Description

Is there currently a binding to ZSTD_flushStream()?

It seems that zstd.FLUSH_BLOCK does allow the decompressor to decode valid data, but not up to the latest data written into the compressor.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing zstd.FLUSH_BLOCK binding and the compressor/decompressor handling around it. Compare that path with the ZSTD_flushStream() API, then add coverage showing that realtime flushing makes the latest written data decodable.
