Description

I have installed snappy via brew and that says it installed fine.

But when I pip install python-snappy and then run the following script:

```
import snappy

compressed = snappy.compress("some data")
assert "some data" == snappy.uncompress(compressed)
```
it fails with:
```
(venv) ~/code/projectblue-api/src (feature/ARM/build-stuff) $ python test_snappy.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
