Allow to build with the PyPI package "clang" instead of "libclang". 1. It seems to be maintained. 2. In the FreeBSD base system there is no pre-built libclang.so. If you need this library you have to install llvm from ports additionally. 2. On FreeBSD there is no pre-built wheel "libclang" with a packaged libclang.so.

BROTLI DATA COMPRESSION LIBRARY

Brotli is a generic-purpose lossless compression algorithm that compresses data
using a combination of a modern variant of the LZ77 algorithm, Huffman coding
and 2nd order context modeling, with a compression ratio comparable to the best
currently available general-purpose compression methods. It is similar in speed
with deflate but offers more dense compression.

The specification of the Brotli Compressed Data Format is defined in RFC 7932
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7932
