Mostly by Toby Dickenson and Titus Brown. Add an optional argument to a decompression object's decompress() method. The argument specifies the maximum length of the return value. If the uncompressed data exceeds this length, the excess data is stored as the unconsumed_tail attribute. (Not to be confused with unused_data, which is a separate issue.) Difference from SF patch: Default value for unconsumed_tail is "" rather than None. It's simpler if the attribute is always a string.
