This is the fruit of an aborted investigation into using pipes all the
time (it won’t work with the present architecture with translations into a
buffer).

It could be achieved by either a) adding one more stage to write to a file,

descriptors), and ii) reimplementation, if desired, of buffering.

Allow pipe filters to signal when they are interrupted again

Make the interrupted variable, previously static in main,
recode_interrupted, defined in task.c (hence in librecode), so that it can
now be tested at the end of a pipe recode.

Overhaul error handling in transform steps (fixes Debian bug #215285)

Three main principles were applied:

1. Check all return codes (this fixes Debian bug #215285, data is lost when
no space left on device).
2. Ensure that resources are not leaked (memory and file descriptors).
3. Consistently use the recode error signalling mechanism: rather than
arbitrarily signalling failure on an I/O error, set error level
RECODE_SYSTEM_ERROR, and signal failure according to fail_level.

It proved to be useful to merge perform_{memory,pass}_sequence.
