PR #2784 introduced a bug in the decompressor that caused some valid
inputs to fail to decompress. The bitstream isn't reloaded after the 4X*
loop if the number of elements remaining is small enough, causing us to
read more bits than are available in the bitcontainer.
This was caught by the MSAN fuzzer in OSS-Fuzz because the assembly
implementation isn't used in the MSAN build.

Multiple ZSTD_createDCtx* functions call other (public)
ZSTD_createDCtx* functions, this makes it harder for humans
and compilers to throw out code that is not used.
This farms out the logic into a static function, if a program
only uses a single ZSTD_createDCtx variant, all others can be easily
dropped and the remaining implementation can be specialized.
Commit d7ef97a013b5
("[build] Fix oss-fuzz build with the dataflow sanitizer") broke
build inside Linux-kernel after 'import', as it no longer can
conditionally remove ZSTD_MEMORY_SANITIZER definition from
the #if DEF_A || DEF_B block. This emits -Wundef warning which
can be treated as error.
Split this preprocessor condition into two separate conditions
to fix this.

Switch to a macro `ZSTD_FALLTHROUGH;` instead of a comment. On supported
compilers this uses an attribute, otherwise it becomes a comment.
This is necessary to be compatible with clang's `-Wfall-through`, and
gcc's `-Wfall-through=2` which don't support comments. Without this the
linux build emits a bunch of warnings.
Also add a test to CI to ensure that we don't regress.
the new alignment setting is better for gcc-9 and gcc-10
by about ~+5%.
Unfortunately, it's worse for essentially all other compilers.
Make the new alignment setting conditional to gcc-9+.
changed strategy,
now unconditionally prefetch the first 2 cache lines,
instead of cache lines corresponding to the first and last bytes of the match.
This better corresponds to cpu expectation,
which should auto-prefetch following cachelines on detecting the sequential nature of the read.
This is globally positive, by +5%,
though exact gains depend on compiler (from -2% to +15%).
The only negative counter-example is gcc-9.
pipeline increased from 4 to 8 slots.
This change substantially improves decompression speed when there are long distance offsets.
example with enwik9 compressed at level 22 :
gcc-9 : 947 -> 1039 MB/s
clang-10: 884 -> 946 MB/s
I also checked the "cold dictionary" scenario,
and found a smaller benefit, around ~2%
(measurements are more noisy for this scenario).
Instead of providing a default no-op implementation, check the symbols
for `NULL` before accessing them. Providing a default implementation
doesn't reliably work with dynamic linking. Depending on link order the
default implementations may not be overridden. By skipping the default
implementation, all link order issues are resolved. If the symbols
aren't provided the weak function will be `NULL`.

Following #2545,
I noticed that one field in `seq_t` is optional,
and only used in combination with prefetching.
(This may have contributed to static analyzer failure to detect correct initialization).
I then wondered if it would be possible to rewrite the code
so that this optional part is handled directly by the prefetching code
rather than delegated as an option into `ZSTD_decodeSequence()`.
This resulted into this refactoring exercise
where the prefetching responsibility is better isolated into its own function
and `ZSTD_decodeSequence()` is streamlined to contain strictly Sequence decoding operations.
Incidently, due to better code locality,
it reduces the need to send information around,
leading to simplified interface, and smaller state structures.

The most common information that you want to track between begin() and
end() is the timestamp of the begin function, so you can measure the
duration of the (de)compression call. Allow the tracing library to put
this information inside the `ZSTD_TraceCtx`, so it doesn't need to keep
a global map in this case. If a single uint64_t is not enough, the
tracing library can return a unique identifier (like the context
pointer) instead, and use it as a key in a map.
This keeps the simple case simple.
