* Bump `WILDCOPY_OVERLENGTH` to 16 to fix the wildcopy overread.
* Optimize `ZSTD_wildcopy()` by removing unnecessary branches and
unrolling the loop.
* Extract `ZSTD_overlapCopy8()` into its own function.
* Add `ZSTD_safecopy()` for `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. It is
optimized for single long sequences, since that is the important
case that can end up in `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. Without this
optimization, decompressing a block with 1 long match goes
from 5.7 GB/s to 800 MB/s.
* Refactor `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Increase the literal copy shortcut to 16.
* Add a shortcut for offset >= 16.
* Simplify `ZSTD_execSequence()` by pushing more cases into
`ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Delete `ZSTD_execSequenceLong()` since it is exactly the
same as `ZSTD_execSequence()`.
clang-8 seeds +17.5% on silesia and +21.8% on enwik8.
gcc-9 sees +12% on silesia and +15.5% on enwik8.
TODO: More detailed measurements, and on more datasets.
Crdit to OSS-Fuzz for finding the wildcopy overread.
Summary: The idea behind wildcopy is that it can be cheaper to copy more bytes (say 8) than it is to copy less (say, 3). This change takes that further by exploiting some properties:
1. it's almost always OK to copy 16 bytes instead of 8, which means fewer copy instructions, and fewer branches
2. A 16 byte chunk size means that ~90% of wildcopy invocations will have a trip count of 1, so branch prediction will be improved.
Speedup on Xeon E5-2680v4 is in the range of 3-5%.
