Performance optimizations and reusable compression context

Key improvements:
- 8-byte match length comparison using XOR + count-trailing-zeros
- Skip-bytes heuristic for incompressible data (21x speedup on random data)
- Pattern extension optimization for small offset copies in decompression
- Reusable compression context (compress_ctx) for 5x speedup on many small messages
- Lookup table preparation for future decompression optimization

Performance improvements:
- Random data compression: 66 MB/s -> 970 MB/s (14x faster)
- HTML decompression: 98 MB/s -> 116 MB/s (1.2x faster)
- URLs decompression: 150 MB/s -> 163 MB/s (1.1x faster)
- Many small messages with context: 18 MB/s -> 100 MB/s (5.3x faster)

New API:
- create_compress_ctx() - create reusable compression context
- compress_with_ctx - compress using reusable context

All 62 tests pass. Compression ratios unchanged.
