New LZMA utils major

We're proud to announce or first public alpha release of LZMA utils, this contains many features.
* New header format: adds magic bytes, filter support and CRC32
* liblzma: written in C, has zlib-like API, supports filters and both old and new header formats
N* ew command line tool: similar to the one included in 4.32.0beta1, but now written in C; allows finetuning all the compression settings like the original "lzma" from LZMA SDK
* License: GNU LGPL (liblzma) and GNU GPL (rest)
