 * of out_len bytes.
 *
 * If the output buffer is not large enough or any error occurs
 * return 0, otherwise return the number of bytes used (which might
 * be considerably larger than in_len, so it makes sense to always
 * use out_len == in_len - 1), to ensure _some_ compression, and store
 * the data uncompressed otherwise.
 *
 * lzf_compress might use different algorithms on different systems and
 * even diferent runs, thus might result in different compressed strings
 * depending on the phase of the moon or similar factors. However, all
 * these strings are architecture-independent and will result in the
 * original data when decompressed using lzf_decompress.
 *
 * The buffers must not be overlapping.
 *
 * If the option LZF_STATE_ARG is enabled, an extra argument must be
 * supplied which is not reflected in this header file. Refer to lzfP.h
 * and lzf_c.c.
