Add support for the new ZFP lossy codec in C-Blosc2 #526

Closed FrancescAlted closed 2 years ago

FrancescAlted commented 2 years ago

C-Blosc2 recently gained support for the ZFP codec. There are actually 3 different working modes for ZFP, and each one is assigned to a new ID, as described in:

https://github.com/Blosc/c-blosc2/blob/main/plugins/codecs/zfp/README.md#plugin-usage

ironArray should be able to use them. Remember that meta handling is important so as to tell the codec the degree of lossyness desired (similar to fp_trunc_mantissa).
