Add parameter to specify checkpoint archive compression
The checkpoint archive compression was hardcoded to `archive.Gzip`. There have been requests to make the used compression algorithm selectable. There was especially the request to not compress the checkpoint archive to be able to create faster checkpoints when not compressing it. This also changes the default from `gzip` to `zstd`. This change should not break anything as the restore code path automatically handles whatever compression the user provides during restore. Signed-off-by: Adrian Reber <areber@redhat.com>
