Christopher Tate b100cbf178 Support streaming of compressed assets > 1 megabyte
Compressed assets larger than one megabyte are now decompressed on demand
rather than being decompressed in their entirety and held in memory.  Reading
the data in order is relatively efficient, as is seeking forward in the stream.
Seeking backwards is supported, but requires reprocessing the compressed data
from the beginning, so is very inefficient.

In addition, the size limit on compressed assets has been eliminated.

Android Utility Function Library

If you need a feature that is native to Linux but not present on other
platforms, construct a platform-dependent implementation that shares
the Linux interface.  That way the actual device runs as "light" as
possible.

If that isn't feasible, create a system-independent interface and hide
the details.

The ultimate goal is *not* to create a super-duper platform abstraction
layer.  The goal is to provide an optimized solution for Linux with
reasonable implementations for other platforms.
