fastLZ - github maintained repo

[Selso Liberado]

Hello !

I wanted to recommend fastLZ to an "Awesome C" github repo, as a good compressor for embbeded/realtime solution.

The maintainer is a bitsuspicious as the original repo is "archived", 2 merge requests are pending since 2015.

if the author does not mean to maintain the repo in the future, is there any "living" repo he could suggest ?

Many thanks.

Hi Selso,

The current implementation of FastLZ is considered "stable", hence why it doesn't see/need much improvements.

For a good measure, I've updated the README to mention a couple of things:

* where it is being used: from games (as Death Stranding) to various open-source projects (Godot Engine, Facebook HHVM, Apache Traffic Server, Calligra Office, OSv, Netty, etc).

* the CI system verifies the build and runs the tests on 23 different combinations of architectures (amd64,i686, arm64, armhf, mips), operating systems (Linux, macOS, Windows), compilers (Clang, GCC, VS2017/2019, Tiny CC).

* available language bindings to work with it from Rust, Lua, Python, Ruby, etc

If there are more concerns, please let me know. Thank you very much!
