[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 2/4] util/disk_cache: compress individual cache entries

This reduces the cache size for Deus Ex from ~160M to ~30M for
radeonsi.

I'm also seeing the following improvements in minimum fps in the
Shadow of Mordor benchmark:

no-cache:                    ~10fps
with-cache-no-compression:   ~15fps
with-cache-and-compression:  ~20fps

Note the with cache results are from the second run after closing
and opening the game to avoid the in-memory cache.

Since we only really care about decompression I went with
Z_BEST_COMPRESSION as suggested on irc by Steinar H. Gunderson
who has benchmarked decompression speeds.
