OpenBSD does not allow to change the group of a file if the user

xzless: Fix less(1) version detection when it contains a dot.
Sometimes the version number from "less -V" contains a dot,
sometimes not. xzless failed detect the version number when
it does contain a dot. This fixes it.
Thanks to nick87720z for reporting this. Apparently it had been
reported here <https://bugs.gentoo.org/489362> in 2013.
Due to architectural limitations, address space available to a single
userspace process on MIPS32 is limited to 2 GiB, not 4, even on systems
that have more physical RAM -- e.g. 64-bit systems with 32-bit
userspace, or systems that use XPA (an extension similar to x86's PAE).
So, for MIPS32, we have to impose stronger memory limits. I've chosen
2000MiB to give the process some headroom.

CMake: Try to improve compatibility with the FindLibLZMA module.
The naming conflict with FindLibLZMA module gets worse.
Not avoiding it in the first place was stupid.
Normally find_package(LibLZMA) will use the module and
find_package(liblzma 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG) will use the config
file even with a case insensitive file system. However, if
CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_PREFER_CONFIG is TRUE and the file system
is case insensitive, find_package(LibLZMA) will find our liblzma
config file instead of using FindLibLZMA module.
One big problem with this is that FindLibLZMA uses
LibLZMA::LibLZMA and we use liblzma::liblzma as the target
name. With target names CMake happens to be case sensitive.
To workaround this, this commit adds
add_library(LibLZMA::LibLZMA ALIAS liblzma::liblzma)
to the config file. Then both spellings work.
To make the behavior consistent between case sensitive and
insensitive file systems, the config and related files are
renamed from liblzmaConfig.cmake to liblzma-config.cmake style.
With this style CMake looks for lowercase version of the package
name so find_package(LiBLzmA 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG) will work
to find our config file.
There are other differences between our config file and
FindLibLZMA so it's still possible that things break for
reasons other than the spelling of the target name. Hopefully
those situations aren't too common.
When the config file is available, it should always give as good or
better results as FindLibLZMA so this commit doesn't affect the
recommendation to use find_package(liblzma 5.2.5 REQUIRED CONFIG)
which explicitly avoids FindLibLZMA.

Scripts: Fix exit status of xzgrep.
Omit the -q option from xz, gzip, and bzip2. With xz this shouldn't
matter. With gzip it's important because -q makes gzip replace SIGPIPE
with exit status 2. With bzip2 it's important because with -q bzip2
is completely silent if input is corrupt while other decompressors
still give an error message.
Avoiding exit status 2 from gzip is important because bzip2 uses
exit status 2 to indicate corrupt input. Before this commit xzgrep
didn't recognize corrupt .bz2 files because xzgrep was treating
exit status 2 as SIGPIPE for gzip compatibility.
zstd still needs -q because otherwise it is noisy in normal
operation.
The code to detect real SIGPIPE didn't check if the exit status
was due to a signal (>= 128) and so could ignore some other exit
status too.

Scripts: Fix exit status of xzdiff/xzcmp.
This is a minor fix since this affects only the situation when
the files differ and the exit status is something else than 0.
In such case there could be SIGPIPE from a decompression tool
and that would result in exit status of 2 from xzdiff/xzcmp
while the correct behavior would be to return 1 or whatever
else diff or cmp may have returned.
This commit omits the -q option from xz/gzip/bzip2/lzop arguments.
I'm not sure why the -q was used in the first place, perhaps it
hides warnings in some situation that I cannot see at the moment.
Hopefully the removal won't introduce a new bug.
With gzip the -q option was harmful because it made gzip return 2
instead of >= 128 with SIGPIPE. Ignoring exit status 2 (warning
from gzip) isn't practical because bzip2 uses exit status 2 to
indicate corrupt input file. It's better if SIGPIPE results in
exit status >= 128.
With bzip2 the removal of -q seems to be good because with -q
it prints nothing if input is corrupt. The other tools aren't
silent in this situation even with -q. On the other hand, if
zstd support is added, it will need -q since otherwise it's
noisy in normal situations.

xz: Limit --memlimit-compress to at most 4020 MiB for 32-bit xz.
See the code comment for reasoning. It's far from perfect but
hopefully good enough for certain cases while hopefully doing
nothing bad in other situations.
At presets -5 ... -9, 4020 MiB vs. 4096 MiB makes no difference
on how xz scales down the number of threads.
The limit has to be a few MiB below 4096 MiB because otherwise
things like "xz --lzma2=dict=500MiB" won't scale down the dict
size enough and xz cannot allocate enough memory. With
"ulimit -v $((4096 * 1024))" on x86-64, the limit in xz had
to be no more than 4085 MiB. Some safety margin is good though.
This is hack but it should be useful when running 32-bit xz on
a 64-bit kernel that gives full 4 GiB address space to xz.
Hopefully this is enough to solve this:
FreeBSD has a patch that limits the result in tuklib_physmem()
to SIZE_MAX on 32-bit systems. While I think it's not the way
to do it, the results on --memlimit-compress have been good. This
commit should achieve practically identical results for compression
while leaving decompression and tuklib_physmem() and thus
lzma_physmem() unaffected.
