//! RFC 8879 — TLS Certificate Compression (TLS 1.3).
//!
//! Wire surface:
//!
//! - **`compress_certificate` extension** (IANA code point 27, `0x001b`):
//!   appears in the `ClientHello` (covering the server's `Certificate`) or
//!   in the server's `CertificateRequest` (covering the client's mTLS
//!   `Certificate`). Body: a `u8`-length list of `u16` algorithm IDs the
//!   sender can DECOMPRESS, in preference order. Unidirectional — the
//!   peer either picks one or does nothing, with no response extension.
//! - **`CompressedCertificate` handshake message** (type 25): replaces a
//!   regular `Certificate` on the wire when the sender chose to compress.
//!   Body: `algorithm u16 ‖ uncompressed_length u24 ‖
//!   compressed_certificate_message<u24>`. The decompressed bytes are
//!   processed exactly as a `Certificate` message body would be; the
//!   transcript hash is fed the COMPRESSED wire bytes (matching how
//!   BoringSSL / rustls drive it — RFC 8879 leaves the choice unstated
//!   but only this interpretation is reproducible by both peers).
//!
//! Algorithm IDs (`CertificateCompressionAlgorithm` registry, RFC 8879 §7):
//!
//! | id | name   | container |
//! |----|--------|-----------|
//! |  1 | zlib   | RFC 1950 zlib over RFC 1951 DEFLATE |
//! |  2 | brotli | RFC 7932                            |
//! |  3 | zstd   | RFC 8478                            |
//!
//! Only **zlib (1)** is implemented here; brotli/zstd remain unwired. The
//! zlib codec is the `compcol` crate, the sole vendored dependency of this
//! crate ([[compcol-allowed-for-deflate]] memory documents the carve-out).
//!
//! Size policy (RFC 8879 §5):
//!
//! > Implementations SHOULD bound the memory usage when decompressing and
//! > MUST limit the size of the resulting decompressed chain to the
//! > specified uncompressed length.
//!
//! We enforce both: a hard module-level cap [`MAX_UNCOMPRESSED_BYTES`] on
//! the `uncompressed_length` field itself (so a malicious header cannot
//! coerce a huge allocation up front), and a streaming-decode budget equal
//! to that declared length (so the actual decompression cannot exceed it
//! mid-stream). After decoding, the produced byte count is checked for an
//! exact match — RFC 8879 §4 ("if the result is not the same as the
//! declared uncompressed_length, abort with `bad_certificate`").
