liblzma: Creates Non-resumable and Resumable modes for lzma_decoder.

The new decoder resumes the first decoder loop in the Resumable mode.
Then, the code executes in Non-resumable mode until it detects that it
cannot guarantee to have enough input/output to decode another symbol.

The Resumable mode is how the decoder has always worked. Before decoding
every input bit, it checks if there is enough space and will save its
location to be resumed later. When the decoder has more input/output,
it jumps back to the correct sequence in the Resumable mode code.

When the input/output buffers are large, the Resumable mode is much
slower than the Non-resumable because it has more branches and is harder
for the compiler to optimize since it is in a large switch block.

xzdiff, xzgrep, and xzmore: Rewrite the man pages.

The main reason is a kind of silly one:

xz-man.pot contains strings from all man pages in XZ Utils.
The man pages of xzdiff, xzgrep, and xzmore were under GPLv2
and the rest under 0BSD. Thus xz-man.pot contained strings
under two licences. po4a creates the translated man pages
from the combined 0BSD+GPLv2 xz-man.pot.

I haven't liked this mixing in xz-man.pot but the
Translation Project requires that all man pages must be
in the same .pot file. So a separate xz-man-gpl.pot
wasn't an option.

Since these man pages are short, rewriting them was quick enough.
Now xz-man.pot is entirely under 0BSD and marking the per-file
licenses is simpler.

As a bonus, some wording hopefully is now slightly better
although it's perhaps a matter of taste.

NOTE: In xzgrep.1, the EXIT STATUS section was written by me
in the commit d796b6d7fdb8b7238b277056cf9146cce25db604 so that's

enough with Crypto++, so I don't why I thought the author info

A CLMUL-only build will have the crcxx_clmul() inlined into
lzma_crcxx(). Previously a jump to the extern lzma_crcxx_clmul()
was needed. Notes about shared liblzma on ELF platforms:

  - On platforms that support ifunc and -fvisibility=hidden, this
    was silly because CLMUL-only build would have that single extra
    jump instruction of extra overhead.

  - On platforms that support neither -fvisibility=hidden nor linker
    version script (liblzma*.map), jumping to lzma_crcxx_clmul()
    would go via PLT so a few more instructions of overhead (still
    not a big issue but silly nevertheless).

There was a downside with static liblzma too: if an application only
needs lzma_crc64(), static linking would make the linker include the
CLMUL code for both CRC32 and CRC64 from crc_x86_clmul.o even though
the CRC32 code wouldn't be needed, thus increasing code size of the
executable (assuming that -ffunction-sections isn't used).

Also, now compilers are likely to inline crc_simd_body()
even if they don't support the always_inline attribute
(or MSVC's __forceinline). Quite possibly all compilers
that build the code do support such an attribute. But now
it likely isn't a problem even if the attribute wasn't supported.

Now all x86-specific stuff is in crc_x86_clmul.h. If other archs
The other archs can then have their own headers with their own
is_clmul_supported() and crcxx_clmul().

Another bonus is that the build system doesn't need to care if
crc_clmul.c is needed.

is_clmul_supported() stays as inline function as it's not needed
when doing a CLMUL-only build (avoids a warning about unused function).
