A ZSTD_DCtx object can be re-used multiple times.
First typical operation is to retrieve frame parameters, using ZSTD_getFrameHeader().

- and the dictionary ID in use.
- (Note : content size is optional, it may not be present. 0 means : content size unknown).
- Note that these values could be wrong, either because of data malformation, or because an attacker is spoofing deliberate false information.
- As a consequence, check that values remain within valid application range, especially `windowSize`, before allocation.
- Each application can set its own limit, depending on local restrictions.
- For extended interoperability, it is recommended to support windowSize of at least 8 MB.
Frame header is extracted from the beginning of compressed frame, so providing only the frame's beginning is enough.

+ ZSTD_decompressContinue() needs previous data blocks during decompression, up to `windowSize` bytes.
+ ZSTD_decompressContinue() is very sensitive to contiguity,
+ if 2 blocks don't follow each other, make sure that either the compressor breaks contiguity at the same place,
+ or that previous contiguous segment is large enough to properly handle maximum back-reference distance.
+ There are multiple ways to guarantee this condition.
+
+ The most memory efficient way is to use a round buffer of sufficient size.
+ Sufficient size is determined by invoking ZSTD_decodingBufferSize_min(),
+ which can @return an error code if required value is too large for current system (in 32-bits mode).
+ In a round buffer methodology, ZSTD_decompressContinue() decompresses each block next to previous one,
+ up to the moment there is not enough room left in the buffer to guarantee decoding another full block,
+ which maximum size is provided in `ZSTD_frameHeader` structure, field `blockSizeMax`.
+ At which point, decoding can resume from the beginning of the buffer.
+ Note that already decoded data stored in the buffer should be flushed before being overwritten.
+
+ There are alternatives possible, for example using two or more buffers of size `windowSize` each, though they consume more memory.
+
+ Finally, if you control the compression process, you can also ignore all buffer size rules,
+ as long as the encoder and decoder progress in "lock-step",
+ aka use exactly the same buffer sizes, break contiguity at the same place, etc.
+
+ Once buffers are setup, start decompression, with ZSTD_decompressBegin().
If decompression requires a dictionary, use ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDict() or ZSTD_decompressBegin_usingDDict().
- Alternatively, you can copy a prepared context, using ZSTD_copyDCtx().
Then use ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() and ZSTD_decompressContinue() alternatively.
ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() tells how many bytes to provide as 'srcSize' to ZSTD_decompressContinue().
ZSTD_decompressContinue() requires this _exact_ amount of bytes, or it will fail.
- @result of ZSTD_decompressContinue() is the number of bytes regenerated within 'dst' (necessarily <= dstCapacity).
- It can be zero, which is not an error; it just means ZSTD_decompressContinue() has decoded some metadata item.

- ZSTD_decompressContinue() needs previous data blocks during decompression, up to `windowSize`.
- They should preferably be located contiguously, prior to current block.
- Alternatively, a round buffer of sufficient size is also possible. Sufficient size is determined by frame parameters.
- ZSTD_decompressContinue() is very sensitive to contiguity,
- if 2 blocks don't follow each other, make sure that either the compressor breaks contiguity at the same place,

-
A frame is fully decoded when ZSTD_nextSrcSizeToDecompress() returns zero.
Context can then be reset to start a new decompression.

Skippable frames allow integration of user-defined data into a flow of concatenated frames.
- Skippable frames will be ignored (skipped) by a decompressor. The format of skippable frames is as follows :
+ Skippable frames will be ignored (skipped) by decompressor.
+ The format of skippable frames is as follows :
a) Skippable frame ID - 4 Bytes, Little endian format, any value from 0x184D2A50 to 0x184D2A5F
b) Frame Size - 4 Bytes, Little endian format, unsigned 32-bits
c) Frame Content - any content (User Data) of length equal to Frame Size
- For skippable frames ZSTD_decompressContinue() always returns 0.
- For skippable frames ZSTD_getFrameHeader() returns fparamsPtr->windowLog==0 what means that a frame is skippable.
- Note : If fparamsPtr->frameContentSize==0, it is ambiguous: the frame might actually be a Zstd encoded frame with no content.
- For purposes of decompression, it is valid in both cases to skip the frame using
- ZSTD_findFrameCompressedSize to find its size in bytes.
- It also returns Frame Size as fparamsPtr->frameContentSize.
+ For skippable frames ZSTD_getFrameHeader() returns zfhPtr->frameType==ZSTD_skippableFrame.
+ For skippable frames ZSTD_decompressContinue() always returns 0 : it only skips the content.
