Nick Terrell 4aaa36f74b [regression] Add initial regression test framework
The regression tests run nightly or on the `regression`
branch for convenience. The results get uploaded as the
artifacts of the job. If they change, check the diff
printed in the job. If all is well, download the new
results and commit them to the repo.

This code will only run on a UNIX like platform. It
could be made to run on Windows, but I don't think that
it is necessary. It also uses C99.

* data: This module defines the data to run tests on.
  It downloads data from a URL into a cache directory,
  checks it against a checksum, and unpacks it. It also
  provides helpers for accessing the data.
* config: This module defines the configs to run tests
  with. A config is a set of API parameters and a set of
  CLI flags.
* result: This module is a helper for method that defines
  the result type.
* method: This module defines the compression methods
  to test. It is what runs the regression test using the
  data and the config. It reports the total compressed
  size, or an error/skip.
* test: This is the test binary that runs the tests for
  every (data, config, method) tuple, and prints the
  results to the output file and stderr.
* results.csv: The results that the current commit is
  expected to produce.
