align checkpoints with BGZF block boundaries
This would facilitate zero-transcoding htsget on spvcf.gz
. Would need to use htslib BGZF primitives directly inside spvcf
instead of piping into bgzip
.
Fallback idea: add a flag to the decoder directing it to ignore any input rows preceding a checkpoint. Still, for the zero-transcoding case we need a way to guarantee we include the previous checkpoint.
