Feature or enhancement

This is a tracking issue for implementingPEP 784. See the PEP text for more details.

Since the diff is significant (~10k lines) I wanted to split up the PRs a bit.

Implementation Plan:

• Addcompression module just re-exporting existing compression modules. Move the_compression module.
• Add_zstd native module with Unix build config
• Add Windows build config for_zstd(blocked on addinglibzstd to cpython-source-deps) and SBOM config.
• Addzstd Python module with tests
• add NEWS/What's New section
• Add documentation forzstd
• Decide on whether or not to check parameter types for options
• Verify style conformance of C and Python code
  • Python
  • C
• Refactor_train_dict and_finalize_dict to share common code
• Fixtest_zstd failed on ubuntu with free-threading #133885
• Improve error message whenoptions value can't be converted to int
