//! Automatic codec selection and compression.
//!
//! Don't want to think about which codec to use? [`CodecSelector`] analyzes
//! your data and picks the best one. Or use [`TypeSpecificCompressor`] to
//! compress and decompress with a single call.
//!
//! | Codec | Best for | Typical savings |
//! | ----- | -------- | --------------- |
//! | None | Small data, random access | 1x (no compression) |
//! | Delta | Sorted integers | 2-10x |
//! | DeltaBitPacked | Sequential IDs, timestamps | 5-20x |
//! | BitPacked | Small integers (ages, counts) | 2-16x |
//! | Dictionary | Repeated strings (labels) | 2-50x |
//! | BitVector | Booleans | 8x |
//! | RunLength | Highly repetitive data | 2-100x |
