Gao Xiang 7c35de4df1 erofs: Zstandard compression support
Add Zstandard compression as the 4th supported algorithm since it
becomes more popular now and some end users have asked this for
quite a while [1][2].

Each EROFS physical cluster contains only one valid standard
Zstandard frame as described in [3] so that decompression can be
performed on a per-pcluster basis independently.

Currently, it just leverages multi-call stream decompression APIs with
internal sliding window buffers.  One-shot or bufferless decompression
could be implemented later for even better performance if needed.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
