/**
 * \brief       MicroLZMA encoder
 *
 * The MicroLZMA format is a raw LZMA stream whose first byte (always 0x00)
 * has been replaced with bitwise-negation of the LZMA properties (lc/lp/pb).
 * This encoding ensures that the first byte of MicroLZMA stream is never
 * 0x00. There is no end of payload marker and thus the uncompressed size
 * must be stored separately. For the best error detection the dictionary
 * size should be stored separately as well but alternatively one may use
 * the uncompressed size as the dictionary size when decoding.
 *
 * With the MicroLZMA encoder, lzma_code() behaves slightly unusually.
 * The action argument must be LZMA_FINISH and the return value will never be
 * LZMA_OK. Thus the encoding is always done with a single lzma_code() after
 * the initialization. The benefit of the combination of initialization
 * function and lzma_code() is that memory allocations can be re-used for
 * better performance.
 *
 * lzma_code() will try to encode as much input as is possible to fit into
 * the given output buffer. If not all input can be encoded, the stream will
 * be finished without encoding all the input. The caller must check both
 * input and output buffer usage after lzma_code() (total_in and total_out
 * in lzma_stream can be convenient). Often lzma_code() can fill the output
 * buffer completely if there is a lot of input, but sometimes a few bytes
 * may remain unused because the next LZMA symbol would require more space.
 *
 * lzma_stream.avail_out must be at least 6. Otherwise LZMA_PROG_ERROR
 * will be returned.
 *
 * The LZMA dictionary should be reasonably low to speed up the encoder
 * re-initialization. A good value is bigger than the resulting
 * uncompressed size of most of the output chunks. For example, if output
 * size is 4 KiB, dictionary size of 32 KiB or 64 KiB is good. If the
 * data compresses extremely well, even 128 KiB may be useful.
 *
 * The MicroLZMA format and this encoder variant were made with the EROFS
 * file system in mind. This format may be convenient in other embedded
 * uses too where many small streams are needed. XZ Embedded includes a
 * decoder for this format.
 *
 * \return      - LZMA_STREAM_END: All good. Check the amounts of input used
 *                and output produced. Store the amount of input used
 *                (uncompressed size) as it needs to be known to decompress
 *                the data.

 *              - LZMA_MEM_ERROR

 *                output space (6 bytes) to create a valid MicroLZMA stream.

 * may be produced by different runs, and even the error code might vary.
 *
 * When using LZMA_FAIL_FAST, it is recommended to use LZMA_FINISH to tell
 * the decoder when no more input will be coming because it can help fast
 * detection and reporting of truncated files. Note that in this situation
 * truncated files might be diagnosed with LZMA_DATA_ERROR instead of
 * LZMA_OK or LZMA_BUF_ERROR!
 *
 * Without this flag the threaded decoder will provide as much output as

 * matches the single-threaded decoder and provides repeatable behavior
 * with truncated or corrupt input. There are a few special cases where the

 *
 * This decoder supports the .lz format version 0 and the unextended .lz
 * format version 1:
 *
 *   - Files in the format version 0 were produced by lzip 1.3 and older.
 *     Such files aren't common but may be found from file archives
 *     as a few source packages were released in this format. People
 *     might have old personal files in this format too. Decompression
 *     support for the format version 0 was removed in lzip 1.18.
 *
 *   - lzip 1.3 added decompression support for .lz format version 1 files.
 *     Compression support was added in lzip 1.4. In lzip 1.6 the .lz format
 *     version 1 was extended to support the Sync Flush marker. This extension
 *     is not supported by liblzma. lzma_code() will return LZMA_DATA_ERROR
 *     at the location of the Sync Flush marker. In practice files with
 *     the Sync Flush marker are very rare and thus liblzma can decompress
 *     almost all .lz files.
 *
 * Just like with lzma_stream_decoder() for .xz files, LZMA_CONCATENATED
 * should be used when decompressing normal standalone .lz files.
 *
 * The .lz format allows putting non-.lz data at the end of a file after at
 * least one valid .lz member. That is, one can append custom data at the end
 * of a .lz file and the decoder is required to ignore it. In liblzma this
 * is relevant only when LZMA_CONCATENATED is used. In that case lzma_code()
 * will return LZMA_STREAM_END and leave lzma_stream.next_in pointing to
 * the first byte of the non-.lz data. An exception to this is if the first
 * 1-3 bytes of the non-.lz data are identical to the .lz magic bytes
 * (0x4C, 0x5A, 0x49, 0x50; "LZIP" in US-ASCII). In such a case the 1-3 bytes
 * will have been ignored by lzma_code(). If one wishes to locate the non-.lz
 * data reliably, one must ensure that the first byte isn't 0x4C. Actually
 * one should ensure that none of the first four bytes of trailing data are
 * equal to the magic bytes because lzip >= 1.20 requires it by default.

 *                          affect the memory usage if one specifies bigger
