c2c47e24e0 support targetlen==0 with strategy==ZSTD_fast
to mean "normal compression",
targetlen >= 1 now means "disable huffman compression of literals"

a57b4df85f removed literalCompression directive
in this version, literal compression is always disabled for ZSTD_fast strategy.

Performance parity between ZSTD_compress_advanced() and ZSTD_compress_generic()

153bc1c004 removed limit ZSTD_TARGETLENGTH_MAX
this makes it possible to specify extremely large negative compression levels,
achieving the side effect as "no compression".

It will also be possible to define larger targetlength for ultra compression mode.

There is no adverse side effect due to removing this limit.

6a9b41b731 create command --fast[=#]
access negative compression levels from command line
for both compression and benchmark modes.

also : ensure proper propagation of parameters
through ZSTD_compress_generic() interface.

a146ee04ae added negative compression levels
negative compression level trade compression ratio for more compression speed.
They turn off huffman compression of literals,
and use row 0 as baseline with a stepSize = -cLevel.

added associated test in fuzzer

also added : new advanced parameter ZSTD_p_literalCompression

209df52ba2 Changed nbThreads for nbWorkers
This makes it easier to explain that nbWorkers=0 --> single-threaded mode,
while nbWorkers=1 --> asynchronous mode (one mode thread on top of the "main" caller thread).
No need for an additional asynchronous mode flag.
nbWorkers>=2 works the same as nbThreads>=2 previously.
