Use airlift non-native implementations for GZIP, LZ0 and LZ4 codecs
@rdblue pointed me to https://github.com/airlift/aircompressor which provides non-native implementations of compression codecs. It claims to be much faster than native wrappers that parquet uses. This Jira is to track the work needed for exploring using these codecs, getting benchmark results and making changes including not needing to pool compressors and decompressors anymore. Note that this doesn't include SNAPPY since Parquet already has its own non-hadoopy implementation for it.

Which "non-hadoopy implementation" is this referring to? Is this referring to SnappyDecompressor in org.apache.parquet.hadoop.codec?
