Description
I'm interested in developing support in this package for building a dictionary using Zstd. I would probably start with making automatically generated bindings via Clang.jl for these headers:

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Zstd headers linked in the issue, especially lib/zdict.h and lib/zstd.h, and check how Clang.jl could generate bindings for them. Compare the required dictionary-training API with the package's existing codec structure; the work is done when dictionary building is supported through usable generated bindings and the package's expected tests pass.
