Hi!

Brotli 1.0.9 contains a security update, which fixes an "integer overflow" problem [1].

Please update it.


A cygport file for updating is placed at
  https://github.com/cygwin-lem/brotli-cygport/tree/n_1.0.9-1 .


Test packages generated from it are placed at
  https://cygwin-lem.github.io/brotli-cygport/ ,
or
  https://github.com/cygwin-lem/brotli-cygport/tree/n_1.0.9-1_gh-pages .


But the cygport file is not tested under Cygwin CI AppVeyor, yet.
So BUILD_REQUIRES in brotli.cygport might be insufficient.

Regards,

Lem
