> Key: CASSANDRA-7994

> This patch employs lz4 algo to comress commit logs. This could be useful to
> conserve disk space either archiving commit logs for a long time or for
> conserviing iops for use cases with often and large mutations updating the
> same record.
> The compression is performed on blocks of 64k, for better cross mutation
> compression. CRC is computed on each 64k block, unlike original code
> computing it on each individual mutation.
> On one of our real production cluster this saved 2/3 of the space consumed by
> commit logs. The replay is 20-30% slower for the same number of mutations.
> While doing this, also refactored commit log reading code to CommitLogReader
> class, which i believe makes code cleaner.
