Update to Zstandard 1.4.5

As usual, the full release notes are found on Github:

https://github.com/facebook/zstd/releases/tag/v1.4.5

Notable changes include:

* Improved decompress performance on amd64 and arm (5-10%
and 15-50%, respectively).
* '--patch-from' zstd(1) CLI option, which provides something like a very fast
version of bspatch(1) with slightly worse compression. See release notes.

In this update, I dropped the 3-year old -O0 workaround for an LLVM ARM bug;
the bug was fixed in LLVM SVN in 2017, but we didn't remove this workaround
from our tree until now.

Update to Zstandard 1.3.4

Includes our local patch to conditionalize use of __builtin_clz(ll) on
Clang's __has_builtin() (which is just defined to false when building with
GCC).

The issue is tracked upstream at https://github.com/facebook/zstd/pull/884 .
Otherwise, these are vanilla Zstandard 1.3.4 files.
