Subject: [PATCH] enable btrfs light zstd:1 compression by default at mount

this comes free and is handled gracefully by btrfs according to
pre-compression heuristics, making it an ideal filesystem choice for
tomb volumes that have compressable contents.

A `compress-force=zstd:1` custom option would deactivate the heuristic
test and compress everything.
