Align deflateParams() and its documentation in zlib.h.
This updates the documentation to reflect the behavior of deflateParams() when it is not able to compress all of the input data provided so far due to insufficient output space. It also assures that data provided is compressed before the parameter changes, even if at the beginning of the stream.

/*
|

Dynamically update the compression level and compression strategy. The
|
||||
interpretation of level and strategy is as in deflateInit2. This can be
|
||||
interpretation of level and strategy is as in deflateInit2(). This can be
|
||||
used to switch between compression and straight copy of the input data, or
|
||||
to switch to a different kind of input data requiring a different strategy.
|
||||
If the compression level is changed, the input available so far is
|
||||
compressed with the old level (and may be flushed); the new level will take
|
||||
effect only at the next call of deflate().
|
||||
If the compression approach (which is a function of the level) or the
|
||||
strategy is changed, then the input available so far is compressed with the
|
||||
old level and strategy using deflate(strm, Z_BLOCK). There are three
|
||||
approaches for the compression levels 0, 1..3, and 4..9 respectively. The
|
||||
new level and strategy will take effect at the next call of deflate().
|
||||
|
||||
Before the call of deflateParams, the stream state must be set as for
|
||||
a call of deflate(), since the currently available input may have to be
|
||||
compressed and flushed. In particular, strm->avail_out must be non-zero.
|
||||
If a deflate(strm, Z_BLOCK) is performed by deflateParams(), and it does
|
||||
not have enough output space to complete, then the parameter change will
|
||||
take effect at an undetermined location in the uncompressed data provided so
|
||||
far. In order to assure a change in the parameters at a specific location
|
||||
in the uncompressed data, the deflate stream should first be flushed with
|
||||
Z_BLOCK or another flush parameter, and deflate() called until
|
||||
strm.avail_out is not zero, before the call of deflateParams(). Then no
|
||||
more input data should be provided before the deflateParams() call. If this
|
||||
is done, the old level and strategy will be applied to the data compressed
|
||||
before deflateParams(), and the new level and strategy will be applied to
|
||||
the the data compressed after deflateParams().
|
||||
|
||||
deflateParams returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source
|
||||
stream state was inconsistent or if a parameter was invalid, Z_BUF_ERROR if
|
||||
strm->avail_out was zero.
|
||||
deflateParams returns Z_OK if success, Z_STREAM_ERROR if the source stream
|
||||
state was inconsistent or if a parameter was invalid, or Z_BUF_ERROR if
|
||||
there was not enough output space to complete the compression before the
|
||||
parameters were changed. Note that in the case of a Z_BUF_ERROR, the
|
||||
parameters are changed nevertheless, and will take effect at an undetermined
|
||||
location in the previously supplied uncompressed data. Compression may
|
||||
proceed after a Z_BUF_ERROR.
