The zstd symlinks, notably `zstdcat`, weren't working as expected
because only the `tests/cli-tests/bin/zstd` wrapper was symlinked. We
still invoked `zstd` with the name `zstd`. The fix is to create a
directory of zstd symlinks in `tests/cli-tests/bin/symlinks` for each
name that zstd recognizes. And when `tets/cli-tests/bin/zstd` is
invoked, it selects the correct symlink to call.
See the test `zstd-cli/zstdcat.sh` for an example of how it would work.

It's a bug in the test itself :
ZSTD_compressBound() as an upper bound of the compress size
only works for data compressed "normally".
But in situations where many flushes are forcefully introduced,
this creates many more blocks,
each of which has a potential to increase the size by 3 bytes.
In extreme cases (lots of small incompressible blocks), the expansion can go beyond ZSTD_compressBound().
This situation is similar when using the CompressSequences() API
with Explicit Block Delimiters.
In which case, each explicit block acts like a deliberate flush.
When employed by a fuzzer, it's possible to generate scenarios like the one described above,
with tons of incompressible blocks of small sizes,
thus going beyond ZSTD_compressBound().
fix : when using Explicit Block Delimiters, use a larger bound, to account for this scenario.
It's a bug in the test itself, in exceptional circumstances (no more space for additional sequence).
There should be enough room for all cases to work fine from now on,
and if not, we have an additional `assert()` to catch that situation.
Add cli-tests to `make test`. This adds a `python3` dependency to `make
test`, but not `make check`. We could make this dependency optional by
skipping the tests if `python3` is not present.
`datagen` was printing a `\n` even when it had no other output. Raise
the output level for the final `\n` to the minimum output level used.
This minor bug was caught by the new testing framework.
Knowing the version of zlib/lz4/lzma we're linking against is very
useful for debugging issues with those libraries, so print it out in the
verbosity 4 version output.
Also print this information at the top of `playTests.sh`.
* Async IO decompression:
- Added --[no-]asyncio flag for CLI decompression.
- Replaced dstBuffer in decompression with a pool of write jobs.
- Added an ability to execute write jobs in a separate thread.
- Added an ability to wait (join) on all jobs in a thread pool (queued and running).
this meant to abstract the sumtype representation required
to transfert `offcode` to `ZSTD_storeSeq()`.
Unfortunately, the sumtype numeric representation is currently a leaky abstraction
that has permeated many other parts of the code,
especially within `zstd_lazy.c` and also within `zstd_opt.c` and `zstd_compress.c`.
While this PR makes a good job a transfering a large nb of call sites
to using the new macros, there are still a few sites where this transformation is more complex,
or where the numeric representation itself it used "as is".
One of the problematics area is the decision to use the numeric format of the sumtype
within the match finders of `zstd_lazy`.
This commit doesn't change the behavior, it only introduces and employes the macros,
but eventually the resulting code remains identical.
At target, if the numeric representation of the sumtype can be completely abstracted
and no other part of the code depends on it,
it will be possible to move it towards something slightly more efficient.
