Are there any plans to update xz-java to take advantage of newer features in jdk 9+?
For example, Arrays.mismatch[1] leverages vectorized comparisons of 2 byte[]. This could be leveraged in the getMatches methods of BT4 and HC4 as well as the 2 getMatchLen methods in LZEncoder. Another example would be to use a VarHandle to read int values out of a byte[][2], which would be useful for the calcHashes method in Hash234.
