It was left in but marked as deprecated as part of #132 to avoid breaking API changes.
However, #130 is going to mark a 0.7.0 release, so we can remove it altogether for simplicity.
- Switch to streaming decompression via `flate2`. Aside from performance improvements and lower RAM consumption, this fixes a bug where `max_uncompressed_length` was precalculated for a single tile but then used as a hard limit on the whole data, failing to decompress any tiled images.
- Deprecate `InflateError` - this was used for wrapping `miniz_oxide` raw status, but `flate2` already reports them as `io::Error` instead. This makes errors from both Lzw and Deflate modes more consistent - they're all now just `io::Error`.
- Add support for new `Deflate` tag in addition to `OldDeflate` - format-wise it's same Zlib, and on practice decodes successfully with the same underlying code.
- Slightly simplify partial reads from the `Reader` by using the `std::io::copy` helper instead of doing it manually.
Fixes#131.
Tag representations are not decoder- or encoder-specific, so should live
in their own module accessible to both for reuse. The decoder::ifd
module remains since this module is mainly dedicated to decoding the
IFD.
It encapsulates the implementation detail of holding a miniz_oxide
status within. The derived traits are not too extensive for other
possible representations as well.
