* Add ZSTD_setFParams() and ZSTD_setParams()
* Modify ZSTD_setCParams() to use ZSTD_setParameter() to avoid a second path setting parameters
* Add unit tests
* Update documentation to suggest using them to replace deprecated functions
Fixes#3396.
The block splitter confuses sequences with literal length == 65536 that use a
repeat offset code. It interprets this as literal length == 0 when deciding the
meaning of the repeat offset, and corrupts the repeat offset history. This is
benign, merely causing suboptimal compression performance, if the confused
history is flushed before the end of the block, e.g. if there are 3 consecutive
non-repeat code sequences after the mistake. It also is only triggered if the
block splitter decided to split the block.
All that to say: This is a rare bug, and requires quite a few conditions to
trigger. However, the good news is that if you have a way to validate that the
decompressed data is correct, e.g. you've enabled zstd's checksum or have a
checksum elsewhere, the original data is very likely recoverable. So if you were
affected by this bug please reach out.
The fix is to remind the block splitter that the literal length is actually 64K.
The test case is a bit tricky to set up, but I've managed to reproduce the issue.
Thanks to @danlark1 for alerting us to the issue and providing us a reproducer!
