Add liblz4 as an optional dependency when requested with --enable-lz4,
and use it in preference to liblzma for journal blob and coredump
compression. To retain backwards compatibility, XZ is used to
decompress old blobs.
Things will function correctly only with lz4-119.
Based on the benchmarks found on the web, lz4 seems to be the best
choice for "quick" compressors atm.
For pkg-config status, see http://code.google.com/p/lz4/issues/detail?id=135.

uncompress_startswith would always decode the whole stream, even
if it did not start with the given prefix.
Reallocation policy was also strange.

Add Compression={none,xz} and CompressionLevel=0-9 settings. Defaults
are xz/6.
Compression=filesystem may be added later.
I picked "xz" for the compression "type", since we might want to add
different compressors later on. XZ is fairly memory and CPU intensive, and
embedded users will likely want to use LZO or some other lightweight compression
mechanism.

This introduces a new data threshold setting for sd_journal objects
which controls the maximum size of objects to decompress. This is
relieves the library from having to decompress full data objects even
if a client program is only interested in the initial part of them.
This speeds up "systemd-coredumpctl" drastically when invoked without
parameters.

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
