 QOA - The "Quite OK Audio" format for fast, lossy audio compression
 
 
 -- Data Format
 
 QOA encodes pulse-code modulated (PCM) audio data with up to 255 channels, 
 sample rates from 1 up to 16777215 hertz and a bit depth of 16 bits.
 
 The compression method employed in QOA is lossy; it discards some information
 from the uncompressed PCM data. For many types of audio signals this compression
 is "transparent", i.e. the difference from the original file is often not
 audible.
 
 QOA encodes 20 samples of 16 bit PCM data into slices of 64 bits. A single
 sample therefore requires 3.2 bits of storage space, resulting in a 5x
 compression (16 / 3.2).
 
 A QOA file consists of an 8 byte file header, followed by a number of frames.
 Each frame contains an 8 byte frame header, the current 16 byte en-/decoder
 state per channel and 256 slices per channel. Each slice is 8 bytes wide and
 encodes 20 samples of audio data.
 
 All values, including the slices, are big endian. The file layout is as follows:
 
 struct {
 	struct {
 		char     magic[4];         // magic bytes "qoaf"
 		uint32_t samples;          // samples per channel in this file
 	} file_header;             
 
 	struct {
 		struct {
 			uint8_t  num_channels; // no. of channels
 			uint24_t samplerate;   // samplerate in hz
 			uint16_t fsamples;     // samples per channel in this frame
 			uint16_t fsize;        // frame size (includes this header)
 		} frame_header;          
 
 		struct {
 			int16_t history[4];    // most recent last
 			int16_t weights[4];    // most recent last
 		} lms_state[num_channels]; 
 
 		qoa_slice_t slices[256][num_channels];
 
 	} frames[ceil(samples / (256 * 20))];
 } qoa_file_t;
 
 Each `qoa_slice_t` contains a quantized scalefactor `sf_quant` and 20 quantized
 residuals `qrNN`:

 |  sf_quant  |  qr00  |  qr01  |  qr02  |  qr03   |  qr04   | /  /  |  qr19   |
 `-------------------------------------------------------------\  \------------`
 
 Each frame except the last must contain exactly 256 slices per channel. The last
 frame may contain between 1 .. 256 (inclusive) slices per channel. The last
 slice (for each channel) in the last frame may contain less than 20 samples; the
 slice still must be 8 bytes wide, with the unused samples zeroed out.
 
 Channels are interleaved per slice. E.g. for 2 channel stereo: 
 slice[0] = L, slice[1] = R, slice[2] = L, slice[3] = R ...
 
 A valid QOA file or stream must have at least one frame. Each frame must contain
 at least one channel and one sample with a samplerate between 1 .. 16777215
 (inclusive).
 
 If the total number of samples is not known by the encoder, the samples in the
 file header may be set to 0x00000000 to indicate that the encoder is 
 "streaming". In a streaming context, the samplerate and number of channels may
 differ from frame to frame. For static files (those with samples set to a
 non-zero value), each frame must have the same number of channels and same
 samplerate.
 
 Note that this implementation of QOA only handles files with a known total
 number of samples.
 
 A decoder should support at least 8 channels. The channel layout for channel
 counts 1 .. 8 is:
 
 	1. Mono
 	2. L, R
 	3. L, R, C 
 	4. FL, FR, B/SL, B/SR 
 	5. FL, FR, C, B/SL, B/SR 
 	6. FL, FR, C, LFE, B/SL, B/SR
 	7. FL, FR, C, LFE, B, SL, SR 
 	8. FL, FR, C, LFE, BL, BR, SL, SR
 
 QOA predicts each audio sample based on the previously decoded ones using a
 "Sign-Sign Least Mean Squares Filter" (LMS). This prediction plus the 
 dequantized residual forms the final output sample.

 /* The Least Mean Squares Filter is the heart of QOA. It predicts the next
 sample based on the previous 4 reconstructed samples. It does so by continuously
 adjusting 4 weights based on the residual of the previous prediction.

 The adjustment of the weights is done with a "Sign-Sign-LMS" that adds or
 subtracts the residual to each weight, based on the corresponding sample from 
 the history. This, surprisingly, is sufficient to get worthwhile predictions.
 
 This is all done with fixed point integers. Hence the right-shifts when updating
