- Note : when `value` is an enum, cast it to unsigned for proper type checking.
- @result : 0, or an error code (which can be tested with ZSTD_isError()).

-</b><p> Apply a set of ZSTD_CCtx_params to the compression context.
- This can be done even after compression is started,
- if nbWorkers==0, this will have no impact until a new compression is started.
- if nbWorkers>=1, new parameters will be picked up at next job,
- with a few restrictions (windowLog, pledgedSrcSize, nbWorkers, jobSize, and overlapLog are not updated).
