If libtinfl is asked to decompress a large block of invalid/corrupt deflated data, it just spins until locking up the machine.

There was a bug in libtinfl where certain data would be interpreted as a valid deflated stream, but would cause the same block of data to be inflated in an infinite loop.

This has been fixed and better false-positive checking has also been added to libtinfl.is_deflated.
