The change is very similar to that of the LZ4_decompress_safe_continue
case. The only reason a make this a separate change is to ensure that
the fuzzer, after it's been enhanced, can detect the flaw in
LZ4_decompress_fast_continue, and that the change indeed fixes the flaw.

Ring buffer tests were performed only with LZ4_decompress_safe_continue,
leaving my buggy changes to LZ4_decompress_safe_continue undetected.
The tests are now replicated and performed in a similar manner for both
LZ4_decompress_safe_continue and LZ4_decompress_safe_continue (except
for the small buffer case where only one function can be tested,
because part of the dictionary is overwritten with the output).
I also updated function names in the messages (changed them to the
actual ones). The error was reported for LZ4_decompress_safe(),
which I found misleading.

The previous change broke decoding with a ring buffer. That's because
I didn't realize that the "double dictionary mode" was possible, i.e.
that the decoding routine can look both at the first part of the
dictionary passed as prefix and the second part passed via dictStart+dictSize.
So this change introduces the LZ4_decompress_safe_doubleDict helper,
which handles this "double dictionary" situation. (This is a bit of
a misnomer, there is only one dictionary, but I can't think of a better
name, and perhaps the designation is not all too bad.) The helper is
used only once, in LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, it should be inlined
with LZ4_FORCE_O2_GCC_PPC64LE attached to LZ4_decompress_safe_continue.
(Also, in the helper functions, I change the dictStart parameter type
to "const void*", to avoid a cast when calling helpers. In the helpers,
the upcast to "BYTE*" is still required, for compatibility with C++.)
So this fixes the case of LZ4_decompress_safe_continue, and I'm
surprised by the fact that the fuzzer is now happy and does not detect
a similar problem with LZ4_decompress_fast_continue. So before fixing
LZ4_decompress_fast_continue, the next logical step is to enhance
the fuzzer.

I noticed that LZ4_decompress_generic is sometimes instantiated with
identical set of parameters, or (what's worse) with a subtly different
sets of parameters. For example, LZ4_decompress_fast_withPrefix64k is
instantiated as follows:
return LZ4_decompress_generic(source, dest, 0, originalSize, endOnOutputSize,
full, 0, withPrefix64k, (BYTE*)dest - 64 KB, NULL, 64 KB);
while the equivalent withPrefix64k call in LZ4_decompress_usingDict_generic
passes 0 for the last argument instead of 64 KB. It turns out that there
is no difference in this case: if you change 64 KB to 0 KB in
LZ4_decompress_fast_withPrefix64k, you get the same binary code.
Moreover, because it's been clarified that LZ4_decompress_fast doesn't
check match offsets, it is now obvious that both of these fast/withPrefix64k
instantiations are simply redundant. Exactly because LZ4_decompress_fast
doesn't check offsets, it serves well with any prefixed dictionary.
There's a difference, though, with LZ4_decompress_safe_withPrefix64k.
It also passes 64 KB as the last argument, and if you change that to 0,
as in LZ4_decompress_usingDict_generic, you get a completely different
binary code. It seems that passing 0 enables offset checking:
const int checkOffset = ((safeDecode) && (dictSize < (int)(64 KB)));
However, the resulting code seems to run a bit faster. How come
enabling extra checks can make the code run faster? Curiouser and
curiouser! This needs extra study. Currently I take the view that
the dictSize should be set to non-zero when nothing else will do,
i.e. when passing the external dictionary via dictStart. Otherwise,
lowPrefix betrays just enough information about the dictionary.
* * *
Anyway, with this change, I instantiate all the necessary cases as
functions with distinctive names, which also take fewer arguments and
are therefore less error-prone. I also make the functions non-inline.
(The compiler won't inline the functions because they are used more than
once. Hence I attach LZ4_FORCE_O2_GCC_PPC64LE to the instances while
removing from the callers.) The number of instances is now is reduced
from 18 (safe+fast+partial+4*continue+4*prefix+4*dict+2*prefix64+forceExtDict)
down to 7 (safe+fast+partial+2*prefix+2*dict). The size of the code is
not the only issue here. Separate helper function are much more
amenable to profile-guided optimization: it is enough to profile only
a few basic functions, while the other less-often used functions, such
as LZ4_decompress_*_continue, will benefit automatically.

Someone found it would be a great idea to define there a global variable under the very generic name "index".
Cause problem with shadow warnings, so no variable can be named "index" now ...
