* Adding fail logging for superblock flow
* Dividing by targetCBlockSize instead of blockSize
* Adding new const and using more acurate formula for nbBlocks
* Only do dstCapacity check if using superblock
* Remvoing disabling logic
* Updating test to make it catch more extreme case of previou bug
* Also updating comment
* Only taking compressEnd shortcut on non-superblock
Fixes a fuzz issue where dictionary_round_trip failed because the compressor was generating corrupt files thanks to zero weights in the table.
* Only setting loaded dict huf table to valid on non-zero
* Adding hasNoZeroWeights test to fse tables
* Forbiding nbBits != 0 when weight == 0
* Reverting the last commit
* Setting table log to 0 when weight == 0
* Small (invalid) zero weight dict test
* Small (valid) zero weight dict test
* Initializing repeatMode vars to check before zero check
* Removing FSE changes to seperate pr
* Reverting accidentally changed file
* Negating bool, using unsigned, optimization nit
* Bump `WILDCOPY_OVERLENGTH` to 16 to fix the wildcopy overread.
* Optimize `ZSTD_wildcopy()` by removing unnecessary branches and
unrolling the loop.
* Extract `ZSTD_overlapCopy8()` into its own function.
* Add `ZSTD_safecopy()` for `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. It is
optimized for single long sequences, since that is the important
case that can end up in `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`. Without this
optimization, decompressing a block with 1 long match goes
from 5.7 GB/s to 800 MB/s.
* Refactor `ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Increase the literal copy shortcut to 16.
* Add a shortcut for offset >= 16.
* Simplify `ZSTD_execSequence()` by pushing more cases into
`ZSTD_execSequenceEnd()`.
* Delete `ZSTD_execSequenceLong()` since it is exactly the
same as `ZSTD_execSequence()`.
clang-8 seeds +17.5% on silesia and +21.8% on enwik8.
gcc-9 sees +12% on silesia and +15.5% on enwik8.
TODO: More detailed measurements, and on more datasets.
Crdit to OSS-Fuzz for finding the wildcopy overread.
Summary: The idea behind wildcopy is that it can be cheaper to copy more bytes (say 8) than it is to copy less (say, 3). This change takes that further by exploiting some properties:
1. it's almost always OK to copy 16 bytes instead of 8, which means fewer copy instructions, and fewer branches
2. A 16 byte chunk size means that ~90% of wildcopy invocations will have a trip count of 1, so branch prediction will be improved.
Speedup on Xeon E5-2680v4 is in the range of 3-5%.

generally U32 and unsigned are the same thing,
except when they are not ...
case : 32-bit compilation for MIPS (uint32_t == unsigned long)
A vast majority of transformation consists in transforming U32 into unsigned.
In rare cases, it's the other way around (typically for internal code, such as seeds).
Among a few issues this patches solves :
- some parameters were declared with type `unsigned` in *.h,
but with type `U32` in their implementation *.c .
- some parameters have type unsigned*,
but the caller user a pointer to U32 instead.
These fixes are useful.
However, the bulk of changes is about %u formating,
which requires unsigned type,
but generally receives U32 values instead,
often just for brevity (U32 is shorter than unsigned).
These changes are generally minor, or even annoying.
As a consequence, the amount of code changed is larger than I would expect for such a patch.
Testing is also a pain :
it requires manually modifying `mem.h`,
in order to lie about `U32`
and force it to be an `unsigned long` typically.
On a 64-bit system, this will break the equivalence unsigned == U32.
Unfortunately, it will also break a few static_assert(), controlling structure sizes.
So it also requires modifying `debug.h` to make `static_assert()` a noop.
And then reverting these changes.
So it's inconvenient, and as a consequence,
this property is currently not checked during CI tests.
Therefore, these problems can emerge again in the future.
I wonder if it is worth ensuring proper distinction of U32 != unsigned in CI tests.
It's another restriction for coding, adding more frustration during merge tests,
since most platforms don't need this distinction (hence contributor will not see it),
and while this can matter in theory, the number of platforms impacted seems minimal.
Thoughts ?
