  Description     : Seekable ZSTD compression format implemented in Golang

Package seekable adds random-access reads to compressed Zstandard data.

It writes compressed streams with a seek table and reads them by
decompressed byte offset through Reader, ReadAt, and Seek. The
resulting stream remains valid Zstandard data, so standard Zstandard
readers can still decode it sequentially.

The wire format is the Zstandard seekable format: compressed frames
followed by a seek table in a skippable frame.

Required by rclone (backend/compress, szstd_helper.go).
Less work to just package the new extra library than to patch rclone to
work around the missing one.

To be maintained by the Go Packaging Team.
