Doesn't speed optimize this buffer-to-buffer scenario yet.
Still internally defers to streaming implementation.
Also : fixed a long standing bug in ZSTDMT streaming API.
It now only uses compressionParameters as argument.
It produces many changes throughout user code,
though hopefully they tend to be simple :
just provide the cParams part from existing ZSTD_parameters.
Some programs might depend on ZSTD_createCDict_advanced() to pass frame parameters.
This change will force them to revisit this strategy and fix it,
since frame parameters are effectively silently ignored in current version.
does no longer allocate temporary buffers
when there is enough room in dstBuffer to decompress directly there.
(previous method would skip that for 1st chunk only).
Also : fix ZSTD_compressBound() for small srcSize
XXH_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY protection macro is intended to be triggered just before the include.
The main idea is to keep this setting local :
user module shall explicitly understand and accept the static linking restriction
which becomes transparent when triggering the macro at project level.
Global definition also triggers redefinition warnings for user modules which do locally define the macro.
This new version compiles lib and cli without warning when the macro is set globally.
That's not a scenario to be recommended, since it trades a local effect for a global one,
but it was easy enough to provide from zstd side.
There used to be a (very small) chance that
loading prefix from previous segment
would be confused with a real zstd dictionary.
For that to happen, the prefix needs to start
with the same value as dictionary magic.
That's 1 chance in 4 billions if all values have equal probability.
But in fact, since some values are more common (0x00000000 for example)
others are less common, and dictionary magic was selected to be one of them,
so probabilities are likely even lower.
Anyway, this risk is no down to zero
by adding a new CCtx parameter : ZSTD_p_forceRawDict
Current parameter policy : the parameter "stick" to its CCtx,
so any dictionary loading after ZSTD_p_forceRawDict is set
will be loaded in "raw" ("content only") mode,
even if CCtx is re-used multiple times with multiple different dictionary.
It's up to the user to reset this value differently if it needs so.
the minimum size condition size is applied transparently (no warning, no error)
like previous minimum section size condition (1 KB) which still applies.
Previous version was requiring a fairly large initial amount of input data
before starting to create compression jobs.
This new version starts the process much sooner.
fileio.c was continually pushing more content without giving a chance to flush compressed one.
It would block the job queue when input data was accumulated too fast (requiring to define many threads).
Fixed : fileio flushes whatever it can after each input attempt.
Sections 2+ read a bit of data from previous section
in order to improve compression ratio.
This also costs some CPU, to reference read data.
Read data is currently fixed to window>>3 size
