Increase the maximum allowed size passed to mprotect(PROT_WRITE)
from 1MB to 16MB. This was necessary with the glibc allocator
in order to allow worker threads to allocate more memory --
which in turn is necessary because of our new use of worker
threads for compression.
Closes ticket #22096. Found while working on #21648.
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.

There were two issues here: first, zstd didn't exhibit the right
behavior unless it got a very large input. That's fine.
The second issue was a genuine bug, fixed by 39cfaba9e2.
This patch refactors our compression tests such that deflate, gzip,
lzma, and zstd are all tested using the same code.
Additionally we use run-time checks to see if the given compression
method is supported instead of using HAVE_LZMA and HAVE_ZSTD.

Bridge lines in torrc can contain key=value settings as per-connection
arguments to a pluggable transport. tor.1.txt hadn't been updated to
reflect this.
This patch adds support for measuring the approximated memory usage by
the individual `tor_zstd_compress_state_t` object instances.

This patch fixes the documentation string for `tor_uncompress()` to
ensure that it does not explicitly mention zlib or gzip since we now
support multiple compression backends.
This patch adds support for measuring the approximated memory usage by
the individual `tor_lzma_compress_state_t` object instances.
The LZMA library provides the functions `lzma_easy_encoder_memusage()`
and `lzma_easy_decoder_memusage()` which is used to find the estimated
usage in bytes.

The `tor_compress_state_t` data-type is used as a wrapper around the
more specialized state-types used by the various compression backends.
This patch ensures that the overhead of this "thin" wrapper type is
included in the value returned by `tor_compress_get_total_allocation()`.
