Reported by @shulib :
the specification for 4-streams mode
doesn't work when the amount of literals to compress is 5 bytes.
Extending it, it also doesn't work for sizes 1 or 2.
This patch updates the specification and the implementation
to require a minimum of 6 literals to trigger or accept the 4-streams mode.
The impact is expected to be a no-op :
the 4-streams mode is never triggered for such small quantity of literals anyway,
since it would be wasteful (it costs ~7.3 bytes more than single-stream mode).
An informal lower limit is set at ~256 bytes,
so the technical minimum is very far from this limit.
This is just meant for completeness of the specification.
Basic tests for (de)compressing in the following modes:
* file to file
* file to stdout
* stdin to file
* stdin to stdout
These are basic tests, and aren't testing more advanced scenarios, but
it adds the groundwork for more complex tests as needed.
Fixes#3010.
`./run.py --set-exact-output` will update `stdout.expect` and
`stderr.expect` to match the expected output. This doesn't apply to
outputs which use `.glob` or `.ignore`.
The one that isn't pinned is the OSS-Fuzz builder and runner. They don't
offer tagged releases. I could pin to the current master commit, but I'm not
sure how desirable that is.
Tell CMake to explicitly compile our assembly as C code, because we
require it is compiled by a C compiler, and it is only enabled for
clang/gcc.
Fixes#3193.

* Add `Portability.h` to fix min/max issues.
* Fix conversion warnings
* Assert that windowLog <= 23, which is currently always the case.
This could be loosened, but we aren't looking to add new functionality.
Fixes on top of PR #3375 by @eli-schwartz, which added Windows CI for contrib & programs.
When spawning a Windows thread we have small worker wrapper function that translates
between the interfaces of Windows and POSIX threads.
This wrapper is given a pointer that might get stale before the worker starts running,
resulting in UB and crashes.
This commit adds synchronization so that we know the wrapper has finished reading the data
it needs before we allow the main thread to resume execution.
1. If threads are resized the threads' `ZSTD_pthread_t` might move
while the worker still holds a pointer into it (see more details in #3120).
2. The join operation was waiting for a thread and then return its `thread.arg`
as a return value, but since the `ZSTD_pthread_t thread` was passed by value it
would have a stale `arg` that wouldn't match the thread's actual return value.
This fix changes the `ZSTD_pthread_join` API and removes support for returning
a value. This means that we are diverging from the `pthread_join` API and this
is no longer just an alias.
In the future, if needed, we could return a Windows thread's return value using
`GetExitCodeThread`, but as this path wouldn't be excised in any case, it's
preferable to not add it right now.
