journal: by default do not decompress dat objects larger than 64K

This introduces a new data threshold setting for sd_journal objects
which controls the maximum size of objects to decompress. This is
relieves the library from having to decompress full data objects even
if a client program is only interested in the initial part of them.

This speeds up "systemd-coredumpctl" drastically when invoked without
parameters.
