Chris LuandGitHub 8efa32258a feat(volume): X-Seaweedfs-Original-Size hint skips redundant gunzip (#9426)
* feat(volume): X-Seaweedfs-Original-Size hint skips redundant gunzip

The full-chunk gzip pass-through (#9425) fixed source-volume
decompression but moved the cost to the destination volume:
parseUpload still ran util.DecompressData on the forwarded gzipped
bytes, just to learn the uncompressed length so it could record
OriginalDataSize in the needle metadata. For 6-way concurrent 64 MiB
UploadPartCopy that decompress-and-discard pass dominated the
remaining heap profile after the streaming chain landed (~297 MiB
inuse via bytes.Buffer.ReadFrom inside util.GunzipStream).

Add an X-Seaweedfs-Original-Size header on the multipart part. When
the upstream sets it (the s3 chunk-copy fast path always knows the
uncompressed size — it's the source chunk's logical size) and no
Content-MD5 verification is requested (which would require
decompressed bytes to compute against), parseUpload uses the hint
directly and skips the decompress.

Header is X-* prefixed (not Seaweed-*) so it doesn't get auto-stored
as a needle pair by PairNamePrefix.

Backward compatible:
- old s3 servers don't set the header, parseUpload decompresses as
  before
- new s3 servers talking to old volumes: header is ignored, volume
  decompresses
- bad header values (non-numeric, negative, garbage) fall back to the
  existing decompress path

End-to-end repro impact (512 MiB src, 6 parallel UploadPartCopy,
post-#9420/#9421/#9422/#9424/#9425 baseline):

  RSS, round 2:        1149 MiB → 594 MiB
  heap inuse_space:     545 MiB → 349 MiB
  HeapSys:             1.35 GiB → 777 MiB
  TotalAlloc cum:        ~9 GiB → 3.5 GiB

Total reduction from pre-#9420 baseline: 3134 → 594 MiB (-81%).

Test exercises the four matrix corners (hint+no-MD5,
hint+part-MD5, hint+req-MD5, no-hint, garbage-hint) and bounds
allocation per case so a regression that re-introduces the
unconditional decompress fails the hint-present-no-MD5 case.

* review: bound X-Seaweedfs-Original-Size by sizeLimit and uint32

CodeQL on PR 9426 traced a new taint flow: the strconv.Atoi(hint)
value flows into pu.OriginalDataSize -> originalSize -> the existing
uint32(originalSize) cast in volume_server_handlers_write.go:73. The
cast was always there but its input was previously bounded by the
ParseUpload read path (capped at sizeLimit). Adding a user-controlled
hint bypassed that bound, so a malicious header could overflow the
uint32 silently.

Bound the hint at parse time by sizeLimit (the largest needle this
volume will accept anyway) and by math.MaxUint32 (belt-and-suspenders
in case sizeLimit is configured > 4 GiB).
