#define ZSTD_DUBT_UNSORTED_MARK 1 /* note : index 1 will now be confused with "unsorted" if sorted as larger than its predecessor.
It's not a big deal though : the candidate will just be considered unsorted, and be sorted again.
Additionnally, candidate position 1 will be lost.
But candidate 1 cannot hide a large tree of candidates, so it's a moderate loss.
The benefit is that ZSTD_DUBT_UNSORTED_MARK cannot be misdhandled by a table re-use using a different strategy */

/*! ZSTD_preserveUnsortedMark() :
* pre-emptively increase value of ZSTD_DUBT_UNSORTED_MARK before ZSTD_reduceTable()
* so that combined operation preserves its value.
* Without it, ZSTD_DUBT_UNSORTED_MARK==1 would be squashed to 0.
* As a consequence, the list of unsorted elements would stop on the first element,
* removing candidates, resulting in a negligible loss to compression ratio
* As a consequence, the list of unsorted elements would stop at first element,
* removing candidates, resulting in a very small loss to compression ratio
* (since overflow protection with ZSTD_reduceTable() is relatively rare).
*
* Another potential risk is that a position will be promoted from *unsorted*
* to *sorted=>smaller:0*, meaning the next candidate will be considered smaller.
* to *sorted=>smaller:0*, meaning next candidate will be considered smaller.
* This could be wrong, and result in data corruption.
*
* On second thought, this corruption might be impossible,
* because unsorted elements are always at the beginning of the list,
* and squashing to zero reduce the list to a single element,
* because unsorted elements stand at the beginning of the list,
* and squashing to zero reduces the list to a single element,
* which needs to be sorted anyway.
* I haven't spent much thoughts into this possible scenario,
* and just felt it was safer to implement ZSTD_preserveUnsortedMark() */
