 * Dictionary-based lookups contributed by Bernd Boeckmann, 2023

 *

 * usage: tlumacz en fr pl etc

 *

 * computes:

 * OUT.LNG -> contains all language resources.

 * OUTC.LNG -> same as OUT.LNG but with compressed strings (slower to load).

 *

 * === COMPRESSION ===========================================================

 * The compression scheme is very simple. It is applied only to strings (ie.

 * not the dictionnary) and it is basically a stream of 16-bit words (tokens).

 *

 * Token format is LLLL OOOO OOOO OOOO, where:

 * OOOO OOOO OOOO is the back reference offset (number of bytes-1 to rewind)

 * LLLL is the number of bytes (-1) that have to be copied from the offset.

 *

 * However, if LLLL is zero then the token's format is different:

 * 0000 RRRR BBBB BBBB

 *

 * The above form occurs when uncompressible data is encountered:

 * BBBB BBBB is the literal value of a byte to be copied

 * RRRR is the number of RAW (uncompressible) WORDS that follow (possibly 0)

 *

 * where each WORD value contains the following bits "LLLL OOOO OOOO OOOO":

 *

 * OOOO OOOO OOOO = a backreference offset ("look that many bytes back")

 * LLLL = the number of bytes to copy from the backreference

 *

 * To recognize a compressed lang block one has to look at the id of the block

 * (16-bit language id). If its highest bit is set (0x8000) then the lang block

 * is compressed.
