ZSTD_decompress() can decompress multiple frames sent as a single input.
But the input size must be the exact sum of all compressed frames, no more.
In the case of a mistake on srcSize, being larger than required,
ZSTD_decompress() will try to decompress a new frame after current one, and fail.
As a consequence, it will issue an error code, ERROR(prefix_unknown).
While the error is technically correct
(the decoder could not recognise the header of _next_ frame),
it's confusing, as users will believe that the first header of the first frame is wrong,
which is not the case (it's correct).
It makes it more difficult to understand that the error is in the source size, which is too large.
This patch changes the error code provided in such a scenario.
If (at least) a first frame was successfully decoded,
and then following bytes are garbage values,
the decoder assumes the provided input size is wrong (too large),
and issue the error code ERROR(srcSize_wrong).
for FSE symbols.
While it seems to work, the gains are negligible compared to rough maxNbBits evaluation.
There are even a few losses sometimes, that still need to be explained.
Furthermode, there are still cases where btlazy2 does a better job than btopt,
which seems rather strange too.
for proper estimation of symbol's weights
when using dictionary compression.
Note : using only huffman costs is not good enough,
presumably because sequence symbol costs are incorrect.
Make sure that $(INCLUDEDIR) exists before copying the headers there.
Otherwise, the contest of header files is copied over
$(DESTDIR)$(INCLUDEDIR), making it a regular file.
While at it, remove $(DESTDIR)$(INCLUDEDIR) from the list of directories
to create in the install-pc target. The install-pc target does not need
this directory.

It's actually a bug in ZSTD_compressBegin_usingCDict()
which would pass a wrong pledgedSrcSize value (0 instead of ZSTD_CONTENTSIZE_UNKNOWN)
resulting in wrong window size, resulting in downsized seqStore,
resulting in segfault when writing into the seqStore later in the process.
Added a test in fuzzer to cover this use case (fails before the patch).
The new advanced API basically set `requestedParams = appliedParams` when
using a dictionary. This halted all parameter adjustment, which can hurt
compression ratio if, for example, the window log is small for the first
call, but the rest of the files are large.
This patch fixes the bug, and checks that the `requestedParams` don't change
in the new advanced API when using a dictionary, and generally in the fuzzer.
Zstdmt uses prefixes to load the overlap between segments. Loading extra
positions makes compression non-deterministic, depending on the previous
job the context was used for. Since loading extra position takes extra
time as well, only do it when creating a `ZSTD_CDict`.
Fixes#1077.
The `avgJobSize` must not be lower than 256 KB for single-pass mode.
In `zstd.h` we say the minimum value for `ZSTD_p_jobSize` is 1 MB,
so ensure that we always pick a size >= 1 MB.
Found by libFuzzer fuzzer tests with large input limits.
this makes it possible to specify extremely large negative compression levels,
achieving the side effect as "no compression".
It will also be possible to define larger targetlength for ultra compression mode.
There is no adverse side effect due to removing this limit.
Integrate ldm into zstdmt by running it in serial and in order in the first
step of each job, in the same place as the hash gets updated. The input
buffer is sized to fit the whole LDM window and 2 full buffers of slack.
Input buffers cannot be reused until the LDM step is done with them.
After the LDM step is finished, the jobs don't actually have access to the
full window, only the overlap.
Tested on a few different multi-GB files with and without sanitizers,
and with different numbers of threads.
* Computes the XXH hash in the worker threads.
* Workers get a sequence number and wait until ther number shows up. On
error, ensures that its sequence is finished, so future threads don't
get blocked.
* Sets up for ldm integration, which will go in the same spot.
Setting `loadedDictEnd` was accidently removed from `ZSTD_loadDictionaryContent()`,
which means that dictionary compression will only be able to reference the parts of
the dictionary within the window. The spec allows us to reference the entire
dictionary so long as even one byte is in the window.
`ZSTD_enforceMaxDist()` incorrectly always allowed offsets up to `loadedDictEnd`
beyond the window, even once the dictionary was out of range.
When overflow protection kicked in, the check `current > loadedDictEnd + maxDist`
is incorrect if `loadedDictEnd` isn't reset back to zero. `current` could be reset
below the value, which would incorrectly allow references beyond the window. This
bug is present in `master`, but is very hard to trigger, since it requires both
dictionaries and data which triggers overflow correction.
Summary:
Allocate a single input buffer large enough to house each job, as well as
enough space for the IO thread to write 2 extra buffers. One goes in the
`POOL` queue, and one to fill, and then block on a full `POOL` queue.
Since we can't overlap with the prefix, we allocate space for 3 extra
input buffers.
Test Plan:
* CI
* With and without ASAN/UBSAN run zstdmt with different number of threads
on two large binaries, and verify that their checksums match.
* Test on the tip of the zstdmt ldm integration.

Summary:
* Expose the reference external sequences API for zstdmt.
Allows external sequences of any length, which get split when necessary.
* Reset the LDM window when the context is reset.
* Store the maximum number of LDM sequences.
* Sequence generation now returns the number of last literals.
* Fix sequence generation to not throw out the last literals when blocks of
more than 1 MB are encountered.

The overflow protection is broken when the window log is `> (3U << 29)`, so 31.
It doesn't work when `current` isn't around `1U << windowLog` ahead of `lowLimit`,
and the the assertion `current > newCurrent` fails. This happens when the same
context is used many times over, but with a large window log, like in zstdmt.
Fix it by triggering correction based on `nextSrc - base` instead of `lowLimit`.
The added test fails before the patch, and passes after.
* Replaced a non-breaking space and an en dash with a plain space and
a hyphen.
* This means the files are simple ASCII and less likely to run into
codepage issues.
access negative compression levels from command line
for both compression and benchmark modes.
also : ensure proper propagation of parameters
through ZSTD_compress_generic() interface.
added relevant cli tests.
negative compression level trade compression ratio for more compression speed.
They turn off huffman compression of literals,
and use row 0 as baseline with a stepSize = -cLevel.
added associated test in fuzzer
also added : new advanced parameter ZSTD_p_literalCompression
