Out-of-core support for task graphs

In the context of the Hi-BOX project, Airbus factorizes very large compressed matrices, which can not fit in the main memory, and most of the data thus have to be temporarily transferred to the disk, and loaded on-demand. We have thus extended the StarPU out-of-core support to the case of compressed matrices, and improved the eviction heuristics, so as to transfer data to the disk in advance.
