zlib compression #7

Closed LincolnBryant closed 1 year ago

LincolnBryant commented 1 year ago

PR adds zlib compression support.

A new configuration option is added to enet_host, compression_mode. e.g.:

    Options = [
        {peer_limit, ?PEER_LIMIT},
        {channel_limit, ?CHANNEL_LIMIT},
        {compression_mode, zlib}
    ],
    Handler = {my_enet_handler_module, start, []},
    enet:start_host(?ENET_PORT, Handler, Options),

This assumes that the host will use the same compression to send and receive packets. If there's a demonstrable use case we could later change it to have compress_fun and decompress_fun and have the consumer of the library supply the (de)compression functions.
