ssh: avoid reading beyond the end of stream when using compression
Compressed streams can be used as part of getbundle. The normal read()
operation of bufferedinputpipe will try to fulfill the request exactly
and can deadlock if the server sends less as it is done. At the same
time, the bundle2 logic will stop reading when it believes it has gotten
all parts of the bundle, which can leave behind end of stream markers as
used by bzip2 and zstd.
To solve this, introduce a new optional unbufferedread interface and
provided it in bufferedinputpipe and doublepipe. If there is buffered
data left, it will be returned, otherwise it will issue a single read
request and return whatever it obtains.
Reorganize the decompression handlers to try harder to read until the
end of stream, especially if the requested read can already be
fulfilled. Check for end of stream is messy with Python 2, none of the
standard compression modules properly exposes it. At least with zstd and
bzip2, decompressing will remember EOS and fail for empty input after
the EOS has been seen. For zlib, the only way to detect it with Python 2
is to duplicate the decompressobj and force some additional data into
it. The common handler can be further optimized, but works as PoC.
