Creation of the Compressor namespace. It encapsulates all the cache
compressors, and other classes used by them.
The following classes have been renamed:
BaseCacheCompressor -> Base
PerfectCompressor - Perfect
RepeatedQwordsCompressor -> RepeatedQwords
ZeroCompressor -> Zero
BaseDictionaryCompressor and DictionaryCompressor were not renamed
because the there is a high probability that users may want to
create a Dictionary class that encompasses the dictionary contained
by these compressors.
To apply this patch one must force recompilation (e.g., by deleting
it) of build/<arch>/params/BaseCache.hh (and any other files that
were previously using these compressors).
