The MB output can overflow with huge numbers. Most likely these are
invalid .lzma files anyway, but let's avoid garbage output.
lzmadec was adapted from LZMA Utils. The original code with this bug
was written in 2005, over 19 years ago.

(cherry picked from commit 76cfd0a9bb)
For compatibility with C23's [[noreturn]], tuklib_attr_noreturn
must be at the beginning of declaration (before "extern" or
"static", and even before any GNU C's __attribute__).
This commit also moves all other function attributes to
the beginning of function declarations. "extern" is kept
at the beginning of a line so the attributes are listed on
separate lines before "extern" or "static".
The man pages of lzmainfo, xzmore, and xzdec had similar
constructs as the man page of xz had before the commit
eb6ca9854b. Eric S. Raymond
didn't mention these man pages in his bug report, but
it's nice to be consistent.
Those are the same thing, and the former makes it a bit
easier to build the code with other build systems, because
one doesn't need to update the version number into custom
config.h.
This change affects only lzmainfo. Other tools were already
using LZMA_VERSION_STRING.
Most distros want xz linked against shared liblzma, so
it doesn't help much to require --enable-dynamic for that.
Those who want to avoid PIC on x86-32 to get better
performance, can still do it e.g. by using --disable-shared
to compile xz and then another pass to compile shared liblzma.
Part of these static/dynamic tricks were needed for Windows
in the past. Nowadays we rely on GCC and binutils to do the
right thing with auto-import. If the Autotooled build system
needs to support some other toolchain on Windows in the future,
this may need some rethinking.
Lots of content was updated on the xz man page.
Technical improvements:
- Start a new sentence on a new line.
- Use fairly short lines.
- Use constant-width font for examples (where supported).
- Some minor cleanups.
Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for some language fixes.
Separate a few reusable components from XZ Utils specific
code. The reusable code is now in "tuklib" modules. A few
more could be separated still, e.g. bswap.h.
Fix some bugs in lzmainfo.
Fix physmem and cpucores code on OS/2. Thanks to Elbert Pol
for help.
Add OpenVMS support into physmem. Add a few #ifdefs to ease
building XZ Utils on OpenVMS. Thanks to Jouk Jansen for the
original patch.
lzmainfo now links against static liblzma. In contrast
to other command line tools in XZ Utils, linking lzmainfo
against static liblzma by default is dumb. This will be
fixed once I have fixed some related issues in configure.ac.
