Switch pg_dump to use compression specifications Compression specifications are currently used by pg_basebackup and pg_receivewal, and are able to let the user control in an extended way the method and level of compression used. As an effect of this commit, pg_dump's -Z/--compress is now able to use more than just an integer, as of the grammar "method[:detail]". The method can be either "none" or "gzip", and can optionally take a detail string. If the detail string is only an integer, it defines the compression level. A comma-separated list of keywords can also be used method allows for more options, the only keyword supported now is "level". The change is backward-compatible, hence specifying only an integer leads to no compression for a level of 0 and gzip compression when the level is greater than 0. Most of the code changes are straight-forward, as pg_dump was relying on an integer tracking the compression level to check for gzip or no compression. These are changed to use a compression specification and the algorithm stored in it. As of this change, note that the dump format is not bumped because there is no need yet to track the compression algorithm in the TOC entries. Hence, we still rely on the compression level to make the difference when reading them. This will be mandatory once a new compression method is added, though. In order to keep the code simpler when parsing the compression specification, the code is changed so as pg_dump now fails hard when using gzip on -Z/--compress without its support compiled, rather than enforcing no compression without the user knowing about it except through a warning. Like before this commit, archive and custom formats are compressed by default when the code is compiled with gzip, and left uncompressed without gzip.

Improve type handling in pg_dump's compress file API After 0da243fed0 got committed, we've received a report about a compiler warning, related to the new LZ4File_gets() function: compress_lz4.c: In function 'LZ4File_gets': compress_lz4.c:492:19: warning: comparison of unsigned expression in '< 0' is always false [-Wtype-limits] 492 | if (dsize < 0) The reason is very simple - dsize is declared as size_t, which is an unsigned integer, and thus the check is pointless and we might fail to notice an error in some cases (or fail in a strange way a bit later). The warning could have been silenced by simply changing the type, but we realized the API mostly assumes all the libraries use the same types and report errors the same way (e.g. by returning 0 and/or negative value). But we can't make this assumption - the gzip/lz4 libraries already disagree on some of this, and even if they did a library added in the future might not. The right solution is to define what the API does, and translate the library-specific behavior in consistent way (so that the internal errors are not exposed to users of our compression API). So this adjusts the data types in a couple places, so that we don't miss library errors, and simplifies and unifies the error reporting to simply return true/false (instead of e.g. size_t).

* Close an open file handle.
Improve type handling in pg_dump's compress file API After 0da243fed0 got committed, we've received a report about a compiler warning, related to the new LZ4File_gets() function: compress_lz4.c: In function 'LZ4File_gets': compress_lz4.c:492:19: warning: comparison of unsigned expression in '< 0' is always false [-Wtype-limits] 492 | if (dsize < 0) The reason is very simple - dsize is declared as size_t, which is an unsigned integer, and thus the check is pointless and we might fail to notice an error in some cases (or fail in a strange way a bit later). The warning could have been silenced by simply changing the type, but we realized the API mostly assumes all the libraries use the same types and report errors the same way (e.g. by returning 0 and/or negative value). But we can't make this assumption - the gzip/lz4 libraries already disagree on some of this, and even if they did a library added in the future might not. The right solution is to define what the API does, and translate the library-specific behavior in consistent way (so that the internal errors are not exposed to users of our compression API). So this adjusts the data types in a couple places, so that we don't miss library errors, and simplifies and unifies the error reporting to simply return true/false (instead of e.g. size_t). While at it, make sure LZ4File_open_write() does not clobber errno in case open_func() fails.
