[3.13] gh-151949: Fix Sphinx reference warnings in Doc/library/lzma.rst (GH-153878) (#154126)

* gh-151949: Fix Sphinx reference warnings in `Doc/library/lzma.rst` (GH-153878)

The lzma module constants (FORMAT_*, CHECK_*, PRESET_*, FILTER_*, MODE_*
and MF_*) were referenced with the :const: role throughout the module
documentation but were never defined as reference targets, producing
"reference target not found" warnings under nitpicky mode.

Document these public constants with .. data:: directives, following the
convention used by the signal, socket and ssl modules, so the existing
references resolve. The now-redundant inline descriptions of the format
and check constants are condensed into linked references.
(cherry picked from commit 1530b38)

+Constants
+---------
+
+The following module-level constants are provided for use as the *format*,
+*check*, *preset* and *filters* arguments of the classes and functions above.
+
+Container formats:
+
+.. data:: FORMAT_XZ
+
+   The ``.xz`` container format.
+
+.. data:: FORMAT_ALONE
+
+   The legacy ``.lzma`` container format.  This format is more limited than
+   ``.xz`` -- it does not support integrity checks or multiple filters.
+
+.. data:: FORMAT_RAW
+
+   A raw data stream, not using any container format.  This format specifier
+   does not support integrity checks, and requires that you always specify a
+   custom filter chain (for both compression and decompression).  Additionally,
+   data compressed in this manner cannot be decompressed using
+   :const:`FORMAT_AUTO`.
+
+.. data:: FORMAT_AUTO
+
+   Used for decompression only.  The container format is detected
+   automatically, so that both ``.xz`` and ``.lzma`` files can be decompressed.
+
+Integrity checks:
+
+.. data:: CHECK_NONE
+
+   No integrity check.  This is the default (and the only acceptable value) for
+   :const:`FORMAT_ALONE` and :const:`FORMAT_RAW`.
+
+.. data:: CHECK_CRC32
+
+   A 32-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check.
+
+.. data:: CHECK_CRC64
+
+   A 64-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check.  This is the default for
+   :const:`FORMAT_XZ`.
+
+.. data:: CHECK_SHA256
+
+   A 256-bit Secure Hash Algorithm.
+
+.. data:: CHECK_UNKNOWN
+
+   The integrity check used by a stream could not yet be determined.  This may
+   be the value of the :attr:`LZMADecompressor.check` attribute until enough of
+   the input has been decoded.
+
+.. data:: CHECK_ID_MAX
+
+   The largest supported integrity-check ID.
+
+Compression presets:
+
+.. data:: PRESET_DEFAULT
+
+   The default compression preset, equivalent to preset level ``6``.
+
+.. data:: PRESET_EXTREME
+
+   A flag that may be bitwise OR-ed with a preset level (``0`` to ``9``) to
+   select a slower but more thorough variant of that preset.
+
+Filter IDs and options:
+
+.. data:: FILTER_LZMA1
+          FILTER_LZMA2
+
+   The LZMA1 and LZMA2 compression filters.  :const:`FILTER_LZMA1` is for use
+   with :const:`FORMAT_ALONE`, while :const:`FILTER_LZMA2` is for use with
+   :const:`FORMAT_XZ` and :const:`FORMAT_RAW`.
+
+.. data:: FILTER_DELTA
+
+   The delta filter.
+
+.. data:: MODE_FAST
+          MODE_NORMAL
+
+   Compression modes that may be used as the ``mode`` option of a filter
+   specifier (see :ref:`filter-chain-specs`).
+
+.. data:: MF_HC3
+          MF_HC4
+          MF_BT2
+          MF_BT3
+          MF_BT4
+
+   Match finders that may be used as the ``mf`` option of a filter specifier
+   (see :ref:`filter-chain-specs`).
