/*! ZSTD_estimate*() :
* These functions make it possible to estimate memory usage
* of a future {D,C}Ctx, before its creation.
* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize() will provide a budget large enough for any compression level up to selected one.
* It will also consider src size to be arbitrarily "large", which is worst case.
* If srcSize is known to always be small, ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize_usingCParams() can provide a tighter estimation.
* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize_usingCParams() can be used in tandem with ZSTD_getCParams() to create cParams from compressionLevel.
* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize_usingCCtxParams() can be used in tandem with ZSTD_CCtxParams_setParameter(). Only single-threaded compression is supported. This function will return an error code if ZSTD_c_nbWorkers is >= 1.
* Note : CCtx size estimation is only correct for single-threaded compression. */

* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize() will provide a budget large enough for any
* compression level up to selected one. Unlike ZSTD_estimateCStreamSize*(),
* this estimate does not include space for a window buffer, so this estimate
* is guaranteed to be enough for single-shot compressions, but not streaming
* compressions. It will however assume the input may be arbitrarily large,
* which is the worst case. If srcSize is known to always be small,
* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize_usingCParams() can provide a tighter estimation.
* ZSTD_estimateCCtxSize_usingCParams() can be used in tandem with
