Hello,
thanks for the PR. But I have to ask you, do you have a use case for XRLE? In general XRLE has poor compression ratio as it operates in 64bit pieces. I don't work on it any more. If you want higher compression ratio RLE you need an 8bit RLE.

Hi. I wanted to compare XRLE with other compression tools before deciding whether or not to use it. I think in my case, for decompressing binary files on a 32-bit microcontroller, I will use LZSA.

The main reason I decided to test XRLE is because of how simple and well written the code is in comparison to other tools I was looking at.
