------------------------------------
Do you mind submitting a pull request for this? I was actually looking into lz4
and wanted to add one.

> LZ4 is a compression codec of the same ideas as googles snappy, but has some
> advantages:
> * It is faster than snappy with a similar compression ratio
> * The implementation is Apache licensed and not GPL
> It has shown promise in both the lucene and hadoop communities, and it looks
> like its a really easy add to spark io compression.
> Attached is a patch that does this
