[PATCH] LZ4: compression/decompression signedness mismatch

[Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@gmail.com>]

LZ4 compression and decompression functions require different
in signedness input/output parameters: unsigned char for
compression and signed char for decompression.

Change decompression API to require unsigned char.
