Add MicroLZMA support in order to maximize compression ratios for
specific scenarios. For example, it's useful for low-end embedded
boards and as a secondary algorithm in a file for specific access
patterns.
MicroLZMA is a new container format for raw LZMA1, which was created
by Lasse Collin aiming to minimize old LZMA headers and get rid of
unnecessary EOPM (end of payload marker) as well as to enable
fixed-sized output compression, especially for 4KiB pclusters.
Similar to LZ4, inplace I/O approach is used to minimize runtime
memory footprint when dealing with I/O. Overlapped decompression is
handled with 1) bounced buffer for data under processing or 2) extra
short-lived pages from the on-stack pagepool which will be shared in
the same read request (128KiB for example).

Previously, for each HEAD lcluster, it can be either HEAD or PLAIN
lcluster to indicate whether the whole pcluster is compressed or not.
In this patch, a new HEAD2 head type is introduced to specify another
compression algorithm other than the primary algorithm for each
compressed file, which can be used for upcoming LZMA compression and
LZ4 range dictionary compression for various data patterns.
It has been stayed in the EROFS roadmap for years. Complete it now!

In order to support multi-layer container images, add multiple
device feature to EROFS. Two ways are available to use for now:
- Devices can be mapped into 32-bit global block address space;
- Device ID can be specified with the chunk indexes format.
Note that it assumes no extent would cross device boundary and mkfs
should take care of it seriously.
In the future, a dedicated device manager could be introduced then
thus extra devices can be automatically scanned by UUID as well.

Big pcluster indicates the size of compressed data for each physical
pcluster is no longer fixed as block size, but could be more than 1
block (more accurately, 1 logical pcluster)
When big pcluster feature is enabled for head0/1, delta0 of the 1st
non-head lcluster index will keep block count of this pcluster in
lcluster size instead of 1. Or, the compressed size of pcluster
should be 1 lcluster if pcluster has no non-head lcluster index.
Also note that BIG_PCLUSTER feature reuses COMPR_CFGS feature since
it depends on COMPR_CFGS and will be released together.

Since multiple pcluster sizes could be used at once, the number of
compressed pages will become a variable factor. It's necessary to
introduce slab pools rather than a single slab cache now.
This limits the pclustersize to 1M (Z_EROFS_PCLUSTER_MAX_SIZE), and
get rid of the obsolete EROFS_FS_CLUSTER_PAGE_LIMIT, which has no
use now.

Formal big pcluster design is actually more powerful / flexable than
the previous thought whose pclustersize was fixed as power-of-2 blocks,
which was obviously inefficient and space-wasting. Instead, pclustersize
can now be set independently for each pcluster, so various pcluster
sizes can also be used together in one file if mkfs wants (for example,
according to data type and/or compression ratio).
Let's get rid of previous physical_clusterbits[] setting (also notice
that corresponding on-disk fields are still 0 for now). Therefore,
head1/2 can be used for at most 2 different algorithms in one file and
again pclustersize is now independent of these.

Add a bitmap for available compression algorithms and a variable-sized
on-disk table for compression options in preparation for upcoming big
pcluster and LZMA algorithm, which follows the end of super block.
To parse the compression options, the bitmap is scanned one by one.
For each available algorithm, there is data followed by 2-byte `length'
correspondingly (it's enough for most cases, or entire fs blocks should
be used.)
With such available algorithm bitmap, kernel itself can also refuse to
mount such filesystem if any unsupported compression algorithm exists.
Note that COMPR_CFGS feature will be enabled with BIG_PCLUSTER.

lz4 uses LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX to record history preservation. When
using rolling decompression, a block with a higher compression
ratio will cause a larger memory allocation (up to 64k). It may
cause a large resource burden in extreme cases on devices with
small memory and a large number of concurrent IOs. So appropriately
reducing this value can improve performance.
Decreasing this value will reduce the compression ratio (except
when input_size <LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX). But considering that erofs
currently only supports 4k output, reducing this value will not
significantly reduce the compression benefits.
The maximum value of LZ4_DISTANCE_MAX defined by lz4 is 64k, and
we can only reduce this value. For the old kernel, it just can't
reduce the memory allocation during rolling decompression without
affecting the decompression result.

EROFS filesystem has been merged into linux-staging for a year.
EROFS is designed to be a better solution of saving extra storage
space with guaranteed end-to-end performance for read-only files
with the help of reduced metadata, fixed-sized output compression
and decompression inplace technologies.
In the past year, EROFS was greatly improved by many people as
a staging driver, self-tested, betaed by a large number of our
internal users, successfully applied to almost all in-service
HUAWEI smartphones as the part of EMUI 9.1 and proven to be stable
enough to be moved out of staging.
EROFS is a self-contained filesystem driver. Although there are
still some TODOs to be more generic, we have a dedicated team
actively keeping on working on EROFS in order to make it better
with the evolution of Linux kernel as the other in-kernel filesystems.
As Pavel suggested, it's better to do as one commit since git
can do moves and all histories will be saved in this way.
Let's promote it from staging and enhance it more actively as
a "real" part of kernel for more wider scenarios!
