84LZ4_compress_default() :
85    Compresses 'sourceSize' bytes from buffer 'source'
86    into already allocated 'dest' buffer of size 'maxDestSize'.
87    Compression is guaranteed to succeed if 'maxDestSize' >= LZ4_compressBound(sourceSize).
88    It also runs faster, so it's a recommended setting.
89    If the function cannot compress 'source' into a more limited 'dest' budget,
90    compression stops *immediately*, and the function result is zero.
91    As a consequence, 'dest' content is not valid.
92    This function never writes outside 'dest' buffer, nor read outside 'source' buffer.
93        sourceSize  : Max supported value is LZ4_MAX_INPUT_VALUE
94        maxDestSize : full or partial size of buffer 'dest' (which must be already allocated)

96              or 0 if compression fails
97
98LZ4_decompress_safe() :
99    compressedSize : is the precise full size of the compressed block.
100    maxDecompressedSize : is the size of destination buffer, which must be already allocated.
101    return : the number of bytes decompressed into destination buffer (necessarily <= maxDecompressedSize)
102             If destination buffer is not large enough, decoding will stop and output an error code (<0).
103             If the source stream is detected malformed, the function will stop decoding and return a negative result.
104             This function is protected against buffer overflow exploits, including malicious data packets.
105             It never writes outside output buffer, nor reads outside input buffer.
