Improve Huffman encoding speed by 20% for gcc and 10% for clang.
compressbenchmark measures total compression speed.compress_literalsbenchmark compresses the file at the given level. It then extracts the literals from the compressed frame. Then it measures the speed of literal compression on each block of extracted literals.I also added a new Huffman round trip fuzzer in the 2nd commit. It found two minor bugs in Huffman compression that cannot be triggered in zstd. I've run it for a few million iterations and it looks good so far.
