This was the case that caused various problems that were fixed in
preceding patches, so it is good to add a test that uses it directly.
In "may_fail" test cases try again with a bigger buffer.
Instead of allocating various buffers on the stack, malloc them.
This is more reliable in case of big buffers, and allows tools like
valgrind and address sanitizer to find overflows more easily.

Add a test that LZ4_decompress_safe_partial does (not) work as
expected, so that if it starts to work at some point, we'll catch
this and adjust our code.

compress_blob took src, src_size, dst and *dst_size, but dst_size
wasn't used as an input parameter with the size of dst, but only as an
output parameter. dst was implicitly assumed to be at least src_size-1.
This code wasn't *wrong*, because the only real caller in
journal-file.c got it right. But it was misleading, and the tests in
test-compress.c got it wrong, and worked only because the output
buffer happened to be the same size as input buffer. So add a seperate
dst_allocated_size parameter to make it explicit what the size of the
buffer is, and to allow test to proceed with different output buffer
sizes.

There are more than enough to deserve their own .c file, hence move them
over.

This converts the stream compression to use the new lz4frame api,
compatible with lz4cat. Previous code used custom headers, so the
compressed file was not compatible with lz4 command line tools.
I considered this the last blocker to using lz4 by default.
Speed seems to be reasonable, although a bit (a few percent) slower
than the lz4 binary, even though compression is the same. I don't
consider this important. It could be caused by the overhead of library
calls, but is probably caused by slightly different buffer sizes or
such. The code in this patch uses mmap, since since this allows the
buffer to be reused while not making the code more complicated at all.
In my testing, this version is noticably faster (~20%) than a naive
single-buffered version. mmap can cause the program to be killed with
SIGBUS, if the underlying file is truncated or a disk error occurs. We
only use this from within coredump and coredumpctl, so I don't
consider this an issue.
Old decompression code is retained and is used if the new code fails
indicating a format error. There have been reports of various smaller
distributions using previous lz4 code, i.e. the old format, and it is
nice to provide backwards compatibility. We can remove the legacy code
in a few versions.
The way that blobs are compressed in the journal is not affected.

off_t is a really weird type as it is usually 64bit these days (at least
in sane programs), but could theoretically be 32bit. We don't support
off_t as 32bit builds though, but still constantly deal with safely
converting from off_t to other types and back for no point.
Hence, never use the type anymore. Always use uint64_t instead. This has
various benefits, including that we can expose these values directly as
D-Bus properties, and also that the values parse the same in all cases.

Otherwise they can be optimized away with -DNDEBUG

It corrrectly handles both positive and negative errno values.

As a followup to 086891e5c1 "log: add an "error" parameter to all
low-level logging calls and intrdouce log_error_errno() as log calls
that take error numbers", use sed to convert the simple cases to use
the new macros:
find . -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -r -i -e \
's/log_(debug|info|notice|warning|error|emergency)\("(.*)%s"(.*), strerror\(-([a-zA-Z_]+)\)\);/log_\1_errno(-\4, "\2%m"\3);/'
Multi-line log_*() invocations are not covered.
And we also should add log_unit_*_errno().

Otherwise the test fails when built with CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG' which disables
assertions.
Tested:
- make check TESTS='test-compress' CPPFLAGS='-DNDEBUG'

They have different size on 32 bit, so they are really not interchangable.

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.

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.
