2019-09-15	Move condensed-sparse-file handling to libsquashfs	David Oberhollenzer
	Add another helper function for getting a blocks from a condensed sparse file, then rewrite the data writer to use that instead, using an sqfs_file_t pointer instead of direct file i/o. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2019-09-15	Replace file descriptor IO in data_writer with sqfs_file_t	David Oberhollenzer
	First, this commit moves the create-blocks-from-fd function over to libsquashfs and ports it to work on an sqfs_file_t instead. Second, the function in the data_writer that reads from a file descriptor is adjusted to use an sqfs_file_t instead. Finally, the tools that use it have to be adjusted accordingly.

2019-09-09	Change license of libsquashfs.so	David Oberhollenzer
	This this commit, the code that is compiled and linked to produce libsquashfs.so (and only libsquashfs.so) is released under the terms and conditions of the GNU Lesser General Public license, allowing 3rd party programs to dynamically link against it and still being able to release their programs under a license of their choosing. The libutil library is also relicensed, because it is statically linked into libsquashfs.so. This does not affect the command line programs that remain under the GPLv3. At the current time, the two libraries do not contain any 3rd party contributions and thus do not require anybodys consent other than mine to change the licensing terms (unlike e.g. libfstree.a). The libfstree.a and libsqfshelper.a utility libraries will also remain under the GPLv3 license. Going forward, some parts of libsqfshelper.a will be moved to libsquashfs.so. The parts absorbed by libsquashfs.so will then also have their licensing conditions changed at that time. For the public headers, this commit adds the full boiler-plate comment about the license, for the source files and internal headers, only the SPDX identifier is changed.

2019-09-08	Replace direct file I/O with abstraction layer	David Oberhollenzer
	This should make it easier to use libsquashfs with custom setups that embedd a squashfs image inside something else. Also, it should make it easier to port to non unix-like platforms. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
