When adding a new compressor to lzbench, I used to include only the essential files needed for building. This kept the sources smaller and the directories cleaner.
Later, we also started adding missing license files.
Now, I’m wondering if authors of compressors might prefer having all related files—such as documentation and tests—bundled with their codecs.

Please vote:
👍 I prefer smaller lzbench archive and cleaner directories
👎 I prefer to have all files for each compressor as in git repository
🎉 I don't care

I have another one, also related.
You have moved codecs to category directories.
Imo it would be better and simpler if all of them were in `codecs' directory. It would make Makefile simpler, easier to manage, less prone to errors for new codecs - just one template for all. These are just on the top of my head, but there are more.
I don't see any disadvantages.
