Add validation to best_ratio() and encode_raw() #28

Closed saxbophone closed 6 years ago

saxbophone commented 6 years ago

This validation protects against:

improper usage of best_ratio() with wrong argument types
improper usage of encode_raw() (and indirectly of encode()) with base configurations which would corrupt data on encoding.

Note: no need to protect decode_raw() in the equivalent way as this function cannot corrupt data (data is only corrupted on encoding when bad options are chosen).

Closes #22
