Bazel JNI tests less messy
fixed linter warnings in JS decoder
fixed permissions of various files
added Bazel build to Appveyor matrix
added Sieve dictionary generator
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.
