When decompressing some input data, the calculation for the initial starting point and the initial size were incorrect, potentially leading to failures when decompressing contents with LZ4. These initialization points are fixed in this commit, bringing the logic closer to what exists for gzip and zstd. The contents of the compressed data is clear (for example backups taken with LZ4 can still be decompressed with a "lz4" command), only the decompression part reading the input data was impacted by this issue. This code path impacts pg_basebackup and pg_verifybackup, which can use the LZ4 decompression routines with an archive streamer, or any tools that try to use the archive streamers in src/fe_utils/. The issue is easier to reproduce with files that have a low-compression rate, like ones filled with random data, for a size of at least 512kB, but this could happen with anything as long as it is stored in a data folder. Some tests are added based on this idea, with a file filled with random bytes grabbed from the backend, written at the root of the data folder. This is proving good enough to reproduce the original problem.
