/**
 * Compress a block to a form suitable for writing to disk.
 *
 * Compatibility note: For the moment, we are basing our code on lz4
 * 1.3, which does not specify a *file* format. Therefore, we define
 * our own format. Once lz4 defines a complete file format, we will
 * migrate both |compressFileContent| and |decompressFileContent| to this file
 * format. For backwards-compatibility, |decompressFileContent| will however
 * keep the ability to decompress files provided with older versions of
 * |compressFileContent|.
 *
 * Compressed files have the following layout:
 *
 * | MAGIC_NUMBER (8 bytes) | content size (uint32_t, little endian) | content, as obtained from lz4_compress |
 *
 * @param {TypedArray|void*} buffer The buffer to write to the disk.
 * @param {object=} options An object that may contain the following fields:
 *  - {number} bytes The number of bytes to read from |buffer|. If |buffer|
 *    is an |ArrayBuffer|, |bytes| defaults to |buffer.byteLength|. If
 *    |buffer| is a |void*|, |bytes| MUST be provided.
 * @return {Uint8Array} An array of bytes suitable for being written to the
 * disk.
