/**
 * An {@link IntEncoderFilter} which encodes the gap between the given values,
 * rather than the values themselves. This encoder usually yields better
 * encoding performance space-wise (i.e., the final encoded values consume less
 * space) if the values are 'close' to each other.
 * 
 * NOTE: this encoder assumes the values are given to
 * {@link #encode(int)} in an ascending sorted manner, which ensures only
 * positive values are encoded and thus yields better performance. If you are
 * not sure whether the values are sorted or not, it is possible to chain this
 * encoder with {@link SortingIntEncoder} to ensure the values will be
 * sorted before encoding.
