	/**
	 * \brief       Run-length encoder remote control
	 *
	 * The Subblock filter has an internal run-length encoder (RLE). It
	 * can be useful when the data includes byte sequences that repeat
	 * very many times. The RLE can be used also when a Subfilter is
	 * in use; the RLE will be applied to the output of the Subfilter.
	 *
	 * Note that in contrast to traditional RLE, this RLE is intended to
	 * be used only when there's a lot of data to be repeated. If the
	 * input data has e.g. 500 bytes of NULs now and then, this RLE
	 * is probably useless, because plain LZMA should provide better
	 * results.
	 *
	 * Due to above reasons, it was decided to keep the implementation
	 * of the RLE very simple. When the rle variable is non-zero, it
	 * subblock_data_size must be a multiple of rle. Once the Subblock
	 * encoder has got subblock_data_size bytes of input, it will check
	 * if the whole buffer of the last subblock_data_size can be
	 * represented with repeats of chunks having size of rle bytes.
	 *
	 * If there are consecutive identical buffers of subblock_data_size
	 * bytes, they will be encoded using a single repeat entry if
	 * possible.
	 *
	 * If need arises, more advanced RLE can be implemented later
	 * without breaking API or ABI.

	 * When the Subblock filter is initialized, this variable must be
	 * LZMA_SUBFILTER_NONE or LZMA_SUBFILTER_SET.
	 *
	 * When subfilter_mode is LZMA_SUBFILTER_NONE, the application may
	 * put Subfilter options to subfilter_options structure, and then
	 * set subfilter_mode to LZMA_SUBFILTER_SET. No new input data will
	 * be read until the Subfilter has been enabled. Once the Subfilter
	 * has been enabled, liblzma will set subfilter_mode to
	 * LZMA_SUBFILTER_RUN.
	 *
	 * When subfilter_mode is LZMA_SUBFILTER_RUN, the application may
	 * set subfilter_mode to LZMA_SUBFILTER_FINISH. All the input
	 * currently available will be encoded before unsetting the
	 * Subfilter. Application must not change the amount of available
	 * input until the Subfilter has finished. Once the Subfilter has
	 * finished, liblzma will set subfilter_mode to LZMA_SUBFILTER_NONE.
	 *
	 * If the intent is to have Subfilter enabled to the very end of
	 * the data, it is not needed to separately disable Subfilter with
	 * LZMA_SUBFILTER_FINISH. Using LZMA_FINISH as the second argument
	 * of lzma_code() will make the Subblock encoder to disable the
	 * Subfilter once all the data has been ran through the Subfilter.
	 *
	 * After the first call with LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH or LZMA_FINISH, the
	 * application must not change subfilter_mode until LZMA_STREAM_END.
	 * Setting LZMA_SUBFILTER_SET/LZMA_SUBFILTER_FINISH and
	 * LZMA_SYNC_FLUSH/LZMA_FINISH _at the same time_ is fine.
	 *
	 * \note        This variable is ignored if allow_subfilters is false.
