 Description   

Our fork of saslprep, `devtools-shared/saslprep`, generates codepoints and compresses them while during the build step.  This is then written to a source code file as a base64 encoded string.  The saslprep library imports this source code file.

Sometime recently, the gzip compression started returning a different output value for the compressed codepoints.  The current suspicion is that the difference is in a zlip header / magic compression value and that the data itself is the same.

We should investigate the changes and determine the following:

  • When/why did the generated codepoints change? 
  • Which version of the generated codepoints should we use?
