Enforce 16 MB upper bound of memory usage in LZMA decoder.

This patch changes two things in our LZMA compression backend:

- We lower the preset values for all `compression_level_t` values to
  ensure that we can run the LZMA decoder with less than 65 MB of memory
  available. This seems to have a small impact on the real world usage
  and fits well with our needs.

- We set the upper bound of memory usage for the LZMA decoder to 16 MB.
