When input blocked, xz --flush-timeout=1 would wake up every
millisecond and initiate flushing which would have nothing to
flush and thus would just waste CPU time. The fix disables the
timeout when no input has been seen since the previous flush.

This helps fixing warnings from -Wsign-conversion and makes the
code look better too.

The sandboxing is used conditionally as described in main.c.
This isn't optimal but it was much easier to implement than
a full sandboxing solution and it still covers the most common
use cases where xz is writing to standard output. This should
have practically no effect on performance even with small files
as fork() isn't needed.
C and locale libraries can open files as needed. This has been
fine in the past, but it's a problem with things like Capsicum.
io_sandbox_enter() tries to ensure that various locale-related
files have been loaded before cap_enter() is called, but it's
possible that there are other similar problems which haven't
been seen yet.
Currently Capsicum is available on FreeBSD 10 and later
and there is a port to Linux too.
Thanks to Loganaden Velvindron for help.

It is possible that a signal to set user_abort arrives right
before a blocking system call is made. In this case the call
may block until another signal arrives, while the wanted
behavior is to make xz clean up and exit as soon as possible.
After this commit, the race condition is avoided with the
input side which already uses non-blocking I/O. The output
side still uses blocking I/O and thus has the race condition.

Now the following works as you would expect:
echo foo | xz > foo.xz
echo bar | xz >> foo.xz
( xz -dc --single-stream ; xz -dc --single-stream ) < foo.xz
Note that it doesn't work if the input is not seekable
or if there is Stream Padding between the concatenated
.xz Streams.

The opening of the destination file is now delayed a little.
The coder is initialized, and if decompressing, the memory
usage of the first Block compared against the memory
usage limit before the destination file is opened. This
means that if --force was used, the old "target" file won't
be deleted so easily when something goes wrong very early.
Thanks to Mark K for the bug report.
The above fix required some changes to progress message
handling. Now there is a separate function for setting and
printing the filename. It is used also in list.c.
list_file() now handles stdin correctly (gives an error).
A useless check for user_abort was removed from file_io.c.

It will be used by --list.

a regular file.
Sparse file creation can be disabled with --no-sparse.
I don't promise yet that the name of this option won't
change before 5.0.0. It's possible that the code, that
checks when it is safe to use sparse output on stdout,
is not good enough, and a more flexible command line
option is needed to configure sparse file handling.

to avoid problems on systems with system headers with those
names.

Some minor documentation cleanups were made at the same time.

It now builds with MinGW.

lzma, unlzma, and lzcat in "make install" for backwards
compatibility with LZMA Utils 4.32.x; I'm not sure if this
should be the default though.

- Updated to the latest, probably final file format version.
- Command line tool reworked to not use threads anymore.
Threading will probably go into liblzma anyway.
- Memory usage limit is now about 30 % for uncompression
and about 90 % for compression.
- Progress indicator with --verbose
- Simplified --help and full --long-help
- Upgraded to the last LGPLv2.1+ getopt_long from gnulib.
- Some bug fixes
