-------------------------------------------
Rebased and fixed nits.
bq. Does it work with DeflateCompressor now?
Yes. It copies the input buffer on heap if it's mmapped.
> Support direct buffer decompression for reads

> Currently when we read a compressed sstable we copy the data on heap then
> send it to be de-compressed to another on heap buffer (albeit pooled).
> But now both snappy and lz4 (with CASSANDRA-7039) allow decompression of
> direct byte buffers. This lets us mmap the data and decompress completely
> off heap (and avoids moving bytes over JNI).
> One issue is performing the checksum offheap but the Adler32 does support in
> java 8 (it's also in java 7 but marked private?!)
> This change yields a > 10% boost in read performance on cstar. Locally I see
> upto 30% improvement.
