libdeflater is a Rust wrapper around
[libdeflate](https://github.com/ebiggers/libdeflate) - an alternative
heavily optimised library for deflate/zlib/gzip compression and
decompression that is intended for situations where upper bounds of the
output are well-known.
In my benchmarks on test files in the repo it has shown to be usually
both slightly faster and providing better compressed output than
cloudflare-zlib, but in some cases showing the opposite, so rather
than swapping defaults, it's currently provided as another option,
similarly to zopfli.
Since it's not strictly better in all cases, I'm not providing median
numbers, but you can check distribution histograms for time and size
differences here (all using `oxipng -o 6 -t 6 -P`):

* Fix verbose message
* No cloning when restoring original data
* Make reductions return a new uncompressed image
Partially fixes#145
* Async reduction evaluator
* Assert
* Faster bit depth check
* Also try 4-bit depth for small-depth images
* Skip test when using miniz
* Ensure palette is trimmed after depth reduction
Fixes#159
* Fudge factor for reductions to prefer better reductions even if gzip estimation says otherwise
This reverts commit 2702145f3f.
cfzlib seems to have a MASSIVE memory leak in it. Trying to use it
when processing many files at once will cause your system to run out
of memory.
Closes#125
