[PATCH 3/3] ARM: compressed: Enable ZSTD compression

With the previous two commits, it is possible to enable ZSTD
in the decompressor stub for 32-bit ARM.

Unfortunately, ZSTD decompression has been quite slow in my tests
(on ARM926EJ-S, ARMv5T):

 - LZO:  7.2 MiB,  6 seconds
 - ZSTD: 5.6 MiB, 60 seconds
