By setting special encoder/decoder flag it is now possible to extend
LZ-window up to 30 bits; though produced stream will not be RFC7932
compliant.

Added new dictionary generator - "DSH". It combines speed of "Sieve"
and quality of "DM". Plus utilities to prepare train corpora
(remove unique strings).

Improved compression ratio: now two sub-blocks could be stitched:
the last copy command could be extended to span the next sub-block.

Fixed compression ineffectiveness caused by floating numbers rounding and
wrong cost heuristic.

Other C changes:

  • combined / moved context.h to common
  • moved transforms to common
  • unified some aspects of code formatting
  • added an abstraction for encoder (static) dictionary
  • moved default allocator/deallocator functions to common

brotli CLI:

  • window size is auto-adjusted if not specified explicitly

Java:

  • added "eager" decoding both to JNI wrapper and pure decoder
  • huge speed-up of DictionaryData initialization

Many thanks and kudos to Martin Raszyk who implemented "Large Window Brotli" and other improvements to brotli!

* Add dictionaryless compressed dictionary

* Fix `sources.lst`

* Fix `sources.lst` and add a note that `libtool` is also required.

* Update setup.py

* Fix `EagerStreamTest`

* Fix BUILD file

* Add missing `libdivsufsort` dependency

* Fix "unused parameter" warning.
