Cached compression/decompression with QuickLz

Allows you to compress and decompress with QuickLz while keeping low the GC pressure

Main features:

• Fast compression/decompression using QuickLz algorithm
• Includes an array pool to request/recycle arrays in case you want to return them once you've compressed/decompressed their data

Usage:

Compress:

varlength=5000;vardata=newbyte[length]//Fill up the "data" array...
CachedQlz.Compress(refdata,reflength);//Now "data" is an array with the compressed bytes. If you want to check it's length use the variable "length"//Do NOT use data.Length! It might be bigger as it came from a cached array!

Decompress:

//"data" is an array with compressed bytes...CachedQlz.Decompress(refdata,outvardecompressedLength);//Now "data" is an array with the decompressed bytes. If you want to check it's length use the variable "length"//Do NOT use data.Length! It might be bigger as it came from a cached array!

Array pool usage:

Request an array from the pool:

vararray=ArrayPool<byte>.Spawn(4);//Caution, array.Length will 8 instead of 4 as the cache system uses values based on powers of two

Return an array to the pool:

ArrayPool<byte>.Recycle(array);
