Decompressing a BackupPC compressed file

The compressed file format is as generated by Compress::Zlib::deflate

To easily decompress a BackupPC compressed file, the script BackupPC_zcat can be found in /usr/share/backuppc/bin. For each file name argument it inflates the file and writes it to stdout.
If a big file has very high compression (meaning it will use too much memory when it is inflated), BackupPC calls the flush() method, which gracefully completes the current compression.
