In the fast path for decompressing literals, instead of checking
whether there's 16 bytes free and then checking right afterwards
(when having subtracted the literal size) that there are now 
5 bytes free, just check once for 21 bytes. This skips a compare
and a branch; although it is easily predictable, it is still
a few cycles on a fast path that we would like to get rid of.

Benchmarking this yields very confusing results. On open-source
GCC 4.8.1 on Haswell, we get exactly the expected results; the
benchmarks where we hit the fast path for literals (in particular
the two HTML benchmarks and the protobuf benchmark) give very nice
speedups, and the others are not really affected.

However, benchmarks with Google's GCC branch on other hardware
is much less clear. It seems that we have a weak loss in some cases
(and the win for the “typical” win cases are not nearly as clear),
but that it depends on microarchitecture and plain luck in how we run
the benchmark. Looking at the generated assembler, it seems that
the removal of the if causes other large-scale changes in how the
function is laid out, which makes it likely that this is just bad luck.

Thus, we should keep this change, even though its exact current impact is
unclear; it's a sensible change per se, and dropping it on the basis of
microoptimization for a given compiler (or even branch of a compiler)
would seem like a bad strategy in the long run.
