Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked Microsoft DirectStorage GDeflate material and NVIDIA libdeflate GDeflate branch. Determine what supporting GDeflate as a general supercompression scheme would require in the KTX specification, and separately assess whether combining it with BasisLZ is in scope. Done should be a settled scope and specification plan.
