/*! Block functions produce and decode raw zstd blocks, without frame metadata.
Frame metadata cost is typically ~18 bytes, which is non-negligible on very small blocks.
User will have to take in charge required information to regenerate data, such as compressed and content sizes.
A few rules to respect :
- Uncompressed block size must be <= ZSTD_BLOCKSIZE_MAX (128 KB)
+ If you need to compress more, it's recommended to use ZSTD_compress() instead, since frame metadata costs become negligible.
- Compressing or decompressing requires a context structure
+ If you need to compress more, cut data into multiple blocks
+ Consider using the regular ZSTD_compress() instead, as frame metadata costs become negligible when source size is large.
- Compressing and decompressing require a context structure
+ Use ZSTD_createCCtx() and ZSTD_createDCtx()
- It is necessary to init context before starting
+ compression : ZSTD_compressBegin()

Use ZSTD_insertBlock() in such a case.
