Comprimir y Descomprimir un Array de bits

Estas dos funciones sirven para comprimir y descomprimir un array de una forma muy rápida y según el caso puede reducirle el tamaño hasta 10 veces, esto depende del tamaño del mismo o si los datos que este contengan no están comprimidos (por ejemplo no comprimirá el array de una imágen .JPG o un archivo .ZIP, si de una imágen BMP un archivo .EXE). las funciones utilizan las Apis de NTDLL.DLL

* Nota:  Algunos antivirus detectan estas Apis como una posible amenaza, es un dato para tener en cuenta si alguna vez la aplicación es marcada como un virus.
