/**
* \file lzma/vli.h
* \brief Variable-length integer handling
*
* In the .xz format, most integers are encoded in a variable-length
* representation, which is sometimes called little endian base-128 encoding.
* This saves space when smaller values are more likely than bigger values.
*
* The encoding scheme encodes seven bits to every byte, using minimum
* number of bytes required to represent the given value. Encodings that use
* non-minimum number of bytes are invalid, thus every integer has exactly
* one encoded representation. The maximum number of bits in a VLI is 63,
* thus the vli argument must be less than or equal to UINT64_MAX / 2. You
* should use LZMA_VLI_MAX for clarity.

/**
* \brief Encode a variable-length integer
*
* This function has two modes: single-call and multi-call. Single-call mode
* encodes the whole integer at once; it is an error if the output buffer is
* too small. Multi-call mode saves the position in *vli_pos, and thus it is
* possible to continue encoding if the buffer becomes full before the whole
* integer has been encoded.
*
* \param vli Integer to be encoded
* \param vli_pos How many VLI-encoded bytes have already been written
* out. When starting to encode a new integer, *vli_pos
* must be set to zero. To use single-call encoding,
* set vli_pos to NULL.
* \param out Beginning of the output buffer
* \param out_pos The next byte will be written to out[*out_pos].
* \param out_size Size of the out buffer; the first byte into
* which no data is written to is out[out_size].
*
* \return Slightly different return values are used in multi-call and
* single-call modes.
*
* Single-call (vli_pos == NULL):
* - LZMA_OK: Integer successfully encoded.
* - LZMA_PROG_ERROR: Arguments are not sane. This can be due
* to too little output space; single-call mode doesn't use
* LZMA_BUF_ERROR, since the application should have checked
* the encoded size with lzma_vli_size().
*
* Multi-call (vli_pos != NULL):
* - LZMA_OK: So far all OK, but the integer is not
* completely written out yet.
* - LZMA_STREAM_END: Integer successfully encoded.
* - LZMA_BUF_ERROR: No output space was provided.
* - LZMA_PROG_ERROR: Arguments are not sane.
