Add zstd compression and decompression support to ubifs. zstd at its
fastest level compresses almost as well as zlib, while offering much
faster compression and decompression, approaching lzo speeds.

This patch is based on the patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9892631/

zstd source repository: https://github.com/facebook/zstd
Do you have numbers on how much we gain for UBIFS on a typical embedded
device?

Thanks,

This is a RFC patch. I will post the test results after the full function completing.

Thanks a lot.
