Add autoconf tests for size_t and ssize_t. Sort-of resolves public issue 79;
it would solve the problem if MSVC typically used autoconf. However, it gives
a natural place (config.h) to put the typedef even for MSVC.

When we compare the number of bytes produced with the offset for a
backreference, make the signedness of the bytes produced clear,
by sticking it into a size_t. This avoids a signed/unsigned compare
warning from MSVC (public issue 71), and also is slightly clearer.
Since the line is now so long the explanatory comment about the -1u
trick has to go somewhere else anyway, I used the opportunity to
explain it in slightly more detail.
This is a purely stylistic change; the emitted assembler from GCC
is identical.

In the fast path for decompressing literals, instead of checking
whether there's 16 bytes free and then checking right afterwards
(when having subtracted the literal size) that there are now
5 bytes free, just check once for 21 bytes. This skips a compare
and a branch; although it is easily predictable, it is still
a few cycles on a fast path that we would like to get rid of.
Benchmarking this yields very confusing results. On open-source
GCC 4.8.1 on Haswell, we get exactly the expected results; the
benchmarks where we hit the fast path for literals (in particular
the two HTML benchmarks and the protobuf benchmark) give very nice
speedups, and the others are not really affected.
However, benchmarks with Google's GCC branch on other hardware
is much less clear. It seems that we have a weak loss in some cases
(and the win for the “typical” win cases are not nearly as clear),
but that it depends on microarchitecture and plain luck in how we run
the benchmark. Looking at the generated assembler, it seems that
the removal of the if causes other large-scale changes in how the
function is laid out, which makes it likely that this is just bad luck.
Thus, we should keep this change, even though its exact current impact is
unclear; it's a sensible change per se, and dropping it on the basis of
microoptimization for a given compiler (or even branch of a compiler)
would seem like a bad strategy in the long run.

Make the two IncrementalCopy* functions take in an ssize_t instead of a len,
in order to avoid having to do 32-to-64-bit signed conversions on a hot path
during decompression. (Also fixes some MSVC warnings, mentioned in public
issue 75, but more of those remain.) They cannot be size_t because we expect
them to go negative and test for that.
This saves a few movzwl instructions, yielding ~2% speedup in decompression.
