Zstandard bindings for Haskell

This library provides Haskell bindings to the Zstandard compression library.

The library is structured to provide several layers of abstraction.

• For the simplest use cases, the top-level Zstd module is the best place to get started.

• If you need to stream a large amount of data with a constant memory footprint, use the Zstd.Streaming module. This can also be used as a building block for adapting to streaming libraries such as pipes and conduit. (If you need to use lazy bytestrings instead, see the Zstd.Lazy module. This is built using the abstractions from the Zstd.Streaming module.)

• When your usage is dominated by lots of small messages (presumably using pre-computed compression dictionaries), use the Zstd.Efficient module to amortize the cost of allocating and initializing context and dictionary values.
