    xz: avoid overlapping memcpy() with invalid input with in-place 
decompression
    
    With valid files, the safety margin described in lib/decompress_unxz.c
    ensures that these buffers cannot overlap. But if the uncompressed size
    of the input is larger than the caller thought, which is possible when
    the input file is invalid/corrupt, the buffers can overlap. Obviously
    the result will then be garbage (and usually the decoder will return
    an error too) but no other harm will happen when such an over-run occurs.
    
    This change only affects uncompressed LZMA2 chunks and so this
    should have no effect on performance.
