zstd not even being in meta-oe is a surprise that should be corrected.

btrfs-tools would be the only user that comes immediately into my mind,
but zstd support in the kernel btrfs driver is relatively new and not
yet widely used.

zstd has already gotten a lot of traction in the Open Source world,
but regarding adding it to oe-core right now one could argue either way.
