build: compress kernel debuginfo using zstd
zstd with its default settings (compression level -3) compresses better
than bzip2 -9 (which is the default setting), and is an order of magnitude
faster.

I made the following measurements for the most common compression tools
(all standard Debian Buster versions, default flags unless noted
otherwise), using the debug information of a large x86-64 kernel with
ALL_KMODS:

* kernel-debug.tar: 376M
* kernel-debug.tar.gz: 101M, compressed in ~12s
* kernel-debug.tar.bz2: 91M, compressed in ~15s
* kernel-debug.tar.xz: 57M, compressed in ~101s
* kernel-debug.tar.zst: 86M, compressed in ~1s

With zstd, there is still some room for improvement by increasing the
compression, but the slight increase in compression ratio
(22.83% -> 19.46%) does not justify the significant increase in
compression time (about 5 times on my machine) in my opinion.

Note that multithreaded compression (-T argument) does not affect
reproducibility with zstd.

 -----------------------------------------------------

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.

You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python3.5+, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.

1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/

3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
