Encoder implementation using input/output classes. Add a BrotliCompress() method to the public encoder API that uses the BrotliIn and BrotliOut classes and use that in the 'bro' command-line tool. Use the streaming api in BrotliCompressBuffer() and BrotliCompressor::WriteMetaBlock(). Use the appropiate hashers for quality <= 9.
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.
The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in the following internet draft: http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-alakuijala-brotli
