This reverts commit 9150af4.
Enhance the buffer size calculation for LZF compression to handle worst-case scenarios more effectively. In cases where compression is minimal or none, the buffer size needs to be slightly larger than the original data size. To ensure a safer buffer allocation, the buffer size is increased by 6.25% of the input size, plus an additional 64 bytes, and 3 bytes for termination or minor overhead.

Updated calculation:

`size_t bytesCompressed = bytesIn + (bytesIn / 16) + 64 + 3;`

`bytesIn / 16`: Adds 6.25% of the input size to the buffer.
`+ 64`: Accommodates any additional bytes needed by the LZF algorithm.
`+ 3`: Handles termination and other small additions.

This change ensures more reliable compression performance, even in edge cases.
