The type for input sources. With a `Manual source the client must provide input with src. With `String or `Channel source the client can safely discard `Await case (with assert false).

The type for states.

literals s is frequencies of lengths and literals emitted by s since it was created.

distances s is frequencies of distances emitted by s since it was created.

checksum s is ADLER-32 checksum of consumed inputs.

src s i j l provides s with l bytes to read, starting at j in i. This byte range is read by calls to compress with s until `Await is returned. To signal the end of input call the function with l = 0.

• raises Invalid_argument

  when j and l do not correspond to a valid range.

src_rem s is how many bytes it remains in given input buffer.

compress s is:

• `Await if s has a `Manual input source and awits for more input. The client must use src to provide it.
• `Flush if s filled completely the shared-queue q (given in state). Queue.junk_exn or Queue.pop_exn can be used to give some free cells to compress.
• `End if s compressed all input. Given shared-queue q is possibly not empty.

state src ~w ~q is an state that inputs from src and that outputs to q.

Window.

The client can constrain lookup operation by a window. Small window enforces compress to emit small distances. However, large window allows compress to go furthermore to recognize a pattern which can be expensive.
