LZ4 Bindings for Python

The lz4 library provides Python bindings for the high-performance LZ4 compression algorithm by Yann Collet. It supports both the frame and block formats, with the frame format being recommended for most applications due to its interoperability. The library is actively maintained with frequent releases, currently at version 4.4.5, and offers a Pythonic API that can serve as a drop-in alternative to standard library compression modules like `zlib` or `gzip`.
