Please support seekable format

[joshtriplett]

There's a seekable zstd format, which makes it possible to seek to and decompress segments independently. It includes a jump table at the end for all the segments.

https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/dev/contrib/seekable_format/zstd_seekable_compression_format.md

I'd love to have support for this format in zstd-rs, both to compress (with an API to mark the end of a segment) and to decompress (parsing the jump table and allowing decompression of individual segments).

There's a separate binding crate https://lib.rs/crates/zstd-seekable which can be used as a reference implementation

any updates?

cc @gyscos Are you interested in having this seekable zstd in this repository/crate?

Looking at the code, there's a ZSTD_seekable and ZSTD_seekable_compressor, so it looks like just two more bindings to add.

If it is just binding, then I could give it a shot.
