2.0.4

[Dead2]

This update fixes a possible corruption during inflate, so far only observed when using pigz.
Multiple fixes improve compatibility with various platforms.

Unfortunately the fix for the inflate bug reduces decompression performance by about ~18-20% (benchmarked on x86-64), since this stable release focuses on bugfixes.
A more comprehensive refactoring of the involved code will be pushed to develop soon, and will appear in release 2.1.0 when that is ready.
