Nick Desaulniers 9f8fe64779 Makefile.debug: support for -gz=zstd
Make DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED a choice; DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_NONE is the
default, DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZLIB uses zlib,
DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZSTD uses zstd.

This renames the existing KConfig option DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED to
DEBUG_INFO_COMPRESSED_ZLIB so users upgrading may need to reset the new
Kconfigs.

Some quick N=1 measurements with du, /usr/bin/time -v, and bloaty:

That's only a 3.11% overall binary size savings over zlib, but at no
performance regression.
