SECURITY

• python: added Decompressor::can_accept_more_data method and optional output_buffer_limit argument Decompressor::process; that allows mitigation of unexpectedly large output; reported by Charles Chan (https://github.com/charleswhchan)

Added

• decoder / encoder: added static initialization to reduce binary size
• python: allow limiting decoder output (see SECURITY section)
• CLI: brcat alias; allow decoding concatenated brotli streams
• kt: pure Kotlin decoder
• cgo: support "raw" dictionaries
• build: Bazel modules

Removed

• java: dropped finalize() for native entities

Fixed

• java: in compress pass correct length to native encoder

Improved

• build: install man pages
• build: updated / fixed / refined Bazel buildfiles
• encoder: faster encoding
• cgo: link via pkg-config
• python: modernize extension / allow multi-phase module initialization

Changed

• decoder / encoder: static tables use "small" model (allows 2GiB+ binaries)
