/*
 * Inflate (decompress) the specified number of bytes, or until the next
 * Z_BLOCK/Z_STREAM_END is reached.
 *
 * This is a complicated function which implements the core decompression
 * routine, and is used by both _zran_expand_index, and zran_read. It reads
 * compressed data from the file, starting from the specified compressed
 * offset, inflates (a.k.a. decompresses) it, and copies the decompressed
 * data to the provided output buffer.
 *
 * This function is complicated because it is used in three different
 * situations:
 *   - When generating the index (by zran_expand_index)
 *   - When starting from an index seek point and discarding compressed data
 *     to find a requested seek location (by zran_read)
 *   - When actually reading and decompressing data (by zran_read).
 *
 * This function may be used in a re-entrant or non-re-entrant manner,
 * depending on the flags which are used. In the latter (more likely) case,
 * various pieces of information representing the current inflation state are
 * stored in fields of the zran_index_t struct.
 *
 * Specifically, this function does the following:
 *
 *   1. Figures out the starting offsets into the compressed/uncompressed
 *      streams. If the ZRAN_INFLATE_USE_OFFSET flag is active, the index
 *      point preceding the specified offset is used as the starting point.
 *      If there is no such point, ZRAN_INFLATE_NOT_COVERED is returned.  If
 *      ZRAN_INFLATE_USE_OFFSET is not active, index->inflate_cmp_offset and
 *      index->inflate_uncmp_offset are used as the starting point.
 *
 *   2. Create a read buffer, if ZRAN_INFLATE_INIT_READBUF is active. A
 *      reference to the read buffer is stored at index->readbuf.  If
 *      ZRAN_INFLATE_INIT_READBUF is not set, the function assumes that the
 *      read buffer already exists.
 *
 *   3. If the ZRAN_INFLATE_CLEAR_READBUF_OFFSETS flag is active, the read
 *      buffer offset (index->readbuf_offset) and length (index->readbuf_end)
 *      fields are both set to 0. Otherwise, the function assumes that the
 *      current offset/length values are valid.

 *   4. Initialises the z_stream struct, if ZRAN_INFLATE_INIT_Z_STREAM is
 *      active. Otherwise, the function assumes that the z_stream struct is
 *      already initialised and ready to be used.
 *
 *   5. Read some compressed data from the file into the read buffer as needed.
 *
 *   6. Pass that data to the zlib inflate function, and store the resulting
 *      uncompressed data in the provided data buffer. If the end of a GZIP
 *      stream is reached for the first time, it is validated against the
 *      CRC/file size stored in the GZIP footer (unless ZRAN_SKIP_CRC_CHECK
 *      is active).
 *
 *   7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until one of the following is true:
 *
 *       - The requested number of bytes have been read
 *
 *       - The output buffer is full
 *
 *       - End of file is reached
 *
 *       - ZRAN_INFLATE_STOP_AT_BLOCK is active, and a block is reached
 *
 *   8. If ZRAN_INFLATE_FREE_READBUF is active, the file read buffer is
 *      de-allocated.
 *
 *   9. If ZRAN_INFLATE_FREE_Z_STREAM is active, the memory used by the
 *      z_stream struct is de-allocated (via the zlib inflateEnd function).
 *
 * The control flags can be a combination (bitwise OR) of the following:
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_INIT_Z_STREAM:         Initialise the z_stream struct
 *                                         before inflation.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_FREE_Z_STREAM:         Clean up the z_stream struct
 *                                         after inflation.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_INIT_READBUF:          Allocate a read buffer before
 *                                         inflation.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_FREE_READBUF:          Free the read buffer after
 *                                         inflation.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_USE_OFFSET:            If set, use the provided offset
 *                                         parameter; otherwise, use the
 *                                         offsets stored in the index
 *                                         struct.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_CLEAR_READBUF_OFFSETS: If set, clear the read buffer
 *                                         offset/length stored in the index
 *                                         struct, otherwise assume that they
 *                                         are valid.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_STOP_AT_BLOCK:         If set, stop inflation when a
 *                                         deflate block boundary is reached
 *                                         (the Z_BLOCK flag is passed to the
 *                                         zlib inflate function). Otherwise,
 *                                         inflation will continue until one
 *                                         of the conditions in step 7, above,
 *                                         are met.

 * parameters are respectively updated to contain the total number of
 * compressed bytes that were read from the file, and total number of
 * decompressed bytes that were copied to the data buffer.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_OK:             Inflation was successful and the requested
 *                                  number of bytes were copied to the provided
 *                                  data buffer.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_NOT_COVERED:    The requested compressed data offset is not
 *                                  covered by the index.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_OUTPUT_FULL:    The provided data buffer has been filled.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_BLOCK_BOUNDARY: A deflate block boundary was encountered.
 *                                  This will only be returned if the
 *                                  ZRAN_INFLATE_STOP_AT_BLOCK flag is active.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_EOF:            The end of file has been reached.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_CRC_ERROR:      The CRC or uncompressed data size in the
 *                                  GZIP footer does not match the CRC/size
 *                                  that was calculated.
 *
 *   - ZRAN_INFLATE_ERROR:          A critical error has occurred.
