Subject: [PATCH v5] z3fold: add shrinker


This patch set implements shrinker for z3fold, preceded by some
code optimizations and preparations that I thought would be
reasonable to have as separate patches.

This patch set has been verified on x86 and on Qemu emulating
Versatile Express. fio results for the resulting code are:
