Snappy is built with debug assertions enabled

The source files pulled in from google/snappy make use of assert() for debugging, which are expected to be disabled in release builds when following their cmake build process by the presence of -DNDEBUG in the CXXFLAGS.
This flag is not specified for building those files as part of snappy-java. As a result, we discovered (due to a bug in our software) that it is possible to trigger failures of those assertions when using snappy-java, which terminates the process instead of propagating an exception back to Java code.
