💡 What: Optimized the DeflateEncoder in src/stream.rs by pre-allocating the compressors and output_buffers vectors. Specifically, it now uses .reserve() to pre-allocate the outer vectors and Vec::with_capacity(bound) for the inner output buffers based on the calculated compression bound for each chunk.

🎯 Why: Previously, these vectors were grown incrementally using push(Vec::new()), which led to multiple dynamic memory allocations and re-allocations as the vectors grew and as the output buffers were filled during compression. Pre-allocating with a safe upper bound (Compressor::deflate_compress_bound(chunk_size) + 5) eliminates these reallocations in the hot path of streaming compression.

📊 Measured Improvement: Due to environment restrictions (missing dependencies for benchmarking in offline mode), direct performance measurements could not be obtained. However, pre-allocation is a well-established optimization that reduces the number of calls to the memory allocator and avoids expensive memory copies during vector growth.

Pre-allocate `compressors` and `output_buffers` in `src/stream.rs` to
reduce dynamic memory allocations during streaming compression.
Use `reserve` for outer vectors and `with_capacity` for inner buffers.
