4c696613a0 clarified streaming decompression function 
restrictions for ring buffer

ab06ef97bb lz4.h: clarify the risks of using LZ4_decompress_fast() 
The notes about "security guarantee" and "malicious inputs" seemed
a bit non-technical to me, so I took the liberty to tone them down
and instead describe the actual risks in technical terms.  Namely,
the function never writes past the end of the output buffer, so
a direct hostile takeover (resulting in arbitrary code execution
soon after the return from the function) is not possible.  However,
the application can crash because of reads from unmapped pages.

I also took the liberty to describe what I believe is the only sensible
usage scenario for the function: "This function is only usable if the
originalSize of uncompressed data is known in advance," etc.

865bd83e13 Ensure LZ4_DEPRECATED("...") is before LZ4LIB_API 
When using clang++ with std c++14 or c++17 you would get the error "an attribute list cannot appear here" when including "lz4.h" as the visibility attribute is before the c++ attribute.
This ensures that the [[deprecated]] c++ attribute is before everything
else in the function declarations.

252ce14fd2 Don't use C++11 deprecation attribute with clang 
Clang doesn't accept a C++11 attribute following `LZ4LIB_API`.
Use the GNU attribute instead.

25b2435885 Export deprecated symbols 
Deprecated symbols are still a part of ABI and have to be exported,
so mark them with LZ4LIB_API attribute.

7aeecbff71 Explicitly set visibility of public API functions when gcc is used 
Windows builds already limit exporting of functions to those marked
with LZ4LIB_API tag.  The same behaviour could be achieved on other
platforms when a relatively fresh gcc is used.

This change assigns public visibility to all symbols marked with
LZ4LIB_API tag.  When the library is built in -fvisibility=hidden
mode, only these marked symbols will be exported.
